Hahaha. NFC East is a complete joke. Having said that, the Giants do match up better with the Packers than most and have in recent years. But as a whole the East is the worst in the NFC.

You should be a comedian. Two Super Bowls to one in recent years. Eli and RG3 compared to Aaron and "I'll never win a Super Bowl because I choke and start throwing interceptions" Cutler.

2 Super Bowls by the same team. Having 1 good team doesn't make a division good. Otherwise you could say the AFC East is the best division since the turn of the century. It's not.

Let me know when someone besides the Giants does anything in the Playoffs and maybe we can start talking then.

Let me know when someone other than Green Bay wins something!

The Bears were in the NFC Championship game in 2010 and the Super Bowl not long before then. Last time the Skins, Boys, or Eagles were in either of those places? It's been a while.

Since 2010 guess which division in the NFC hasn't sent 2 or more teams to the Playoffs in any single year? That's right, the East has sent just 1 team to the Playoffs in each of the last 3 (maybe more, didn't look). Every other division has sent at least 2 in at least 1 of those years. The NFC North has sent at least 2 in every one of those years.

The NFC East is a joke.

North and West are both good, South is average.

East sucks.

So flawed it's incredible. If every division played the exact same non-division schedule every year then you could use the first 2 categories.

The third category is legit. They went with 5 years which I have no problem with. But in the last 3 years that trend has basically reversed, with the East being the worst in the NFC.

And again the last 3 are all based on 1 team for the East. 1 team being good does not make a division good.

I'm looking for the Bears to win 11 games this year. Major upgrades on the offensive line, paired with an offensive guru like Trestman will translate into at least one more win than last year. The defense is aging, but will still be effective. Losing Urlacher will really hurt from a leadership standpoint, but he was a shell of himself last year. The new guy filling in for him, DJ Williams very well may be a better player at this point in his career than a 36 year old Urlacher. The Cutler to Marshall tandem will be lethal, and they finally got a tight end who can actually catch the ball. Forte will be solid again, and Alshon Jeffery should be able to compliment Marshall nicely in the passing game. Go Bears

Look to be let down then.

Don't hate, appreciate! NFC East is the toughest and they will prove it again this year.
