TMQ does his predictions in haiku:
NFC East
"Sopranos" ending,
but Jersey still has G-Men.
Jersey/A Giants.
Forecast finish: 11-5
Tom Cruise at QB,
team trains at Six Flags. Redskins
branded toothpaste next?
Forecast finish: 11-5
T.O. gone, focus
back where belongs: on cheer-babes.
The Philly Eagles.
Forecast finish: 10-6
Terrell, Parcells: the
Kramer vs. Kramer team.
Them Dallas Cowboys.
Forecast finish: 6-10

every team in the east may beat each other up and end up 9-7... 'Skins win the tie break with a 4-2 division record, followed by the Giants and Boys at 3-3, and Eagles at 2-4...

Philly has a stretch of: Redskins; @ Tennessee; @Indianapolis; Carolina; @Redskins; @ Giants; @ Dallas
Giants: Indianapolis; @ Philadelphia; @ Seattle; Washington; @ Atlanta; @ Dallas; Tampa Bay and that is the begining of the season
The games within the NFC East are going to be brutal this year.
Skins win the NFC East 10 - 6 or 11 - 5

When you compare our schedule to those of our division rivals we really lucked out.
The Giants could very well be 0-4 heading into their game at Atlanta and considering the amount of bickering late last year and in the offseason by some of their star players, it could fall completely apart at that point.
Phily's late season stretch is is mindboggingly brutal. 4 out of the last 6 on the road with 3 consecutive division away games? Ridiculous.
Dallas schedule isn't nearly as bad, but out of their first eleven games only the Houston and Tennessee games can be looked at as breathers.
I like our chances if we get a quick start out of the gates and the team has to be psyched that they get their bye at the midway point of the season.

The G-men look like they have one of the toughest opening schedules in the league. Sorry, they're not going 11-5.

I love how that TMQ column ended:
"Next Week: During the preseason, Tuesday Morning Quarterback uses bland "vanilla" items to confuse scouts from other sports columns. Next week the season starts for real, and I'll open up the playbook -- multiple-formation grammatical structures (you should see the sentence diagrams!) and adjectives that come at you from all directions."
