It's the same old problem for the Eagles. McNabb has to play healthy, something that he has not been able to do for a while now. Even if healthy, he has lost a lot of his ability to scramble. The defense is going to have to win games for this team. The Eagles can also ill afford to lose 6 games straight up as favorites as they did last year.

Two words, DeSean Jackson...nuff said. He was a nice addition to the special teams squad, and he's a huge threat at Wr able to break open a big play every snap. If Mcnabb stays healthy, the Eagles easily contend for this division.
Mcnabb Healthy - 10 or 11 wins
Mcnabb injured consistantly - 8 wins

Thats the truth.

Are you kidding me? If Mcnabb stays healthy the Eagles can compete for the NFC East. That has to be the funniest thing I have ever read in my life. The Eagles will be fighting with the Redskins to stay out of the cellar. Cowboys are already pegged to represent the NFC in the Superbowl by most so called experts and the Giants are the defending champions! I hate stupid fans.

Big Daddy I don't know if you are an Eagles fan or not? I doubt it by the post becasuse it made SENSE. If the Eagles make the playoffs it clearly will be as a wildcard. Mcnabb can not stay healthy, who is going to be the wr and I hear that Westbrook might hold out. Good luck.

The NFC East is probably the most unpredictable division next to the NFC West and will be decided by a game or two. It's a little premature to say they will be competing for bottom dweller. Last year the Giants were pegged for the cellar and look what happened. I wouldn't rule out any Jim Johnson defense.

Neither would I.

I was looking at the over/under line for wins this season:

Cowboys: 10 1/2
Giants: 9
Eagles: 8 1/2
Skins: 7 1/2
