2006 NFC Predictions

[Texanskin]

I was talking to a Dallas Cowgirl fan the other day arguing who is a better coach Gibbs or Parcells. His argument for Parcells was weak and I ended up guaranteeing him the the 'Skins will finish no lower than #2 in the NFC East. I really believe this now that:

Internal Reasons
1.We have Saunders designing/calling the plays. Which should put us in the top 5 in offense. (Portis, Cooley, Moss, Patten) yes I said Patten

2. G. Williams is back and has learned alot(how to influence players) from Gibbs. *** He is our future coach so the system will stay the same.

3. All of our core players are signed for awhile(and they believe)

External Reasons

1. NY Giants only won the NFC East title because of an extra home game.(Eli Manning has been exposed. Stop Tiki= Stop Giants)

2. The Eagles will be better but never like they were a few years past.
(They need a #1, #2, #3 receiver) The defense sucked with all of its starters.

3. Cowboys just suck. (even if they get TO, look who is throwing the ball)


My Concerns of not being #1 in East

1. Jason Campbell- We dont now how this is going to pan out. (Can he handle the blitz, will he gel with the receivers, is he NFL ready)

2. We need another #2 receiver in the offseason. Patten is a #2. But we need another just for good measure.


Am I wrong for making such a prediction so early or is it just me that feels we are looking at a Super Bowl in the next 2 years?

***Doesnt it feel good to see people try and JUMP on the 'Skins bandwagon since Gibbs is back.lol.lol.lol. (aka: Peter King)
