Nfl Tickets - Nfc East Preview

NFL tickets for all NFC East teams can be found at StubHub.com.

Cowboys – Despite the fact that this division boasts the reigning Super Bowl champion, the Cowboys are still the favorite to win it. They have one of the most talented rosters in the league and are loaded with playmakers on both offense and defense. It will be interesting to see how Marion Barber adjusts to a more full-time role and if he wears down at all. Barber spent his college days splitting carries with Laurence Maroney and has split carries with Julius Jones his entire NFL career. On defense, the Cowboys took a chance and acquired troubled but talented cornerback Adam Jones from the Titans. Word is that the club (the ball club, hopefully not the strip club) will play Jones in the nickel slot and the return game. He could end up being an excellent addition to an already talented squad. The question remains whether this team can win in the playoffs.

Giants – The reigning champs’ bid to repeat will not be without its challenges. The team lost future hall-of-famer Michael Strahan to retirement and a few other important pieces. Wide receiver Plaxico Burress wants a new contract, but both sides appear confident that they’ll get a deal done. Burress is a player the Giants cannot go into the season without. Tight end Jeremy Shockey is not happy. He wants to be traded, but the Giants turned down a second-round pick from the Saints on draft day and it’s unlikely they’ll receive a better offer. When he plays though, he’s a top tight end in the league and helps sell NFL tickets. If Eli Manning can maintain the high level he played at down the stretch last season, they’ll be a force on offense.

Eagles – The Eagles’ major offseason acquisition was cornerback Asante Samuel. Samuel is one of the best corners in the league and has a nose for the ball. He should help bolster that defense as they can leave Samuel in one on one coverage against opposing number one receivers. Donovan McNabb needs to stay healthy. If he struggles, fans will be calling for second-year quarterback Kevin Kolb.

Redskins – The Skins have a ton of talent on offense and quarterback Jason Campbell should fare better with another year under his belt. The team was reeling from the death of safety Sean Taylor last season and it was a miracle they could focus at all. They may end up in the basement on the division, but they’ll be the best last place team if they do.
