WTF do we ever get any respect?

When it comes down to it, I'd give the nod to the teams with the better coaching staffs.

I'd say:

Washington 10-6 (this is faith in the team to turn around this rough preseason)
Philadelphia 10-6 (back with a vengeance, McNabb, Westbrook, T Thomas all healthy on offense)
Dallas 9-7 (Sean Payton will be missed, and the offensive line isn't there yet)
New York 8-8 (schedule is tougher than last year, will lose to Seattle, Chicago, Jacksonville, Indy, Carolina, and go 3-3 against the NFC East)

Plus the Giants will not have the added advantage of an extra home game this year.

To be fair, they probably would have rolled the Saints even if the game were played in N.O.
