NFC East:
Cognizant that 10-11 wins carries the 'NFC Beast', preseason prognostications ranged. Consensus varied from the Redskins repeating, Giants rebounding, to 'America's Team' reemerging. What nobody believed was the mystery of Chip Kelly's arrival in Philadelphia with holdover Michael Vick would be a resounding success. The Eagles Monday Night Football performance, in particular the first half, has put the league on notice. 

NFL Preview: Power Rankings By Division

2013-14 NFL Preview Power Rankings

Now that the NFL season is upon us, it is now time for our NFL Power Rankings to return. We take a look at each division for our first list. The NFL has grown into a league of parity, which for fans is the best case scenario. In no other league can a bad team turn into a championship contender over one offseason. See the Washington Redskins last season for evidence.

For this list, we took a close look at the preseason for what it is worth. We took into account injuries, new coaches, new coordinators, and returning power teams.

Lets get to the 2013-14 NFL Preseason Power Rankings:

NFL: 2014 NFC East Offseason Question Marks- Players to Keep an Eye On

by Chad Jones



Over the past 2 NFL Seasons, the salary cap has been relatively flat at 123 Million. Teams are anxiously awaiting the kick-in of new television money in 2015, which will allow the cap to rise significantly over the remainder of the current CBA. Let's take a look at NFC East Cap concerns for 2014.

Dallas Cowboys Lose to the Minnesota Vikings; Drop to 1-4 and last in the NFC East

The Boys lose again! This time to the Brett Farve and the Minnesota Vikings. Its the same story as last week, penalties and turnovers hurt the Cowboys. Mike Jenkins was still getting called for pass interference and the offensive line was still getting penalized. We have all been giving Romo a pass because of the numbers he has put up this season. At 1 - 4 all bets are off! This pro-bowl quarterback again loses another must win game by turning over the ball. Only fitting for a player that made his introduction into the mainstream fumbling away a playoff win. This is Romo's second game in a row throwing a pick to end a late game drive. As the team was getting 4 penalties in a row you did not see Wade Phillips in anyone's face holding someone accountable. The team gets another "touchdown celebration" penalty; this time in the first quarter. After all that they, end with a desperation "miracle" play that only works in Disney movies. This is not a good team. The coach is not a good coach. The quarterback is not a good quaterback. This defense is not a good defense despite what the stats say. There are no good 1 - 4 teams.
