Eddie George doesn't scare me in the slightest. I'm pleased that the Cowboys picked him up actually.
This guy has no breakaway ability and the most I've seen him do in the past two years after having the ball handed off to him, is to lean into the pile and gain two-three yards. It's so lame. |

The only thing that bothers me is TO. It's going to be a tough challenge for our corners this year to cover him. I would think Springs would be the one covering him since he's bigger and faster than Smoot.
Other than that, Eddie George doesn't worry me at all. |

My biggest worry (don't laugh) is Kurt Warner to NY. I don't see an immediate threat as a team, but all the pressure is off. He wants to play, there is no QB controversy. The situation is clear as to his roll and Eli's roll. It puts him back in the position he was in his 1st season in St Louis.
T.O. - he's a great player, but I think you have to still look at McNabb... I never get any love on this, but he has to be one of the most over-rated players of all time in the NFL. I think people will see this season with no more excuses that he isn't a great QB, just a great athelete. The move for T.O. and Kearse would be bigger if they didn't loose their starting CBs. That's big in this division. Coles-Gardner, Keyshaun-Bryant-Glenn, Toomer-Hilliard-Shockey. I don't think they have the defensive backfield to keep up anymore. Eddie George - it would be a bigger deal if they had a QB they can rely on. Carter had a good season, but I think the controversy and competition will be bad on him. They will focus more on Henson than him and he wont have a great season. NY - nothing too big other than Warner, which will be a bother, but not anything to win the NFC East. They lost alot on defense too which will make it difficult to defend the run (Barrow, Griffin, Jones) and too much within the division.

There is a reason George got released buy Houston uh I mean Tennessee. He's lost a few steps over the last couple yrs. He will help the Cowgirls but I doubt that much!
On the other hand T.O to philly scares the hell out of me. If he can keep his attitude in check I think he is the best WR in the NFL! wich is really going to help there offense alot! T.O sould have gone to Bal.

If he stays healthy then yes, I believe he's a concern also. Kurt Warner is adapting to a new system, and he doesn't have the weapons he had in St Lou. Plus has he fully recovered from his hand injury? I see no threat in Warner at all. |

I think George will take the pressure off the Dallas QB - making their offense that much smoother.
I think - although not prime-time players - Vinny T and Keyshawn Johnson will add a lot of depth to their team. I think we can beat them - but I'm unhappy with their off-season signings.... |

Let's agree!
Let's agree about this year:
TO will help McNabb, but McNabb still isn't Joe Montanna! Kearse will have an injury by the 3rd week, the e-girls overpaid him, and they will not win the NFC Championship again! The cowroids got E. George to keep QC alive. It won't work! Me-shawn will cry because he didn't get the ball enough! The gints will have a firm grip on last place in the division. No Offense, and the 1 man defense will falter. HOF Coach Gibbs improves our O, our D, and our record considerably, and we get into the playoffs! Ole'BallCoach winds up with the NawthCaCalacky tarhils! I forgot, adejimoh gets cut!

As much as I want to agree backrow. The Eagles are still the team to beat, and they upgraded on both sides of the ball. The Cowboys have a great defense. The Giants well, they won't win more than 7 games guaranteed. |
