88Comrade2000 Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Getting close to that time of year when the Football Annuals come out with their usual predictions. USA Today has an post-draft start, with their "NFL Forcast" Supplement. They predict a Pats(14-2) win over Vikings(13-3) in the Superbowl.: 30-16; as our former QB throws 3 interceptions. The Redskins finish 4-12and have a Top 5 draft pick. I expect the usual annuals to start coming out after Memorial Day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riggo-toni Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 I think Cousins' meltdown will be a game earlier in the NFCC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Vikings regress some...not necessarily because they aren't better, but just because duplicating a year like 2017 is very tricky. I think Cousins plays plenty of good games along with some clunkers and they "limp" to 10-6 and maybe win a road playoff game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjfootballer Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Let me guess: All of them pick Washington to finish 4th in the division, because, well, Cousins left and they’ll fall apart and they always suck, so... Cowboys picked first because, by god, it has to happen sometime- and they’re our “favoritist” team, like ever. Eagles finish a close second because we can’t dump on the team that won last years SB. Giants finish third. Barkley is God and OBJ will be back better than ever and Eli, blah, blah, blah, and that defense, blah, blah, blah. There. I saved you guys $9.99 (plus tax). No need to buy them.

Califan007 The Constipated Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 ^^ So lazy... I guarantee you the Eagles won't win the division. Neither will the Giants. Hangover from winning the SB, will Wentz start, how will his injury affect his play, is Foles finally the real deal or did he have a good run and that's it, etc, etc. Eli's past his prime and should have been put out to pasture last season (which the old coach tried to do, I think, and got fired for it). Hard to imagine the Cowboys losing so many pass catchers and it having no effect on them. Their top receivers and TEs from last year: Dez Bryant - GONE Jason Witten - GONE Terrance Williams - (might be) GONE Cole Beasley - 36 receptions Brice Butler - GONE Ryan Switzer - GONE James Hanna - GONE Noah Brown - 4 receptions Geoff Swaim - 2 receptions They gotta hope Hurns and a few rookie pass catchers end up surprising, or else it's gonna be defenses loading up the box without fear of anyone doing any real damage through the air. And Dak isn't the type of QB who elevates his receivers. The Redskins are a mystery right now...hard to say exactly what they'll end up doing. Eagles will compete, Cowboys will disappoint, Giants will improve slightly but still lose, Redskins....hell, who knows lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hail2skins Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Geez Cali...….I know its frustrating to see the preseason predicts mainly rely on the chalk from the previous season, but you aren't exactly going out on a limb to make a NFC East pick. What, are the Cardinals going to rejoin and steal our division? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c slag Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Seems like I heard this story before -Lost too many good players -Won't compete within the division it's too stacked -might get lucky and squeak into the last wildcard, not probable though -can't beat the team from Pennsylvania in the playoffs and said team is a shoe in to win division -why follow the team at this point what positive outcome could possibly come from predictions like these?

They of course will pick Philadelphia and already are favorites My own opinion is it may come down to whomever wins both games between the Redskins and Giants I honestly think that Dallas and Philadelphia may take a step back this season Just my opinion though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doncherry Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 I think that the Eagles will win at least 12 games. Everyone else in the division is somewhere between mediocre and awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hail2skins Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 In this league of parity, the Eagles winning 12+ again might be a tough ask. Only the Patriots do that consistently, although the Seahawks won 12+ back to back in their consecutive SB appearances, and the Broncos won 12+ four straight seasons with Manning. People might be correct that the Eagles might "drop off," but that could mean winning "only" 11 games instead of 13, which should still place them in solid position to win the division. But anything can happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But anything can happen. I think that the Eagles sweep their divisional games this year. Their toughest non divisional games are against the Saints, Jags, Vikes and Rams. I see them winning 2 or 3 of those 4. I hate to say it, but their defense is for real. I also think that their offensive approach is ahead of anybody in their division.
