We don't play the Steelers. AFC West this year.

Eagles - You may be surprised. I may be too! Also, if they are playoff bound, they may "give" us one by resting their starters in the last game of the regular season.

Dallas - I'll believe when I see it... but if we lose, it will be because we beat ourselves, not because Dallas is a better team.

Why don't you start the "Pessimistic Thread" if you think that, we're all trying to be optimists here. :)

We were close to beating the Iggles last year. Only an idiot would so boldly declare that we definitely will not beat them this year. It were not for Ramsey's late INT, we win that game.

So how in the world can you say so boldly that we will not beat them this year? You are the most negative tool in this bag, buddy.

And for Dallas? They squeaked past us in both games last year...just watch.
SPIT HAPPENS!!

I am anxious to see what happens with the quarterback situation, whether or not it is going to be Ramsey-Brunell-Campbell as expected. I am also interested in seeing whether or not Clinton Portis has remembered how to properly carry a football in order to not fumble all over the place.

I wish folks like Sean Taylor and Santana Moss weren't already causing problems with the team, having been there for a short period of time (extremely short in the case of Moss). But they are both good players, and I don't have any doubt that whatever is going on there will be taken care of.

I also want to see what they plan on doing regarding the front 7. I'm really not sure about what they are going to do at MLB, and I'm not sure about Arrington's health. More than anything though, I'm not sure what they plan to do at defensive end. So, it remains to be seen.

The team could be really good this year or, alternately, pretty darn bad. Since this is the optimists' thread, I'll err on the side of really good.

the only thing i want out of this team is GOOD HEALTH. FOR EVERYONE! with that little bit of luck, there's no reason the washington redskins can't be in every single game they play. My 2 cents

If I didn't know better, I would think he was saying that we would beat Dallas, Pittsburgh, and Philly. He does say get it out of your head that we won't. Yeah, that's the ticket! :lol:
