NYG: pretty solid, but they've been lucky with injuries
It seems to me that almost every team in the NFC Beast is struggling with offensive line woes.

True true, in fact Dallas says the same thing about how JJ won't draft line talent, but in their case I understand it more. They had many picks in the later rounds to pick out several OL to see what they could find, but didn't. I still think we have the second best situation, like you said the Giants have been lucky, but still they have a solid line and they probably would survive an injury, because their backups have had lots of practice.
Dallas is in way worse shape then us, they have no real youth, and Flozell between his false starts and getting worse health is not the force he once was. The rest of their line is average. They are counting on running alot this year, like us, and I think their line will not hold up. We all know its three games if TR hurts his pinky.
I would be ok with AH gunning for a pinky LOL
The Eagles. I've never seen a team get so many passes. If we had gotten Andrews or Peters again, DS would be ridiculed for overpaying underperforming athletes. What a joke, AH after 2 lights out seasons, and an expressed desire to prove he is the best gets criticized as a slacker, while J Peters has a poor year and gets called the steal of the off season, or a great move by the Eagles. If he has a better year than AH I will eat suishi! (some may not consider that a punishment, but for me it is.)
All in all, we are looking good.
by the way did anyone else see the Texans lost a starting CB to a fractured leg. I am not trying to invoke karma, but really lets compare around the league.
