Well we're already 2-0 in the division

IMO, this statistic is VERY misleading. Despite the yardage or points we may have given up, the talent and coaching of this defense do not lead me to believe we are one of the worst defenses in the league. I would rate our defense in the top 15 at least, and I think as the season continues, the skins will show just how good the defense is.

I don't think people are trying to say we are going to win the east, they're just saying that, given the 4 teams' performances during the first quarter of the season, the East is wide open, and that it wouldn't be completely shocking if the skins did come out on top.

Hey why not? The division is definitely wide open this year and we've already got a leg up on two of the teams.

We need to string some wins together...This win one,lose one isn't going to cut it.

I want to see a 4 or 5 game run...Plus it would be huge to get wins over G.B.,Colts,Bears & Lions before the bye week. Go 6-2 with a 2-0 Division record and a 5-1 Conference record.

Then sweep philly on that Monday night game following the bye,going 7-2 and 3-0 in the division and 6-1 in the Conference.

If we can do this,we would be sitting pretty with only 7 games remaining and already 3 wins in the division.

NFC Weak is by far the worst conference. I guess everyone is riding NFC South and North carriage but we all know the East is where 48% of all NFC Championships reside.

There really isn't a dominant division in the NFC this season. The Vikes are 1-3, and you have a bunch of 2-2 teams in the other divisions. The south has the Saints and the Hawks, but both can be had. The north has the Pack and Vikes, but they don't looks so hot and are banged up. IF Moss can really help Favre light it up I will give them the NFC title nod, but they have weapons without Moss coming to town so go figure. The entire NFC West sucks, but what is new. The East is up for grabs, with a bunch of talented teams that don't seem to be able to play consistent ball.

Yo ACE my man, we already lost a conference game remember???
@STL.

Come on man don't get to ahead that u forgot we lost to the rams lol

[LavaRnChad]

If we win the division, it will be NFC Yesss!

I really think 10-6 wins the East for sure. Dallas is the only team that could challenge us for the division title. Giants, eh. Philly is good, but hey, didn't we just beat them? I guess you would never by some of the comments here. I can gurarantee you Mike Vick won't be shooting down the middle the next time he plays the Skins. Oh wait, we beat Dallas too, but then there was that pesky holding penalty at the end, so scratch that one too.

If we beat the Pack this week all all the pundits will have egg on their faces.

We don't match up well against the Giants. That defense almost always owns us.

Their offense also owned us as well.
