Gibbsfanatic 03-10-2004, 02:49 PM Ok, guys. I know it's way too early to start discussing the division, especially with the draft still coming up, but what do you think about the moves, or lack of moves made by the other teams in our division. For example, the Eagles sign Kearse, but they have holes in their secondary, and they still will have trouble with the run. The Giants made minor moves as usual. And I guess the big question I have concerns Dallas. They made no moves for a quarterback. Keyshawn was an o.k. pick-up. But they still have no qb. Will they make a move for Couch? Parcells seems awful quiet.
cpayne5 03-10-2004, 02:59 PM Parcells can coach anybody (Carter, Hambrick, nuff said), the Eagles will be carried once again by McNabb, and the Giants will fumble their season away as long as they keep handing off to Barber. Seriously though, it could become the best division in the league, quickly. Look at the coaches: Parcells, Reid, Coughlin, and Gibbs. Andy Reid, one of the better coaches in the league, is suddenly fighting for 3rd best in the East! Things could get interesting.

I see us at 8-8, but HOF Coach Gibbs was 8-8 in his first go-around, and we know what happened after that!

Only a 3 game difference from last year? This year should bring with it an easier schedule, which combined with a better coaching staff should produce more than 3 extra wins. But after this past year, I'll take it if they atleast show some improvement over the course of the season.
joethiesmanfan 03-10-2004, 03:11 PM Easier schedule NO. we play the same teams everybody else in our division plays except two games schedule only affects 2 games.
SkinsRock 03-10-2004, 03:17 PM Gibbs could have coached last season's team to at least 2-3 more wins. With the new veteran coaching staff and the improvements that have been made, I'd say 5-6 more wins than last year. The Eagles window is closing, and the Giants are a couple years away, so it'll be the Skins and Cowgirls battling it out...just like the old days!
Gmanc711 03-10-2004, 03:20 PM 8-8, I'll consider it a huge dissapointment if thats our final record. We will be right in the race till the end of the year, and I think we have a chance to win it. I think the Giants still have some time before they will get back into things, the Cowboys should be decent dispite their slow offseason, Philledaphia will still be strong as well.

2/16 games makes a difference.

With what ought to be a tough conference, 8-8 will be very strong. This shouldn't be like years past, where someone will go 5-1 in division to run away with it.
SittingBull 03-10-2004, 03:28 PM I think we have a way easier schedule then last year. Most of our tough ones are at home this year i.e Green Bay, Baltimore, Tampa Bay and Minnesota. We got Cincinatti at home which should be a stomp. We play Detroit (probably on Thanksgiving), Cleveland, Chicago and an unproven 49ers away. Dallas meanwhile has to play Green Bay, Minnesota and Baltimore all away lol. Philly seems to have a similar home schedule as the Skins except switch out Tampa for Carolina. St louis and pittsburgh seem to be their hardest away games other then the division games of course.
