That is why I am a skeptic til I see results on the field anymore. I forget the thread I posted on last night, but I said we have looked like the superior team against most of our divisional rivals or at least we were evenly gunned with them only to be on the losing end of the stick at the final gun for the past several seasons. We should have at least had 2-3 seasons of sweeping the Boys and Gmen since Gibbs came back, just going by our roster. I think it is great we might have actually assembled a great WR Corp that will be a big threat, but we can't forget our aged O line. Also I still am concerned with our secondary and the depth there. Actually depth all around might be a problem. I am very excited about the Giants game. If we beat them convincingly, it will set the tone for the whole season. IF we lose it won't mean much, but it might bring us back to earth a bit with regards to our expectations. Thing is with this revolving carousel of new coaches/players in the Snyder era, the fans have had many reasons to be excited, only to witness mediocrity in the end.
