Whatifsports NFC East Preview - Giants Among 'Boys

I like those rankings

this is the most unrealistic way possible...its so systematic and as everyone knows the NFL isnt like that...upsets happen all the time its not the favorites that always come out on top...the giants and the cowboys were ranked 15-1 in their absolute record because they are favored to win every game besides the games against eachother when they play away....so the eagles and redskins who arent favorites in most games lose because they arent favorites? no i do not think the eagles are by far the best team in the division but i dont think the redskins with JIM ZORN as their head coach are better then them...and i think the eagles with their upgrades are just as good as the giants and cowboys....just becuase the giants won the superbowl doesnt mean eli manning turned into an elite quarterback...he had a hot playoff run and confidence built up but please dont tell me he is going to lead this team to be elite in the NFL..he lead the league in interceptions last year!!!! everyone forgot about that because of the superbowl victory.....this is the worst right here...predicting scores already????????? enough said

ya it's definetly a stretch the way they are predicting all of this to turn out...I guess my hope is that it really does turn out that way LOL...In reality though I think the giants r a little overrated while philly and the skins r both underrated...I really believe it will be a toss up b/c I don't believe three teams come outta the east this yr...I believe dallas wins the division and that it's a fight for the other spot with philly just beating out the other two...birdsfan536 I just can't wait till this season starts already!!

Yea, can't let things like this list get to you. But if you think about it, they are just looking at percentages. 8-8 turns into 10-6 with just two upsets. I can't see cleveland taking a game from us, and when was the last time we got swept by dallas. we should take 4 of 6 divisional games, accounting for two losses, @dallas and @NY, but i guess we'll see.

05 was the last time we swept u guys

thanks to terrell owens and mike mcmahon! we won like 1 divisional game that year i think

we wont lose to the skins...the giants wont sweep us and the cowboys wont sweep us so we got atleast 4 divisional wins i agree.....plus cleveland is like the saints i think they could be a possible one year thing although it cant be determined yet....its just that all the team is is a high powered offense....just like the saints were....jamal lewis wont have another monster year will he? is derek anderson for real? i dont know....but we'll see....i think we go 12-4 or 11-5 and i dont think the cowboys are that much better than us...idk why they think they are sooo good because they do not have that good a defense and i hope we can exploit that this year

u don't think our defense is that good??? I know our secondary was suspect at times last yr but I believe we fixed that with jones and jenkins...and u had mcmahon for ONE series in that game at the linc in 05 and mcnabb played the entire game in dallas

BirdsFan, you really are full of wishful thinking. Really.

You think you teams jumps from 8-8 to 12-4 in the best division in football? What has your team done to get better other than sign Asante Samuel? McNabb already expressed that DeSean Jackson will only be involved with special teams his first year.

As for the Saints, they weren't a one-time good team. They were a one-time bad team. Now with the signing of Jeremy Shockey, they are going to have a ridiculous offense with a better defense.

BirdsFan, You say JIM ZORN like you somehow have secret knowledge that he's a horrible coach. You don't know how he will perform. From what I've seen of Training Camp and of interviews, I like him so far, but you can't automatically assume that a rookie head coach is a horrible one.

Joe Gibbs was a rookie back in the '80's, and he went to four Superbowls.
