I believe that the Giants are best positioned to stay together no matter what the won-lost record is. They already have their SB rings and Coughlin is a taskmaster who is in lockstep with the owners who don't meddle. There is no obvious successor to Manning so although the fans will get grumpy, they will go with their game plan.

The Redskins are also in good shape although some believe that Danny Boy will fire Zorn if season is disappointing. I do not believe this will happen since Danny has learned that another coach will requre 3 - 5 years more to get to the Big Show. Danny is not meddling and roster moves made to date seem to be good ones.

The problems that the Cowboys will encounter will be laid at the feet of Jerrah Jones since the perception is that he fired TO and not the coach. Phillips will not be able to save this train wreck so Jerrah will blame Romo, Phillips and the scoreboard. Anything can happen here but we KNOW who is in charge.

The Eagles, to my mind, seem to have most of the problems. They have lost several starters and the addition of Vick will only aggravate McBlabb as he knows there is a threat sitting on the bench or maybe even throwing passes. I have to believe Reid was NOT interested in Vick as he knows the disruptions a divided fan base and a locker room can cause from his TO experience. If Lurie was the instigator, fine but Reid is the franchise face and will take the heat. A train wreck waiting to happen.
