Long time

I believe the Skins look promising this year.

Campbell will be in his second year with the same offensive coordinator for the first time in his career. Last year he only really had problems with short passes, and he should be able to correct that pretty easily. Apparently, he has been living out of Redskins Park and watching a lot of film. He might not set the world on fire, but I don't see him as being an obstacle to our success.

With the exception of LG, the offensive line has been together for quite a while. A lot can be said about consistency on the offensive line. Although we lost our LG Dockery, we should be able to compensate for the loss. I expect our offensive line to play at the same level they did last year.

Of course, our offensive backfield is in great shape with Portis healthy and Betts to spell him. We've got plenty of options at receiver, and with Cooley at TE it will be difficult for the opposing defense to cover everyone. I think it will come down to whether or not Campbell can beat the blitz consistently. That shouldn't be too difficult if we have another successful season rushing the ball.

I think the biggest question is the defense. Will G Williams' new simplified scheme be able to turn this underachieving defense around? Will the additions to the secondary improve a unit that was terrible last year? Will we get consistent pressure on the QB?

I think the addition of MLB Fletcher will make a HUGE impact on the entire defense. He'll make sure that everyone is where they need to be -- a big thing that was missing last year. I think the entire defense will be more comfortable and players will trust that others will be in position. This will help our defenders focus and help them to not spread themselves too thin. A big problem last year was that our secondary was trying to do too much. I think having Fletcher on the field will help to put the secondary at ease.

Our defensive line is probably the biggest concern heading into training camp. Everyone will be mainly looking at Carter, Golston, and Montgomery. Carter's play started to pick up at the end of last season, and we all want to know if that was a sign of good things to come, or just a fluke. Golston and Montgomery are young, and if they develop into solid players it could help propel us deep into the playoffs. Good things have been said about both of them, but we'll want to see if that is just hype.

Hopefully, our guys can stay healthy. Injuries trump everything else. If we can do that, I think we'll win the division.

Everyone is real close in the NFC East. But I would give the Cowboys a slight edge over everyone else.

Here is how I see it compared to the Skins.

QB. Very slight edge to Dallas. Only because Romo got a playoff start and has been around for 4 years.
RB. Skins
TE Even
OL Skins
WR Dallas
DL Dallas
LB Dallas
2ndary Even
Teams Even
Coaching. Even

Ok. Dudette. I was saying that: In my opinion I would give the tight end spot to the Redskins in the NFC East. And I would have given the quarterback position to the Eagles in the NFC East because Romo is not on McNabb's level.

You Understand????

I think you have to give the skins the edge on coaching

I am going off last year. Just cause we have 50 coaches doesn't mean they did a good job. GW had a bad year and Al and Joe did not mesh well until the end. I think Wade P. is as good a d-coordinators as anybody. Now I'm not sure about Jason Garrett running the offense so we shall see.

Not only did he botch the hold and lose the game for his whole team and his incontinent coach, but his legs are showing above his socks so he should probably expect a fine from the league any day now.
