Ah the NFC, keep your logic at the door, it won't help you in predictng NFC. I don't know whats going to happen. Nobody does. Honestly if Tennessee switched to the NFC and won the conference I wouldn't be surprised. Maybe not as surprised as Lyndsey Lohan being sober or Kevin Costner making a decent movie but still pretty surprised. That said here's my stab in the dark at hitting the bullseye (or what Publius calls Friday night) of who won't make the playoffs who made it last year.
6. New York Giants- Ah MJ's whipping boy. Tiki Barber out, Brandon Jacobs in. Michael Strahan out, question mark in. Last year Eli spent the offseason working on his forehand for squash for the offseason, this year he focused on his backhand. If the Giants make the playoffs MJ will crap a squirrel.
5. Dallas Cowboys - There are a lot of questions of Dallas. Can Wade Phillips take over for the Tuna? Is Tony Romo the QB that rattled off amazing stats, wins and banged Jessica Simpson or is Tony Romo the QB that threw wounded ducks, let a game slip through his fingers and had to settle for banging Bea Arthur. Other factors to consider will they have any healthy receivers (Glenn and TO are hurt currently)
4. Seattle Seahawks - Seahawks are starting to face some competition. San Fran seems to improved, Rams are coming on and Arizona is now led by the Whiz. Alexander is a year older and who knows if Hasselbeck will over be healthy. Mike Holmgren, you might need a lot more mentos for the season.
3. Philadelphia Eagles - The Eagles has just about every problem/every injury that could happen to team that wasn't from Cleveland last year. Heck even Andy Reid I think had irritable bowel syndrome. However one thing was ok for them: Brian Westbrook. The Eagles go as far as Westbrook's legs can carry him. He gets hurt and that season goes down the toilet faster than a night after Taco Bell.
2. New Orleans Saints- Yeah yeah they're everyone's darling to make the Super Bowls. Yes they have an amazing offense. But that defense. And has anyone forgotten where they where before last year? I dunno. They seem to be prized but something is nagging me. After all Peter King picked them and we all know he makes about as many sound decisions as Pacman Jones...
1. Chicago Bears - The Dragon will be unleashed this year. Sexy Rexy and the Bears defense will be back in the playoffs. Why? Well who else is going to win the NFC North? The opium addict from the land of Cheese? A team that has Matt Millen as a GM? Tavaris Jackson? Is Minnesota serious?
