    the only team in the last decade, i think, to lose the Super Bowl and still make the playoffs the next year is Seattle and that was only because the rest of the west was awful that year.

    I think there's a good chance New England has a bad hangover from last year's Super Bowl loss.

      The Giants won 10. I agree the NFC East will probably have both wild card teams.

      McNabb is entering the season healthy. How long will he remain healthy is an important factor.

        They won't win 16 games but they should win the division. I do think the Jets will win a wild card birth.

          GOING UP

          Arizona
          St. Louis
          Detroit
          Jacksonville
          Houston
          Buffalo

          GOING DOWN

          New England
          Indianapolis
          Pittsburgh
          NY Giants
          Green Bay
          Seattle
          I agree with most of your choices. Outside of St. Louis and Pittsburgh I think you are dead on.

            I can't see New England falling apart. 16-0 is not easy to do, they have all the weapons, it would take some major injuries for them not to make the playoffs.

              St. Louis will be four games better.

              Pittsburgh benefits from being in the same division as Cincy (football worst head coach) and Baltimore (rebuilding with no QB) and Cleveland (no defense) but I still think they're an 8-8 type team

                    I think Eli was lucky the Redskins DB's couldnt catch. He could have had 4-5 Int's that hit the hands of the defense.

                    He also made some good throws but Eli had a good run at the end of last year but lets not forget how horrible he was before that.


                    Giants will truggle to make the playoffs IMO.





                    Saints will put up points, can their D match.
                    NBA is a joke

                          How many interceptions should the Redskins have had? Seriously there was three balls thrown right at DB's
