Quick NFC East Preview


Okay, so I'm no Michael Lombardi nor do I have a profound mathmatical the will literally blow your mind. I am not be one of the many experts at ESPN, but hey I'm bored and have some thoughts on our beloved/hated division.

Star-divide

 

EAGLES- So apparently the Eagles have become the hot team to rip on lately. Seems like everyone is picking agains them in the BEAST and no one expects them to win more than 10 games.

Quick history lesson: The Eagles won 10 games last year with a backup quarterback, a disaster at right cornerback, multiple starts including the playoffs by 7th round rooks at free safety and MIKE, no protection/blocking on the right side of the line, and a fading pass rush. The Eagles were the closest team to knocking off the Packers in the playoffs last season despite the fact their corners were horrendous outside of Asante Samuel(and Joselio Hanson).

The Eagles went out and got the best OL and DL coaches in the biz. They got guys to fit their systems as well. The Eagles got not one but two Pro Bowl corners to replace Patterson. They picked up a nice 4th receiver in Steve Smith. Vick is going into the season as the starter which will help a lot. They signed a very versatile Pro Bowl RB to back up McCoy in Ronnie Brown and a very promising rookie RB in Dion Lewis. My point is the Eagles have done a lot to improve their team. How does all this add to a lower or equal win total as last year? Chemistry? I don't buy that for a second. Don't blame it on the schedule. The Eagles play the NFC West along with Buffalo and Miami.

This is a good football team. No reason why they can't win at least 12 games. Injuries and more red zone woes could hold this team back, but I don't see how they don't win the East.

 

Eagles 12-4

Redskins- I want to completely write off this team, but something about them tells me they will overachieve. The defense will improve and the offense will at least have a solid runnin game. If they limit the turnovers this season I think they be in almost every single game.

I think the guys that are here want to play for Shanahan(good luck) and that will make a big difference as well.

An improved running game and a much better defense to go along with an conservative approach that will keep the score close will lead to a few more wins in 2010. No playoffs but won't be that far off.

Redskins 9-7

Cowboys- I like their skill players on offense. Felix Jones is going to breakout this season. Expect 10-15 runs and around 5 receptions a game. With less of a power running game it will force them to pass it more which is both a good thing and a bad thing. Tony Romo will throw a lot of TDs and a lot of INTs. The offensive line is a big question mark. 3 starters are gone, including at center. The line wasn't very good last season and it's hard to imagine how they get better with less talent and experience.

The defense is the same old story. They got Jay Ratliff. They got DeMarcus Ware. They got nothing else. Defensive coordinator is famous for two reasons: Rex Ryan and Buddy Ryan. I have never been impressed by Rob's defenses from the past at either Cleveland or Oakland. Maybe he and the 3 BULLIES will prove me wrong.

I wrote a post a month or two ago about how the Cowboys were really in rebuilding mode and with some of the recent cuts and limited activity in free agency it sounds like they are.

Cowboys 7-9

Giants- This isn't going to be a good year for the Giants. No one can survive this many injuries at key positions. Yeah the Packers had some but no one vital to their success. They still had Trammon Williams, Woodson, Rogers, all those wideouts and a good backup RB. The Giants have lost a ton.

Kevin Boss was lost in free agency and so was Steve Smith. They cut two of their starting OL from last season. They also lost Barry Coefield who was their best defensive player and replaced him with a rookie who is out for the season or at least most of it. Osi is recovering from surgery. Prince is out for most of the season and their most underrated player, Terrell Thomas is out for year.

They still have Eli, Nicks and Manningham but not much else. They will struggle early in the season but will improve as the season goes a long. I expect a bad start to be followed by a nice end to the season(usually the other way around for the Giants right).

 

Giants 5-11

Seubert was very good, but he’s not signed by anyone for a reason…he had major surgery on his leg after he hurt it week 17 last year. If they kept those two, the OL would be a concern.

Therefore, by vegetable-intelligence logic, the Giants are better than last year, when they did not make the playoffs, yet again.

Keep up the good work.

Who is writing off the Eagles? So far in most media outlets, I haven't seen anything

less than 11-5. If anything, the Giants are the ones being written off. Obviously we both have our opinions, so I’m not ripping you for yours….but I think that 5-11 is ridiculous. We were a 10-6 team last year.

That was with Steve Smith out for half the year (which didn’t do anything for W-L…they were about equal before and after he was gone). Shaun O’Hara didn’t play for most of the year, either.

That’s two peeps that were cut that didn’t really have much of an impact anyway. Seubert was nothing special, and Diehl at LG is an upgrade over him. Baas is an upgrade to the 4 different starters we had at C.

Cofield was not our best defensive player. Not by far. We are switching out him for Linval Joseph, not Marvin Austin. Canty was a better DT than Cofield was…Canty was the one that was opening things up for him. Linval by all accounts has looked just as good so far.

Jason Pierre-Paul will only get better on the line. We get Mathias Kiwanuka back from injury…which is huge. He’s a much bigger upgrade over Bulluck and doubles as quality DE depth.

Osi will be back by week 3. As will Prince (who is NOT out for most of the season). Losing Terrell Thomas hurts, but he was our second best corner. Corey Webster is our best corner. Aaron Ross has starting caliber talent, but he’s been injured his entire career….he’s healthy (and I hope he stays healthy), so our CBs aren’t terrible….we just don’t have much depth.

Boss was supremely overrated. 35 catches over the year, and had the worst case of the dropsies in the league.

Add to this we play Buffalo, Miami, and the NFC West, and 5-11 looks almost hilarious.

Let me re-write then

Terrell Thomas is a huge loss. I think he was one of the top 10 CB in the league the past couple seasons. You can’t have a weak secondary in the NFC. So many good passing teams. I’m not biased. I have always had respect for the Giants organization. I hate the Cowboys but respect the Giants.

We will see what happen

Thomas is a big loss

but if he was top 10 and not our best corner, then what does that make Webster?

Let's be realistic and make it 7-9 or 6-10

D. Baas cannot replace Boss, Smith,Seubert, O’Hara, Thomas, Goff, Sean Andrews, and the rest of your heroes who decide to jump the sinking ship.
You can be furious at them all you want, but they are alive and you are not.

by waterfield on Sep 10, 2011 1:40 PM EDT up reply actions  

well ok

Baas can replace O’Hara, and even Seubert. Seubert is replaced by someone who was here already, and is moving back to his natural position, in Diehl. Diehl is then replaced by Beatty, who on his worse day is better at LT than Diehl on his best. Sean Andrews back needed replacing, so that was no loss. when i see SS12 play like SS12, then i’ll concede that as any loss. Boss is already hurt, as per his career, and his 40 catches are overrated. he’s no Shockey. Thomas and Goff is a blow, i’ll give you that.

half of the people you mentioned aren’t a big deal. i love when ppl bring up the O’Haras, the Seuberts, the Andrews, like they were in their prime, pro bowler shape of years past. we lost Keith Bullock to, should we cry in our milk about him as well?

3 of the all world players you mentioned are unemployed, so i guess they aren’t alive.

our nucleus is still in the fold

Tuck is still here
AB/Jacobs is still here
Eli is still here
Rolle is still here
C.Webb is still here
Canty is still here
NY Nicks is still here
Mario is still here
Snee is still here
Mackenzie is still here
Beatty is still here

seems to me the still heres outnumber the see ya laters.

Isn't tuck hurting now too?

I mean I still think the giants and cowboys are still gonna finish ahead of the skins in my opinion. I think we now share a similar defensive problem in the question marks at LB. Unlike us though, you guys are hurting bad at CB which sucks.
I wouldn’t count on beatty being a top tackle for you guys. Your right side, i believe(it is the right, isn’t it?) is one of the more underrated right guard/tackle combos in the nfl.
Eli, I’m not sold on him being a great QB, he needs to get his mind right more often than not.
Rolle is solid but Webster, I think he’s a serviceable #2 corner but I don’t think he can handle the #1 WR’s in the league on a consistent basis.(I could be wrong, havent watched film or looked at stats in a while, been pretty busy)
Canty is decent as well, but to depend on Linval Joseph to be an immediate contributor is a little much. If tuck is healthy and JPP plays like he did in preseason, like usual your DE’s will be fine. Btw, what are your thoughts on Osi crying about his contract and shit? I hope JPP has a great year and they ship Osi with a nice slap in the face.
And yeah, Manningham and Nicks are solid. TE is a question mark still as well as FB.

by WarGeist on Sep 10, 2011 7:49 PM EDT up reply actions  

Tuck is dinged up

but he’s still in the fold. prolly will play tomorrow, if not, most likely next week and def. for you guys.

beatty i think is gonna prove himself to be worthy of mention as one of the better LTs in the game. remember, he was a first day draft pick, so he’s no slouch. he picked up some weight, so i believe he’ll be able to handle the bull rushing ends and backers better, and he’s always been pretty fast for a tackle. first test is a pretty good one in Orakpo, and he handled him last season when he started(altho he got called for 2 holds, got away with another) so we’ll see. you’re right about our right side, Snee is Snee, and Mackenzie was one of the top RT in the league last season.

Eli isn’t great, he’s not top 5, but he is top ten. to me that puts him in the above average/good category. and really that’s all we need. last season’s TO rate was an aberration, the rest of his career says so. he’s about a 15-19 INT guy; not great, but not bad. with our D and offensive weapons, i’ll take that anyday.

Rolle is good, and if KP can round into the shape he was showing his rookie and sophomore seasons, i’ll go on record and say we have the best safety tandem in the league. I don’t think you’re giving C-Webb his due credit, he doesn’t have the flashy stats(high INT rates, so forth) but if you look at the metric stats, i.e. PFF, he is in alot of top categories for CB. as shown by those numbers, he’s a top 20 corner.

Canty is solid, and i think Linval will be the future, but i didn’t list him as a cornerstone for the reason you said. but the future is hopefully bright with him and Marvin Austin(get healthy)

this is no doubt Osi’s last season as a Giant. for his and the teams sake, i hope he has a good season, so we can at least get a third for him.

However, if Beatty on his worst day is better than Diehl on his best, why was Diehl playing ahead of him?

because TC is stubborn

Beatty was nicked up alot last year, and still learning technique as well. all have improved this preseason. the only time i can remember seeing him get beat was against Peppers in game 2. having good ends like Tuck, Osi, and now JPP to practice against every week has had to improve his game. if beatty doesn’t have a helluva season, i’d be surprised.

I think you have the Cowboys and Giants mixed up. Also I would take a win from the Redskins.

Nah. Let’s compare the two teams…

QB: Advantage Eli
RB: Not a Felix fan, advantage Giants
WR: The Girls win this one
OL: Neither is good, but I’ll take NYG

DL: Giants… by a country-western mile
LB: Cowboys
DB: Even with all the injuries the Giants are clearly better

Take a close look at that Cowboys roster — they’re not a good team. They’ll go as far as Romo and that WR corps can carry them, provided the O-line doesn’t get Romo killed.

I hate it but,

QB: I’ll take Homo over Wrong Manning
RB: Gnats but…. Jones isn’t a turnover machine
WR: Girls
OL: Giants but I think the girls could surprise me here

DL: Tough to compare a 3-4 line vs a 4-3 line so I’ll give this a split
LB: See above but girls are obviously superior here.
DB: I wouldn’t touch either of these groups

I see the Girls putting up points but, not being able to stop anyone from throwing the ball.

Giants go 10-6

And flirt with the playoffs until the final week.

Oh boy, is this great!

Giants have no corners. In the NFC East you have…
Cowboys: Austin & Bryant
Eagles: Jackson & Maclin
Redskins: Moss & _______ with sexy rexy tossing the ball I guess it don’t matter too much

I’d take Webster and Ross over Newman and Jenkins any day…

ahhh, you’ve got a point they both suck but, Jenkins is above average and Newman can at the very least be serviceable when healthy.

that could be said about Webster and Ross.

And Jenkins was ass last year.
