“The upset of the week will be the Eagles over Green Bay. Also, there is no way that Dallas will lose to a McNabb led Redskin team.”

I think you have it backward. There is no way a rookie named Colb? can beat Green Bay. I will be amazed if he is able to walk off the field at the end of the game. Philly’s defense (the thing that made them great) is gone. Philly still can’t run the ball at will and requires a dozen plus hitch passes to equate to what a basic running back can do in one half of a football game.

As for Dallas - they have no o-line. Which means they won’t be able to run. So you have the Tony Romo show and a field goal kicker. Look for Romo to do his immitation of a ragdoll. The Cowboys may be able to do the impossible and make Fat Albert look good.

I think you should look closer at the Eagle defense. The team went 11-5 last year and, this year, their defense has been improved. Bradley is back at middle-linebacker and they have improved both on the D-line and the corners. As for Kolb, if the O-line is healthy he will do just fine.

Washington has little in the wide-receiver area for McNabb to throw to and their offensive line is shakey. Dallas can put pressure on McNabb all day just like they did last year in Philly. Any way, This is a great time of year. Football is finally starting, the Phillies are only 1/2 game back now and hocky starts in another couple weeks. At last, something to take my mind off Obama and the Democrats...
