2015 NFL Preseason Predictions: Can Dallas Cowboys Win NFC East?
Seriously, the division comes down to whether or not the Dallas Cowboys actually need a running back to win games. The Philadelphia Eagles return the same mad scientist nonsense, the New York Giants return basically the same roster, and the Washington Redskins are completely dysfunctional.
1. Dallas Cowboys (11-5): The amazing Dallas Cowboys offensive line protects Tony Romo, both by facilitating the run and insulating the Cowboys from the terrible play calling of Jason Garrett. It also helps control the clock and keep the defense fresh. The question is whether they can win without a stud running back. For now, I say that they can.
2. Philadelphia Eagles (10-6): I don’t really understand the quarterback carousel in Philly, but as long as Tim Tebow has a roster spot I’m a Chip Kelly fan. I like that they picked up DeMarco Murray as all hope seemed lost, and they look like a strong contender again this year — but without a strong quarterback I have to question the Eagles again.
3. New York Giants (9-7): I love Tom Coughlin and I like the New York Giants’ receiving corps, but you have to question the offensive line. I don’t know that Eli Manning will survive the season, let alone produce, and an average defense will keep them in games but won’t dominate.
4. Washington Redskins (6-10): Just let RGIII go out and win games. Seriously, the drama in Washington confuses me to no end. Colt McCoy is not a starting quarterback in the NFL. I expect mediocre things from the Skins again.
