NFC East breakdown.

I feel like no one believes that the eagles can win the NFC east but I am going to break it down by position, and that will show they are plenty good enough to win the division

QB:

This is where i differ from most, everyone LOVES Romo but his numbers were pedestrian both years. He throws too many pics and does not come up when it counts. If Mcnabb can stay healthy I would put them like this

1.Eagles

2.Cowboys

3.Giants

4.Redskinsl

RB: At the running back position the clear cut best back is westbrook, and with Buckhalter and Booker backing him up the Eagles take the cake at RB. I love the way marion barber runs the ball, but he is very overrated many people watch espn and see barber and go wow this guys great. However, he only had 975 yards, he needs to be the feature back for a full year and put up bigger numbers then that. People also forget how good Portis is and the redskins have betts too so they are in front of the cowboys, and then i put jacobs and the giants at the back of the pack even though that is very good RB corps.

1.Eagles

2.Redskins

3.Cowboys

4. Giants

Wr/TE: This is where the eagles sturggle, they have no number one, can beat double coverage, wide reciever, niether do the redskins, but the giants and cowboys do(Owens and Plaxico). Owens is better then Plaxico and the cowboys also have other option i.e. Witten, and craytons alright too. Then its between the redskins and eagles for three ands four. While I love curtis and the addition of desean jackson they are not great, at least not yet for desean. The redskins do have moss, cooley, and then about 5 number 2/3 wide recievers. so this poistoin goes

1.Cowboys

2.Giants

3.Redskins

4. Eagles

OL: This is an interesting position. the O-lines for all the teams have been streaky but i put them like this

1.eagles

2.cowboys

3. Giants

4. Redskins

DL: At DL this division is stacked names like, Osi and Jayston taylor, and demarcus ware(I know LB but hes a pass rusher), Trent Cole, Justin Tuck, Greg Eliis. They are all very good or great pass rushers. At DT last year Mike patterson was one of the best in the league leading all D-linemen in tackles. I can't really tell yo how good the years were for the otehr teams DTs but i know the D-lines in general and they go like this, but they are all very good.

1.Giants

2.Cowboys

3.Eagles

4.Redskins

LB:I differ here from many people. I know no one knows the eagles linebackers but I think they are going to be playmakerrs all year this year, they are young talented athletic playmakers. The cowboys have very good Lbs, I do not like Zach thomas as much as most, too slow and old, but he is still a geart LB. The Giants have pierce but that is about it ecspecially after losing kawika mitchell, and the redskins have LFB and marcus washington. I rank the LBs, but i think by the end of the season the eagles could have the best corps in the division and for years to come.

1.Cowboys

2.Redskins

3.Eagles

4.Redskins

DB: In my opinion this is the most clear cut, the Eagles have the best with three pro bow caliber corners, then the cowboys with a lot of talent at the position, then the redskins, and then I just dont think the giants are very good in teh secondary.

1.Eagles

2.cowboys

3.Redskins

4. Giants

Then special teams. this will shock everyone but I think the eagles now ahve the best special teams on the division. Desean jackson is a wizard of return and we all know how good david akers can be, and if you've been to leigh you can see Sav Rocca's potential. Then plus the free-agent signings of the free agent specialist it makes for a great unit I rank um like this.

1.Eagles

2.Cowboys

3.Redskins

4.Giants

From thos rankings it is clear that the eagles have the talent to win this division. They just have to put this together on the field. The NFC representitive in the Suber Bowl will be from this division, my opinion I think it will be the Eagles or Cowboys, can not wait to watch those two teams play. As jessica simpson(or Justin timberlake) said at the espys, Romo Romo Wherefor art thouh Romo.
