Philadelphia EaglesPredicted Record: 12-4
Playoff Seed: 1
Key Player: Athletic Trainer, the Eagles are very good when they are healthy. So the key person for the Eagles is the Athletic Trainer. If he gets a lot of action than the Eagles are in trouble. However if McNabb and Kearse and Westbrook can stay on the field than they could finish where I have them. The #1 team in the NFC.
Fantasy Player to Eye: Reggie Brown, Brown is quickly emerging as a solid every week wideout. And to make his case even stronger this season, Stallworth is gone so he should be McNabb's #1 target. #1 productive wideouts are priceless in fantasy football and Brown could be a steal at where he's being selected.
Why the Record: Call me crazy but I think this is the year that the Eagles stay healthy again. They went 10-6 last season with Jeff Garcia and proclaim all you like about how well Garcia played, McNabb is light years ahead of Garcia in talent. Westbrook is also amongst the most dynamic players in the NFL and a healthy season from both of them will equal a lot of Ws.

New York Giants
Predicted Record: 9-7
Key Player: Eli Manning, Obviously this a season with a lot of pressure on Eli's shoulder. No longer does he have a douche bag, I mean top #5 running back in his backfield. However, he still has malcontents on the wings with Shockey and Plaxico.
Fantasy Player to Eye: Sinorice Moss, It's not a Tooma is coming off a torn ACL, and while he may be able to get a solid amount of PT this season Sinorice should emerge as the #2 wideout on the G-Men.
Why the Record: The Giants defense was miserable down the stretch last season. Their secondary was horrible, they blew a few games such as the Titans Kiwi non tackle tackle. Tiki was a big loss but I think their offense is going to still put up big points. I think Jacobs will be solid out of the backfield and most of all I think Eli Manning is going to have a big breakout season.

Dallas CowboysPredicted Record: 5-11
Key Player: Tony Homo & T.O. Chemistry, The key to the season is maintaining T.O. and Tony Homo's gay buddy buddy relationship and putting a muzzle on T.O. so he doesn't say any more stupid shit like I'd rather have Donovan McNabb as my QB. If T.O. doesn't blow up and Homo plays like he did at the tail end of last season the Cowboys could make the Superbowl like many are predicting.
Fantasy Player to Eye: Julius Jones, Personally I'm staying away from both Dallas Running Backs like the plague. However, eventually one has to think that Julius Jones, who remains the starter will get some goal line touches. Right, he'll take away some of Marion Barber's usefuleness?
Why the Record: I really can't explain why when going through each games Dallas was at the end of my picks. I guess I just think Wade Philips sucks at life, TO is due for a blowup and Tony Romo is overrated. I might have the lowest record for the Cowboys anywhere on the internet and I'm not even a Cowboy hater. Not whatsoever.

Washington Redskins
Predicted Record: 3-13
Key Player: Jason Campbell, This will be Jason's first full season in the Big Leagues and I feel as if he's going to need to prove himself if he wants it to be the first of many. In 7 games starting last year he averaged under 200 yards per game and just over 1 td per game. If the Redskins want to not suck this season he's going to need to bump those up a notch or two.
Fantasy Player to Eye: Santana Moss, It's an all Moss fantasy player to eye page. Moss had a terrific 2005 and a so so 2006. One thing is for certain he is inconsistent. One day he'll put up 138 and three tds and the next he'll catch two balls. If you drafted Moss this season (i.e. me) you are hoping for some consistency.
Why the Record: Count me as one who does not believe in Jason Campbell and most certainly does not believe in the Redskins strategy to trade every single draft pick they ever get for an overpriced free agent. It hasn't worked in the past and continues to not work season after season, yet they still have not learned their lesson.
