team with the best shot to beat the eagles for the nfc east?

obviously the eagles are the favorites to win the nfc east next season but that division is always close. who do you think has the best shot at beating them? i think the giants do. the cowboys i didnt see much improvement in. the redskins have way to many questions for me. while the giants improved their secondary their d-line should be halfway decent. the o-line was addressed eli should have more time to throw this year. they might actually have a decent running back this year. their receivers have questions. cruz is going to be there but you don't know about odell beckham jr in his rookie year or reuben randle. randle has to step up. I think they could win 9-10 games. but the eagles made improvements as well. they have two good backs with shady and sproles. foles is going to be fine i think. I'm not sure about their wide receivers with desean leaving. i think he's a punk anyway. but i don't know much about their receivers. i think maclin is the one who tore is acl he is coming back i believe. but the team that will be the worst threat to the eagles is the giants. they always go on a hot streak at some point. sometimes its early for example there were many years they started 6-2 and ended 9-7. then last year they had it later in the season. starting 0-6 and winning 7 out of the last 10 games. the giants could peak at the right time. those two teams play in week 17 and i think that will be for the division.

    I agree, the giants will be the main challengers. Their main problem last year was their d-line which has been addressed and now eli will have the time to pass the ball without turning it over. If RGIII plays like he did in college then the redskins could also challenge especially with desean jackson coming in to pose a real vertical threat, however I believe the giants are stronger.

    I don't know. There are too many questions for each the Cowboys and Redskins and I don't see the Giants having talent to get past 7-9. I think the Eagles basically have this but any of the teams could surprise them and become a challenge. If RGIII stays healthy he has a lot of weapons on offense. They also have a new coach which could be good or bad. The redskins could finish last or they could finish first it just depends. The Cowboys always finish mediocre and I didn't see them improve at all this off-season so I see them finishing 8-8 again. The Giants did improve but I don't think enough. Eli Manning is a back and forth QB. You get the amazing side of him and the turn over side of him. From what I saw last year he is too inconsistent to tell. Maybe anywhere from 7-9 wins. The Eagles improved from an already good season last year, But Foles must play like he did and they can't have injuries. If the offensive line can't stay healthy McCoy wont have that great of a season. If McCoy get injured you have to fully rely on Sproles and Nick Foles to get the job done. There's a little room for injuries at WR and TE only because there is so much depth. Defense they did improve slightly. They added some depth in the secondary and got a safety in Malcolm Jenkins. Most of the defense has a year or two of experience now so I see them getting better. But injuries is going to be what makes the Eagles this season. If they stay healthy I predict a 10-6 or 11-5 record but playing much better than last year. Without injuries coming into play I believe the Redskins have the best chance

    Redskins. The Giants stand no chance. And the Cowboys won't be the typical 8-8 Cowboys this season they will finish worse than 6-10.

    Giants I guess. It really doesn't matter. None of them are getting past the wildcard round.
