The Reality of the NFC East

As an outsider looking in, Giant fans should have some concerns about winning the NFC East. Here are the following reasons:

1. The Giants have by far the toughest schedule of all the 32 teams;

2. Face it the Eagles are a very very scary team. Yes last year with all of their Star Free Agent acquisitions they were called the dream team and predicted to take the NFC East with ease but what many analysts failed to recognize was a group full of new players needed time to play together so they know the weakness and strengths of their new teammates and the Eagles system. After mid season the Eagles started to come together as a team and they were the most feared opponet in the NFL. At one point there was a chance that the Eagles could have won out in the NFC East;

3. Jerry Jones is sick of losing and has made that clear more than ever this season. He made good acquisitions in the draft and free agency to upgrade the weakest part of the team, their secondary. Now it is time for Tony Romo to close and he knows that all to well.

4. Finally the Washington Redskins. Hey they beat the Giants twice last year. Now they have a QB that everyone has a opinion on: RG3. Is he better than Andrew Luck? Can he be the franchise QB for the Redskins? These are all questions yet to be answered until the games are played. Also unlike Luck, RG3 is coming to a team with a solid Defense, a good O-Line and satisfactory Wide Receivers and Running game.

So the World Champions will have a rough time of it again this year and let us all hope that a playoff berth is in the cards.
