Eagles & Cowboys how good are they?

I heard today in the radio how both Dallas and Philly fielded secondaries that have first round draft choices (i.e. Pacman Jones, Lito Sheppard) and/or high money free agents acquisition (i.e. Asante Samuel). I think it was interesting how both QB lit up the other team's secondary. Hopefully our team saw something in this game and find a way to exploit these secondaries. Also, I hope our secondary passes a big test they are going to have this Sunday against the Cards.

it was a shootout for sure and the skins can,t afford a shootout in my opinion.
both the eagles and the boyz have some firepower but i,d say the boyz have more and that presents us with potential problems but in this division anything goes....cause i think the nfc east is getting back to it,s roots again..
but the monday night game was great but the popcorn i had wasn,t too good,lol

should be an interesting year in this division thats for sure.wait and see.

Don't forget that the Redskins have a lease with the city for FedEx field. Paying for that stadium is mostly in the hands of team generated revenues.

If those revenues go to another stadium, the next foreclosure will be on FedEx field. And Snyder would get sued to his tennis shoes to pay the remaining costs.

There will be no new stadium until the lease expires on FedEx.


Good points, but we don't know what the lease says. Maybe Danny has some wiggle room to move.

I don't think we will know how good they are until they play someone we have played or when they play us. We held the Giants to only 16 points. Then the Giants score some 40 points on the Rams. What I'm getting at is I'm betting our D-fense is better then we think and our offense is getting better on their learning curve. If our D can hold Dallas or the Eagles to low scores then we have a chance to compete. Although it was a shoot out between both the Eagles and Dallas their D-fense did not impress me with their stopping abilities. I only hope our D can find a way to stop them or slow them considerably to allow us to score more then them.

Both teams are as only good as their last game... They like all teams will have their ups and downs... just look at how Dallas fell apart two years straight in the playoffs.

The NFC East is the most difficult, toughest, division there is...The Skins will do battle in the division and will take a share of victories too this season....No worries.

but snyder is a master of the deal.if he wants something bad enough,he always finds a way to get it.

You guys are pipe-dreaming if you think that the Redskins will have a new stadium before the lease expires with the city.

Because you know who will foot the bill if Snyder leaves FedEx early for a new stadium wiggle room or not? The taxpayers, that's who. The taxes will be raised to pay for a stadium that no one will be using.

Then if you think game tickets are expensive now, just wait until Snyder moves early to this "new" stadium you speak of and has to pay MILLIONS in penalties.

You think Snyder is going to pay that? Nope, it will be you, the die hard Redskin fan when Snyder jacks up the ticket prices to not only pay for the new stadium you are dreaming about, but also jacks the prices up more to pay for the fines and penalties he will inherit for breaking the lease with the city.

The thing that you are forgetting is that it was hell to get the Stadium put there to begin with. Nobody wanted that stadium there. Real Estate in that location is not too shabby. I'm sure that they could work something out to put something else there, that would generate weekly revenue and reduce the Sunday Traffic in Landover. Maybe a mall, a couple of parking garages, and a small airport?

That does not answer the question of how FedEx will be paid for. Just because a stadium gets torn down for a mall of an airport does not make the cost of the stadium go away. Someone will still have to pay for it.

Where does it come from? Not that mall or airport you speak of, those monies will be used towards operating costs of the airport and mall.

If Snyder pulls out of FedEx early for a new stadium, who pays for FedEx? That debt does not go away, someone (probably the fans, and definitely the taxpayers) will be paying that bill.

He pays for it by selling it of course.
