I was thinking the same thing! they should be 2 or 3..

Why would the NY Giants be ahead of them?? The Eagles beat them 2 out of 3 times last season and the Giants did nothing to get better this offseason

The Giants get Osi back and signed Canty. Their defense will be better than last year.

Not sure how a franchise who has never won a championship could be that high.

Yea you would think a team that hasn't won a playoff game in more than 10 years couldn't be ranked 14th.. I think a team like that should probably be down with the browns and lions

Osi will be good, but Canty? you really think he will make their defense that much better??

You have to remember that they still don't have an answer at receiver and Eli began to look like his old self towards the end of the season

Yes Canty and Osi will make the defense better.

Hakeen Nicks is the replacement at WR.

Nicks is no plaxico... Giants will be good but I don't see them being any better than 9-7

1. Eagles
2. Giants
3. Cowboys(Tony Romo at QB and no true #1 receiver will make it a long year for the 'Boys 8-8)
4. Redskins

If the Cowboys pick up a #1 receiver or even a decent second receiver they will win the East pretty easily. McNabb doesn't have the fire anymore and Westbrook spends more time hurt than not these days. The window has closed on the Eagles and the Giants. It's just now opening for the Cowboys. Dallas will have a rushing attack that could set new records and that will take a lot of the pressure off Romo and the receivers. I do agree Romo will have to make better decisions than he has the last couple of years.

The window has closed for a team a game away from the super bowl last year that had arguably the best draft of any team and filled in its holes with young studs??

If you think Roy Williams has any chance of being a legitimate no. 1 receiver, you are kidding yourself...Tony Romo is the perfect example of a person who chokes in big games.. Something he'll never get over..
