Some are just to optimistic as saying that the skins are tacking the division that just noit realistic to many holes.

So here's my insight hope you see it in the objective way It's based on acquisitions, reports, paper roaster and team development.

Eagles 10-6: I agree on this 1 the Eagles domination of the NFC East start this season there's 2 many disconfort in their players to keep dominating, they type of managment they have played for teh last 8 years in wich they cut players that are becomming 2 expensive and developing new players is starting to hurt them, the players becasue of the TO downfall has erupt thsi disconfort all the team players are starting to feel under appreciated for their selfinesh toward the team goal, also TO is making division and rivalies between their own group, Their WR corps is poor, if TO plays will hurt them and if he doesn't it will also hurt them maybe less. But they still have a great defense and I still think they will take the division this year just because dallas can't beat them they have their number as easy as that maybe split the series but no way Dallas comes away with both.

Dallas 10-6: I do believe of the Redskins and Dallas, Dallas made the best moves freee agency and draft and have a more consistent and team atmosphere so far they didn't lose any major player trought free agency insted they drop some bad apples (Wiley) and they are a better team that 2 years ago (10-6) season they have a complete RB corp that they haven't had in years (JJ,A-Train,Barber and Thompson wach out for this kid he's fast) their wr corps is back full straignt even thought it's old it can still produce KJ 19 yard shy of 1000 last year they upgraded their OL and the DL it's just Redicusly talented. they got 3 first round talent (maybe 4 Burnett it's developing into a starter) Canty who fel into hte 4th round becasue of injuries is proving every one wrong. And we really improved or secondary wich was our achillies heel we were a 1 dimensional defense no need to run they could find everyone open. Also even thought Bledsoe isn't a top 15 qb it's an upgrade from testaverde and believe me he's pumped he has a lot to prove. Our own demonds are RT and Bledsoe if he does just his job will be ok if not we can say bye bye to the season.

Redskins: 8-8 tops sorry but to many holes and discomfort in this team I don't believe Ramsey is the Guy to many mental mistakes as Carter wasn't the guy for us? The worst flaw of your team is your owner (hey we have our own charecter) but yours hurt you every single year there's almost no continuity in this team you lose mayor players every year Smooth and Pierce to key players lost you downgraded your WR corps Coles for Moss and Gardner traded. You have disgruntled players that don't believe in the coach and systems he's trying to apply (coles, garder and Arrignton) 2 are gone but the last 1 the Core of thsi defese feels betrayed because of a roster bonus and because greg williams is changing his role on the defense. You have a great O-line, Portis is going to show his value this year and have a excellent front seven on the D. But as a told you your secondary is week I still don't understand the draft move to the first round Campbell when everyone belived he was a 2nd round talent and no ones showed real interest before the draft, Taylor even thought has a lot of talent and can be a Pro Bowler he has TO written all over his face asking for a raise after 1 year off the field issues etc... he's going to be a mayor headaches for rivals and teamates. I really don't see parcell comeback in gibbs has been out of the game to long and don't see the same passion sorry I see improvment but you're just there yet and hope your owner stop losing great team and overall players and stops overpaying free agents that are just names and not mayor contributions.Also like the Eagles has domminated us we have domminated you so like I said in the upper explanation I believe Cowboys will take them both or split at best playing the numbers thats all.

Giants 6-10: I'm not sold out on Eli I saw him play in College and never saw anything amasing I just don't believe he has the same talent as his brother and passion for the game I do believe he's in there for the check maybe I'm wrong but I just see a spoiled child, Barber is a verry underated rb Brandon Jacobs seems to be a amayor acquisition OL upgrade LB core Upgrade wr corps upgrade but still 2 young in some areas qb learning curve and not so good Secondary I just don't see it for them yet. and the mayor reason they only win 6 is taht of last year 6 wins Elli only had 1 the last game vs the Boys in a game that didn't count for the boy's

Hope you use it as a analisys ain't trying to trash talk or anything just pointing out an outside view.

I'll take it as such. I'm aware my own predjudices are built into my analysis, and I think your predjudices are built into yours.

My rule of thumb is that any team that relies on the immediate impact of rookies to succeed is likely to be disappointed. Roethlisberger aside, it's extremely rare that a rookie starter makes enough of a positive impact on a team to make it a contender. By your own admission, you're expecting four rookies to impact the defense alone. That's a lot to ask - especially on a team where the veterans will largely be playing in a new defensive scheme, and won't have the same comfort level they normally would. Add the fact that though Julius Jones performed at a very high level for the 8 games he was healthy, he has never withstood the rigors of a 16 game season, and it would be unrealistic to projected last year's numbers over a 16 game span (394 carries is a little much for a 205 lb back). I'll stick with my number - but it's just my opinion.
