Hey I'm definitely down with this thread! I love football, pro and college (Fight On!) and am definitely looking forward to this year! Okay, here goes:
A. I have been a Dallas Cowboys fan all of my life. That is my #1 team. I have recently been following the Atlanta Falcons too but I think that is mainly because I am a big Michael Vick fan but the Cowboys are definitely my team!
B. Week 1 opponents are the Chargers in San Diego. Damn I wish I had tix! Should be an interesting game.
C. There are too many unknowns for me to get a feel for this team yet. Bledsoe should be pretty familiar with the system since he played for Parcells before. Julius Jones looks like he is gonna be pretty good but he has less than a year under his belt so it is too soon to know for him also. With the recent signing of Peerless Price, our WRs look pretty good. Keyshawn Johnson, Terry Glenn and Price, not too shabby. The O line ????? Once again too soon to know. They have the potential to be pretty good. Our D is very young but very talented. They could either develop into one of the best in the league or it will be a learning experience type of year to build on for the future. My realistic expectations (unlike myopic Raider fan, sorry gamma) is to at least finish .500 or better and maybe be in the hunt for a wildcard spot. The Eagles are clearly still the best team in the NFC East.
BTW, the Falcons vs. Eagles on MNF should be a really good game. I want to see how much Vick has developed and progressed with another full year under his belt. McNabb vs. Vick! Should be good!
