Sportsline.com NFC East overview

[jbcjr14]

While I don't agree with Judges' assessment, I do think we will struggle early on due to the nagging injuries and incosistency at the qb position. The defense is good, but one corner down and we are in deep shit. I still think this is a playoff team, but adversity will reign early on. Hopefully the team will be that, a team, and overcome the adversity of a slack ass offense and win three or four of those 7 pt ball games.

Be glad. Let everyone underestimate us. This is fine by me. I wouldn't be surprised if we get a few close wins in the first half of the year because other teams don't really get fired up against us. No doubt fans of Seatle, SD, Oakland, KC, etc have all penciled in wins against us and are thinking about division rivals and so on. Mark my words: we are going to "steal" a few games this year, until we get that "sleeper team" thing going.

So to all the hacks and haters out there: keep it coming! You are our fifth column, our "13th man" this year.

PS Wonder how big the chip on the shoulders of the skins is getting by now? These guys read the papers as well. They must be pissed.

Freddie Mitchell as a key loss....... that just made my day.........

Isn't this the same site that has Peter King .......... 'nuff said.

The Eagles have been in the playoffs and went to the Super Bowl, not because they are such a fantastic team........it's due to the lack of competition in the NFC East and the NFC in general, but I think times they are a changing........

Cryboys.......weak o line and brittle, immobile QB, and relying on youngsters on a defense that was bad last year.....one rookie on whom they are counting on that will be out a month.

Gints-an inexperienced QB......an aging RB and aging Strahan who Jansen manhandled..guess what......he's back!!!

I do agree with him on one point with the Redskins:
"Will go to the playoffs if ... if they ever figure out the passing game. Don't worry about the defense. Coordinator Gregg Williams has that covered. "

Maybe Arrington can go ahead and let Bledsoe know he should be out of the game.

And about the "Key Losses" this genius just looked at each player that left and considered them "Key Losses". As was mentioned above, talk about MAILING IT IN.

clark judge can't stop riding andy reid's dick enough to type a decent article. there is no way i could see the eagles missing the playoffs this year. no way, with such a great offseason, everyone's back, they have an awesome quarterback, no amount of bad play, injuries, turnovers, there simply isn't a way. I'm just gonna sit here and pretend that nothing bad happened between T.O. and Donovan. I'm also gonna pretend like Freddie Mitchell is a key loss, because as we all know, he backs up his mouth with his game.

Yo we really think alike Monk 81 I just spent 50 words on Peter King(AKA: Norm Peterson) yesterday.

[GoSkins!]

It's a great article. The guy obviously has a list of player changes for all the teams and a few copies of last football seasons sports illustrated. With a little cut and paste... "presto" instant insight!

We are all stupider for having read it.

they have a poll on nfl sportsline that says which nfc east team is most likely to overtake the eagles this season. The results are like this:
61.1% - dallas cowboys
20.9% - new york giants
17.9% - washington redskins

that just goes to show that nobody cares about the redskins this season.

Let's keep everyone thinking there is no reason to let on the donkey kick to the face we have in store for everyone.

I like the fact the Skins are flying low on the radar headed into this season.

Soon we'll see if all the negativity is justified or not.

Your right, Red Robert, we did make the playoffs... but people continue to hate on us anyway.

holy cap this article was so far off....eagles are so good at overcoming adversity, and the redskins are so dumb to let coles, smoot, and pierce go
