Just read this, I think this guy puts us in a very good spot.

The fact that he has Carolina at #7 kinda discredits this fool's opinion. Espcially considering they absolutely humiliated 2 of the teams ahead of them in the play offs..

Giants and Eagles are really overrated in his rankings. Other than that its a decent list.

im not sold on carolina, not sure what it is, didnt sahow me much last season at rb, peppers wasnt himself, newman totally shut down steve smith last season, i think steve's a bit one dimensional (although i believe newman may be the best cover-corner in the nfl barring champ). if they can get that kind of production out of steve again this year they should be playoff bound as they are the best team in their division

The skins also beat the pats before they strung 21 straight and won a SB along the way. I guess we were better than them too.

I think his ranks are pretty good besides the eagles, giants, and panthers.

Cant the top 3 in the NFCE get an automatic bid?? Its going to be a dogfight.

 

[DragonCowboy]

Uh, Giants in first?

No...

Keyshawn is going to really open up their offense. While he may not be a Musheen or whoever, he is going to have a good year with single coverage. I think Carolina will have a very good year.

I would definitely downgrade the Commanders because Brunell will not be able to grind out another season. He will breakdown at some point in the season and the Skins will be in big trouble. I would switch the Commanders and Panthers rankings.

He had single coverage here. Why would u put double coverage on a avg speed pos. type receiver who doesnt seperate himself from coverage...I loved Key as a Cowboy but he wasnt fast enough...

I could be wrong but it wouldnt be the first time.

The 4 NFC East teams in the top 5 spots? Mmmkay.

carolina, and the eagles are not overrated. how u get carolina is overrated? last i checked they made the playoffs and we did not. 2nd the eagles are gonna b back i dont know why everybody is makin it seem like they suck? mcnabb had 1 bad year mainly because of his sports hernia. some people are such homers man serious

 

[txlonghorn14]

i can't believe this guy put the giants at 1. i think that's a little overrated to say the least. i think seattle should be 1, and go from there.

With your offensive line troubles, I'd be more worried about Bledsoe not being able to finish the season.

With your offensive line troubles, I'd be more worried about Bledsoe not being able to finish the season.

Bledsoe has been among the most durable QB's to ever play the game. If he stayed healthy behind a much worse line last season then I'm sure he will be just fine in 2006 with a much better unit.

Brunell is going to be 36 in october and if he goes down so does your season, even if he stays healthy you might be in trouble.

Bledsoe has taken a beating throughout his career, and still has managed to start 95% of games in his career, Bledsoe is the last QB anyone should think about going down...

 

[burmafrd]

RIGGO's prime fear is showing. HE KNOWS Brunnell is going down sometime- HE KNOWS IT.

He's banking on Eli showing a break out year, which, although can happen, is a little farfetched. Let him show steady improvement first, before presuming he's just going to put it all together.

The Cowboys are overrated, the Rams beat them.

What are you talking about?! Carolina was in the final 4 after beating two very strong teams on the road in January!
