Agreed- No reason think they won't be. This team was very close to being in the NFC championship game again. The Redskins were 5-11. That's a prett fat gap to close in one year. I'll believe it when I see it.

Not to take anything away from the Eagles, who did a great job winning the NFC's strongest division at clearly less than full strength, but anytime you have a team who had to play 3 consecutive road games in the division and won all three of them, the opposition blew it. We could have won but didn't, the Giants had it easier than us and choked, and the Cowboys had it easiest and they really choked. Does this make the Giants and Cowboys worse? Not really. They just didn't play their best football when it mattered most, and paid with wild cards instead of a division championship.
