Re: Week 8: Around the NFL
One thing I'm noticing is apart from our Skins the NFC East is shaping up to be a powerhouse again this year. Not sure why I heard people poo-pooing the Iggles going into this season. Their FO gave Dono some good talent to work w/ on offense and now they're scoring 40+. I was real suspect of Bill Sheridan taking over as DC for the Gmen and it looks like he's gonna have to make some changes to get that defense back to elite status. Cowpukes aren't elite but heads and tails above us so it's not like I can rip on em.
But the big story is Minnesota and New Orleans. I picked NO to play in the SB this year and as long as Brees stays healthy I basically think they're a lock (NFC championship will be either Minn v NO or Philly v NO). NO has the best DC in football, arguably the best HC and QB in football. Hopefully they beat the Pats or the Steelers for the trophy

Re: Week 8: Around the NFL
The G-Men suck. The Eagles went in on them hard. Interesting how they laid down for the Eagles. With a coach ligh Coughlin? The great conservative culture he has established in their locker room? A great GM? and great FO? How does your team just lay down. My Redskins don't lay down. They are confused. They are foul ups bloops and blunders they don't wear skirts.

They did just win the SB not too long ago and have been one of the best 5 teams in the NFL over the last decade. Let's not call them out for one game. The Eagles are pretty good. Lot's of weapons and a very good qb. The Giants have problems in the secondary when facing elite teams. They need to get that corrected. Maybe we can trade them CR for a pick? |

Re: Week 8: Around the NFL
Giants may be in a skid but it's hard to see them not getting it turned around. Still a lot of ball to go. Way too early to write anyone off or crown a champ.

Re: Week 8: Around the NFL
I guess I would like the Giants to win the NFC East at the end of it all. Well, I'd actually like the Redskins to do it, but the chance of rattling off four wins in a row to get back into it are, well, not worth looking at. But I think the division winner in the East probably won't hit 10 wins, and if they do, then probably just 10.

Re: Week 8: Around the NFL
Giants will be all right but seeing them get worked brings me pleasure.

Re: Week 8: Around the NFL
Dallas' offense might be better w/out TO. They've been rolling the last two weeks.

Re: Week 8: Around the NFL
Any offense can be more "Romo Friendly" in October and November lets see how things go in December.

Re: Week 8: Around the NFL
Gregg Williams D strikes again for another Pick-6. For those counting, the Saints have 5 INT returns for TDs and 14 picks overall. We don't even have 5 picks on the season, much less any TD's, although Hall came close for one.

Re: Week 8: Around the NFL
The dude is the best DC in the game...it's nothing short of amazing what he's done w/ that unit in less than a year.

Re: Week 8: Around the NFL
The Saints are an UNREAL football team in all phases this year. I expect them if they stay healthy to be in Miami this year competing for the Super Bowl.
