1.) New York Giants: Predicted Record: 14-2 - Playoff Bound.
The Giants are the first team in a while that has been better than they were in the previous season in which they won the Superbowl. Led by the highly acclaimed, and Superbowl winning QB Eli Manning, and a ferocious front four, the Giants have become one of the most feared teams in the NFL. The possibilities are endless for such a young team.
2.) Philadelphia Eagles: Predicted Record: 10-6 - Playoff Bound.
The Philadelphia Eagles are my dark horse to represent the NFC in the Superbowl. When Westbrook is healthy, the Eagles offense is as good as any. Unfortunately, he has not been able to stay as healthy as the Eagles would like. Still, even without him, with a resurgent Donovon McNabb and a Offensive Rookie of the Year Candidate in Desean Jackson, the Eagles are a dangerous opponent.
3.) Washington Redskins: Predicted Record: 9-7
The Redskins have been this years roller coaster team. After an abysmal start, they appeared as if they were on a roll, potentially a large enough streak that they might end up first or second in the division. Then, the train came to a shrieking halt when they lost to the St. Louis Rams. No offense to the Rams, but any team that considers itself a legitimate contender cannot lose to a team such as the Rams.
4.) Dallas Cowboys: Predicted Record: 8-8
The Dallas Cowboys have been riddled by injuries. However, even if QB Tony Romo was suiting up on Sunday's, I am not sure that the Cowboys would be a contender. There are simply too many problems, including a secondary which got lit up by the Rams. In addition to their horrendous secondary play, and shotty QB play, the run defense has not been much better. However, despite their major flaws, the Cowboys still have enough talent to pull themselves to a .500 record.
