The NFC East is stacked. Each of the teams have promise. There isn't a clearly bad team in the bunch.

Here's what I think:

Any one of the four NFC East teams would win the NFC North if they were in that division.

Any one of the four NFC East teams would finish no worse than second in the NFC West.

The NFC South is tougher than the North and West, but I think there is a good chance that any one of the four NFC East teams would finish no worse than second in the NFC South.

What do you think?

I think you may be right.

Given that the NFC East plays the NFC South this season, we'll know more before too long.

I would say the winner in the NFC east would be the winner in any other Divsion, and if any NFC east team was to be in the NFC west or north, they would have most likley a 6-0, or a 5-1 record against the Divsion

I know that the top three teams in the NFC South are as good as anyone in the East.

Carolina could win the East.
Atlanta would finish 4th in the East
TB would finish no better than 3rd.
NO would be last.

1. Panthers
2. Cowboys
3. Buccaneers
4. Falcons
5. Giants
6. Eagles
7. Commanders
8. Saints

Yeah, I see where you're coming from and agree 100%.

2. Commanders
3. Bucs
4. Giants
5. Cowboys
6. Falcons
7. Eagles
8. Saints

On paper, the NFC East is the best division in football.

On the field, we'll see:).

Yeah, but that's the point. It was last year. Luck will not grace Washington two years straight. :rolleyes:

CLEARLY the E-girls are the worst team in the bunch.

Borrowed from David Letterman

TOP 10 REASONS WHY THE EAGLES ARE the worst team in the NFC EAST.

10. They are the Eagles.
9. Andy Reid is the coach.
8. Jeff "High Character" Lurie is the owner.
7. The Eagles Fans
6. No running game
5. Donovan McNabb is QB
4. No more TO
3. Have a movie coming out about a former Eagle player
2. Chunky Soup commercials are executed better than the offense
1. The Dallas Cowboys ARE BACK!!!

I disagree. I think there are only two teams in that division that are NFC East caliber. Carolina is probably the most loaded of the bunch...and the Bucs fight like hell and with their defense will be in most every game they play.

I think Atlanta has talent close to Tampa Bay's but not the heart of the other two teams. Who knows, Vick may surprise but right now I don't consider them a threat.

New Orleans could be a sleeper with Drew Brees and Reggie Bush on board, but they have alot to improve in order to make a playoff run.

Luck? Our 11 victories (including playoffs) came against 7 teams with above .500 records when we faced them and we took down 5 of the 6 playoff teams (including the conference champion) at one point during the season/postseason. I'd say that's a bit more then luck.

Washington managed to beat several teams which played some of their worst games of the season at just the right time. So, I'l have to admit that some good fortune (not luck) fell the Commanders' way. :rolleyes:

You know, if you keep beating your head in like that, you'll just end up scalping yourself. :(
