GSoF: 2007 NFC East Preview

Dallas Cowboys

I hate to admit it, but this team looks good. I also hate to admit it, but T.O. still has it. As much as I hate this team and all that it stands for, they have a shot at doing something great this year. Although Tony Romo is scarred for life after last year's playoff loss, he, unfortunately, will make a comeback. Everything rests on the shoulders of new coach Wade Phillips, and it seems like the players are accepting him. Even #81...

"Well, he calls me Terrell. He calls me by my name. He treats us like men. When a guy treats you like that, you want to play harder for him."

Just out of curiosity, what did Parcells call you, T.O.? Butterfingers?

Prediction: 11-5 (NFC East Division Champion)


Don't cry man, Jessica Simspson will come back - Just ask Nick Lachey.

Philadelpha Eagles

I have never seen anyone with such a big chip on his shoulder as Donovan McNabb, First, there was drama with T.O. Last year, he was producing HUGE numbers until he tore a ligament in his knee last year ending his illustrious season. During the offseason, the Eagles drafted pretty boy Kevin Kolb and released McNabb's good friend Jeremiah Trotter. And how does McNabb feel?

"I'm shocked," McNabb said. "I'm truly shocked."

I feel as though this man has nothing to prove, yet everyone wants him to prove something. After Jeff Garcia finished the season last year with a playoff win for the Eagles, Philly managers and fans alike are questioning whether McNabb is still necessary for this team to succeed. He knows the truth, his teammates know the truth, and now its time for the NFL to know the truth. One man doesn't make a team, but he can make the heart and soul of the team. With everything Donovan has gone through, it's his time to shine.


PLEASE not again!

Prediction: 10-6 (NFC Wild Card)

Washington Redskins

It's gotta be better than 5-11, right? Definitely. Jason Campbell is looking better and he has some Mighty Mite WRs (Santana Moss, Antwaan Randle El, Brandon Lloyd). Injury-prone Clinton Portis will get some much-needed help in the backfield from Ladell Betts and their defense now has the top young safety tandem in the NFL with the drafting of LaRon Landry to play alongside Sean Taylor.

But how far can an inexperienced QB take a team? Not far enough!

Prediction: 8-8


He can do more than this, right?

New York Giants

Every time I watch Eli Manning in action, I swear he's about to piss his pants. This man lacks the confidence to lead this team to the playoffs and is nothing like his brother or his father. I give him credit for speaking out against Tiki Barber, but that won't save him or his team this year. Tiki Barber retired, Michael Strahan is back but still unhappy, Amani Toomer is still trying to recover from his injury, and their defense in general is lacking.

Prediction 7-9

By the way, remember how the Chargers were going to draft Eli Manning but were then forced to trade him to the Giants for Phillip Rivers and two future draft picks? Those draft picks turned into Shawne Merriman and Nate Kaeding - both Pro Bowlers. How does it feel now Giants?


What are you so confused about? It's pretty simple man, nobody likes you.

Who do you think is going to be the NFC East champion?

uh
I think that Dallas is gonna be a mess this year. Romo still needs another year before he's reliable enough to take them anywhere further than they went last year.

I give it to philly. I think McNabbs due for a monster year.

switch around philly and dallas' respective predictions and you pretty much have how I feel.

Most Overrated and Overhyped Division in the NFL
Iggles: 14-2
McNabb is the man!

NY Football Giants: 8-8
If Eli's last name wasn't Manning he wouldn't be starting right now.

Washington Redskins: 6-10
Aside from Portis this team is Booooooooooooooorrrrrrrrring.

Dallas Cowgirls: 0-16
Love TO, HATE the Cowboys- more than the Mavs actually.

Hoping for Dallas
I agree that the Cowboys should be able to take the division this year. Love them or hate them, they look good.

But there are unanswered questions, especially because of today's roster cuts. They've made some strange decisions at OLB and CB that could come back to bite. And as always, injuries can ruin any team in the NFL these days, in this salary cap age of little depth.

The Eagles always seem to make a run at it, so I wouldn't be surprised if they took the NFCE, but if I had to bet, I think they go down this year.

the cowboys suck
wade is a soft ass coach, read that article.  You have to have some amount of discipline or respect going on to do anything.

HE CURSED AT THE TEAM ONE TIME! this is the makings of a great coach.

Tony Romo is a freaking moron. When some people were late for a practice, he said, (Quoting the article posted above from espn.com) "Wade made those players stand up in front of the whole team and explain what they did," Romo said. "They had to be accountable to their teammates. Wade doesn't treat you like a kid. But I think this tells everyone you'd better not act like a kid."

Does anyone think that he doesnt sound like a 12 year old in that quote?  Wow Romo, that Phillips sure knows how to draw the line.  Hes soft.

Also, gee, you think theyre gonna not respect your rules when you act like a fat marshmallow wade?

this guy blew with the bills, hes gonna blow with the cowboys, this division absolutely sucks.

eagles to win it
