2) That McNabb will be healthy all year. I would love to know on what basis he formed that opinion; Donovan's recent past history would certainly seem to indicate that he will be lucky to play in more than 10 or 11 games this year.
In regards to predictions overall:
If I remember correctly, before last year the MSM was all over the Skins's collective nuts and talking about how great their off-season acquisitions were and how good they would be. I believe during that stupid ESPN rate the whole NFL by position group and overall team things, they had the 'Skins being the 3rd the best team in the NFL. Obviously they were wrong. These guys make predictions to feed our country's insatiable appetite for everything NFL.
Now going completely against what I just said, both Jaws, who watches more film than any analyst and Football Prospectus, which uses a ton of statical analysis, predicted a good year for the 'Skins. So I take that as a good sign.

here is an example of what I say on this board. people go against the skins, they are idiots, someone who says they will be good, and they are the know all be all in the NFL. did you see the NFC east last year? 3 teams made the playoffs. Now of the four in our division, which one did NOT make the playoffs?? right, the skins. what makes you think they would put any of those 3 behind the skins. why should they be?
