I don't think we win the division this year. Just too many variables...how good a coach is Gruden, how will Griffin III perform, will our supposed-to-be-aggressive pass rush make up for a poor secondary, will Kotwica improve the STs or be like Burns and take the STs even lower than the previous coordinator, how will the OL look, etc. That being said, here's my pre-draft, pre-training camp, pre-preseason division predictions.

1. Philadelphia. They won last year, and even though they haven't improved significantly so far, it's a weak division, so they have to be the favorites.

2. Washington. We've improved the most through FA, but there's two huge question marks: Gruden and Griffin. If they both flop, we'll once again finish last. If they perform well, we should be in it 'til the end.

3. New York. Manning will almost certainly be better( heck, 27 INTs? How do you even throw that many? ), Cruz and JPP should be back to beastin', and obviously Coughlin's a good HC. While I don't see them as better than Philly right now, they're close to us. Maybe could switch 2 and 3 around.

4. Dallas. They've still got Romo, Witten, Bryant, and Murray on offense, but lost their two best pass rushers and have a terrible coach. Once again, good O, no D.
