lol....I'm rooting for Griffin and hope he has a comeback year. But I just don't get all excited cause we hear he's running around fast. He's not a RB and we need him to run less. What I like to hear is that he went out to see Terry Shea. Now that means something cause that tells me Griffin knows his fundamentals got sloppy last year and he's trying to improve in that area. Now that gets me excited!

The fact is knee is 100% should also make you happy. That's what led to his sloppy mechanics to start with.

Yeah I'm sure that was part of it. Not having any pre season work probably didn't help either.

It's the whole package for me.

I think we are going to win the division this year personally. III with a big fu to the league.

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.
