Washington at NY Giants

Dallas at Philadelphia

I know I'm not the only NFC East nut looking forward to these games. :boxing:

By the way, Wahington and Philly will win those games.

fatness, I like you, I really do. I think you need some help, I have a friend that can help you. Let's talk about your problem. :banned: Oh, NYG and Dallas will win. :D

Where are my glasses? Has anyone seen my glasses?

Thankfully, they aren't in the same time slot. WAS/NYG is at 1 and DAL/PHI is at 4. It should be a great 6+ hours of football.

I can only hope that Dallas shreds the Eagles. The whole T.O. circus could be distracting for both teamsNo real feeling about the other game. Personally I can't stand the Mannings or Shockey, so I hope Washington wins.

:headbang:
Of course, if the Skins lose, it will be a horrible 6+ hours of football and my week will be completely ruined.As a Skins fan, not sure whether to root for Dallas or Philly. With Philly's easy schedule to start the season, I'm thinking I need them to lose as many as possible up front. Dallas will get plenty late season losses after T.O. destroys the team by week 10. Yeah, I'm actually leaning towards Dallas here as the most beneficial to Washington.

I'm actually on the fence with the Was/NYG game. I've always thought Philly would be at the top of the East, but the Blue Star Colored glasses are on this week. Let me be the first to say: "Damn, I getting sick and tired of all the T.O. talk!"
 
cowboys win in philly.. the other game, who cares its a battle to avoid last.
Don't count the nfc east champs from last year out just yet
agreedThis is a huge game though for The Giants. With the bye week coming at a perfect time they have the chance to get some problems ironed out,especially on defense. If they come out strong and take it to the 'Skins,and I think theywill,they'll be in the race the rest of the year in spite of the tough schedule,if they fall flat again then I think you can bury them for this year. In the OTHER game,I'm a big time Cowboy hater BUT I think they whip up on the Eagles this week. :banned:
 
Still too early to predict who will win the Dallas/Philadelphia game. Need to see what the story is with Westbrook, Stallworth and Reggie Brown. Westbrook most importantly.

I think that New York should win the other game. Just based on the fact that they've had an extra week to prepare for the game.

 
Here we go. :)

Here's what Redskins LBs coach Dale Lindsey said when asked how much help Arrington could provide the Giants about the Redskins defense: "None, he didn't know anything when he was here; what makes you think he'll know something up there?"

Then Washington corner Shawn Springs further stoked the flames when asked a similar question. "I don't think LaVar knew all of the defense when he was here," Springs said.

Arrington, knowing that he'd be in the media spotlight this week, asked to do all his interviews on Thursday. Stay tuned.
 
Surprised how many people think the Cowboys will win. I guess that's cause they're coming off a bye?

IMO, Westy=success for the eagles. without him it could be a real grind with dallas coming out on top. not counting on that though.

I say the Skins win the other game.

Do the Titans count as a bye now? :DI have my blue-colored glasses on. I think Philly is too banged up right now to pull it off.I'm hoping the Giants implode and start the downhill Coughlin slide. I think they're more dangerous in the long run if they pull it together.

haha my bad. i was thinking about the giants coming off a bye.
 
WAS looks good after beating JAX last week. The NYG have looked dreadful, but the game is in NY. I think it's a game the NYG have to win and so they will. DAL will manhandle Philly.

With or without Westy this will be a tough game for the boyz. If you thought the it was hyped during the N.O vs ATL magnify that X 10 = Philly when Elderado come to town. This is going to be very physical and I've already started BBQing. :D

try living in philly, the guy hasnt played here since early last season and thats all we hear about each ####in week.
 
If Philly loses, they should stop getting this BS hype and move into the bottom tier of the rankings.

3-2, with 3 creampuff wins, and 2 losses against NFL-caliber opposition (if the Giants are that).

I've heard or read somewhere Giants fans saying that they haven't been good coming off of bye weeks. They're 0-2 under Coughlin and 0-5 dating back to 2001, with 2 of those 5 games on the road. I'm not sure what to make of that, but that's something I came across. I'd still give the Giants a slight edge in this game due to home field and desperation, but it likely gets decided by a FG or less.

Funny because it's true.Antonio Pierce is still spouting off about the 'Skins too, saying that the Giants are more of a family atmosphere and that he was tired of the Redskins constantly hiring and firing coaches . . . the irony being that he left after the first season of the one coach he played for who was sure to remain and provide stability. Enjoy your time in the Coughlin family, guy. :bye:

 
Ill go with the Skins and Eagles.

There was so much talk about the Jax front four and how they would collapse the pocket on Brunell. The 'Skins Oline is playing dominant football right now and I see them running up the middle all day on the Giants. This may be one of those games where the Skins hold the ball 40+ mins and gut out a win.

 
I don't think McNabb will be able to dink and dunk against this Dallas Defense w/wo Westbrook. While I realize McNabb is playing out of this world, he has yet to play a Defense as stout as Dallas which will make for a long day in my opinion. On the other hand Lito Sheppard, B Dawk, Hood and whoever else Philly throws in the secondary will have no chance if Trent Cole and the rest of the Dline can't get pressure and they won't. Dallas 28-17.

As far as the NYG/Wash game...I hope the Giants win just for the sake of giving the Skins 3 losses. Looking forward to Sunday and can't wait.

 
I think my Redskins will lose, they never seem to play too well in the Meadowlands. I'll take the Eagles since they are going to be fired up and trying to take TO's head off on every play.

 
It's funny because even all of the NFC East watchers are all over the board here in their predictions. This division is (still) so up in the air it's ridiculous . . . and fun!

:yawn: As for everyone saying the eagles haven't beaten anyone, the cowboys have beaten the Titans and the Skins without Portis. Thats not too impressive either.

All in all it will be a good game..

Exactly- every team has its question marks. That's why I was saying that this weekend will go a long way towards resolving those questions.

I believe Pierce was alluding to the way the organization treats it's people. the Marra 's as opposed to Snyder. He's correct there,former players have always talked about being a part of The Giant "family" long after their employment was done. How well they were treated and respected by The Marra family. Snyder is nowhere near the "class" The Marra's have.
 
I'm a Redskin fan, and I can tell you I'm a little nervous with the Giants. They are coming off a terrible outing against the Seahawks and a bye-week. They are going to be playing angry. That spells trouble to me. Here's to hoping I'm wrong. :banned:

I know what family he was referring too. I just think it's ironic that he's now on the team with multiple players criticizing the coach while talking about it being a "family", while the team he left has no such problems since Gibbs arrived (Gibbs, of course, being the coach he opted to leave). Don't get me wrong. I have nothing but respect for the way that the Giants are owned and run, and for the Mara family overall.

I like the Giants coming off the bye. I really think this might be a make or break game for them, even this early.

I like Philly if Lito and Westbrook play (early word is that they will). If not, Dallas will win.

Wellington Mara is still dead isn't he? Although those photos of his granddaughter in Vanity Fair may have him rolling over in his grave.He hasn't been resurrected so he can die again and give the G-men a lift like he did last year, right?
 
I like Dallas over Philly. Dallas has no injuries so far. Philly has a lot, especially in the secondary. A banged up secondary + TO/Glenn/Witten/healthy oline = problems for the home team.

The 2 wildcards are McNabb and turnovers. If McNabb plays out of his mind, he's good enough to win it alone. Also, if Dallas turns it over a lot, then Philly is good enough to capitalize and win it. But all things being equal, Dallas is the more talented and balanced team.

In the other game, I like Washington. They have started playing MUCH better. They were awful in the first few games both this year and last year. Then they got better. I expect the same thing again. The Gmen worry me. They have talent, but they could easily implode.

Don't talk like that about someone who has done more for the NFL than the Redskins orginization and team.
 
On the other hand Lito Sheppard, B Dawk, Hood and whoever else Philly throws in the secondary will have no chance if Trent Cole and the rest of the Dline can't get pressure and they won't. Dallas 28-17.
:confused: Eagles have a great D-line, even without Kearse, against an okay Dallas line. Cole is leading the league in sacks and the rotation is still in effect. Pressure won't be a problem but coverage might be with Hood out. Other than that, if Westy can play, I like the Eagles to win here. If not, it will be much more of a challenge for the Eagles.

Has Westy ever had a good game against Dallas? I think the key is McNabb, not Westy. McNabb is the glue that binds the team.
 
Philly Homer here, but I'm more then a little nervous about Dallas this week. I honestly believe a healthy Philly is better then a healthy Dallas, but Philly ain't healthy. Their top 3 WR's, all-pro RB, and both starting CB's are all listed on the injury report. Anyone trying to predict the outcome of that game without knowing the final status of those players is probably being unrealistic.

If Shephard/Hood play healthy, Westy plays and at least one of the Starting recievers plays, then Philly should win at home. Take any one of those players out and Dallas will likely steal the game without an MVP performance from McNabb.

Giants should win at home...they need it too badly, and are better then they showed in Seattle.

Oh definitely, the Eagles would have no chance without McNabb. But McNabb can only do so much. Having Westy in the backfield just opens up so many more options. I can see Philly winning without Donte but I can't really without Westbrook.
