Gonzo is THE only receiver on that team. Kennison is just the neighborhood whore and if Hall were that good, he'd be more than just a return man pretending he's a WR.

I think all of us have a little homer in them, but I try to keep the Haterade to a minimum. The NFC East WILL be the most competitive conference in the league without a doubt and one key injury here or there could put a team in the basement for good.

For a quick review:

Washington Redskins - Just to elaborate a little bit more on the team, the offensive line has two of the best tackles in the game, one of the best guards, an improved center and let's hope Dockery continues to improve. The defensive line is beast with Griffin in the middle. I have this feeling Montgomery will be in a heavy rotation by the middle of the year.

Philadelphia Eagles - They worry me the most. They had a great draft and got some really great players. They might not be great this year, but give that line some time to gel and they'll be good (but fortunately for the rest of the division McNabb has only a few years left in him). Brown will continue to improve and be a pretty decent player. Basically, the Eagles season will hinge on if Reid wants to be a dumbass or not. It's ALL coaching this year.

Dallas Cowboys - Time will only tell if the offensive line will return healthy from those serious injuries it had. Both running backs are average at best and TO is the only WR of any quality on the team. Witten will again be one of their most reliable receiving threats with TO being double teamed. Just like Strahan and McNabb, Bledsoe is another year older and another year slower. The Cowboys REALLY should have invested in a QB unless they think Henson has improved enough in NFL Europe. The defense will be above average next year, but nothing special. Their defense is the most overhyped part of their team.

I've already elaborated on the Giants, so we'll leave it at that.

Dude, I'm not even kidding. He has tattoos of all the teams that he's played for. That's like a slut getting a guy's name tattooed on her arm for every guy that's slung it to her.

I agree overall, a couple of key injuries may be the difference. Glenn is still pretty decent for the pokes, he'll burn us if ST bites, though if ST stays at home he can scare Glenn into some drops. If Dallas' O line can play like they did early last year, they'll be tough.
Philly still has a solid core roster, you just have to wonder what the real personality of the team is. Will last year's mess linger? or will McNabb & other vets take charge as the team's leaders & bring back their winning ways? Its tough to predict our division, but I wouldn't be surprised if the cellar team finishes 8-8.

[TheMalcolmConnection]

Honestly, I see the Eagles improving to 8-8 or 9-7. They'll need some time to gel and Westbrook and McNabb are their only stars left. The rest of the defense is aging. We can at least look forward to having a young(ish) team.

Good re-cap, Malc. The only thing that worries me about the Cowboys is that T.O.'s presence immediately makes life easier for Glenn and co. And one on one Glenn 'aint half bad. And we've seen what Witten can do after the catch. He's very capable!

On defense they have a couple of guys who could be dangerous too.

All in all I think all of these teams are separated by one or two games.

[TheMalcolmConnection]

Honestly, I don't see Witten run a lot after the catch. I don't know what it is about him, but he ALWAYS seems open and has loads of room to run, but he goes down like a ton of bricks. It's all good though. I give it 5-6 games before TO is a distraction. Even though this year he might play nice. We'll see.

Anyone see Lavar's interview on Quite Frankly on ESPN. Its now on ESPN Motion check it out.

[warriorzpath]

yup, the most significant thing he said was: that he covered for gibbs. When Stephen A. Smith asked him how, he responded by saying he is still in the nfl. I guess implying that he would get himself in trouble or rock the boat by elaborating.

He needs to get off the microphone and do something with the giants before he starts talking again.

I was thinking the same thing (he looks like crap) - he just doesn't seem like the same lavar before he got injured.

I know it's new york, but it's also Lavar wanting the attention, which at this point is undeserving. To me, when you start off somewhere you start off humble and then prove yourself - and THEN you can talk - but until then just work your butt off.

As a comparison, look at Ramsey handling himself so far in New York. I can always respect someone that HAS respect for others.

[RobH4413]

My uncle is an orthopedic surgeon and has spoken with some people close w/ lavar.

According to him his knee can never be 100%. He implied that most athletes of his age, w/ the severity of his injury don't rebound. Just another little tid-bit.
-----------------

also another quick question. I remember hearing a while back that he wasn't disclosing records about his surgery or something. Am I just making things up, or was there any legitimacy to that? Thanks-

Next thing you will hear is that he covered for Joe Pa too

Beware of the Redskin curse LaVar just ask Antonio Pierce and Fred Smoot how it all worked out last year.............
