If Arrington chafed under Joe Gibbs in Washington, how do you think his defensive free-lancing is going to work for Tom Coughlin in New York? Don't get too giddy just yet, Giants fans. LaVar doesn't respond well to authority, and Coughlin (and defensive coordinator Tim Lewis, for that matter) doesn't respond well to guys who don't respond well to authority. Tremendous upside for the Giants' defense, yes, but only if LaVar plays within the framework of the defense and doesn't give up significant chunks of yardage because he's playing in the wrong place, as he often did in D.C.
I think the conference is wide open going into 2006. I agree a lot with that assesment, especially in the NFC North. No team in the NFC North has a definite proven quarterback as of right now (Brett Farve just make a decision already) although I think both the Bears and Lions have potential at the posistion.
2006 is different shit i would say pats, colt, falcons but theres allot of changes i wouldnt be surprise if dolphins have more wins this yr than last yr but i know they not a superbowl contender yet well who knows the bengals kicked ass last season we just have to wait the giant have couple more yrs to become a superbowl contender
the seahawks are a lock. weak schedule plus great team equals home field advantage.
The Giants aren't going to make the super bowl with the Seahawks around. Arrington won't change that.
Still wondering what might have happened if Carson Palmer hadn't have gotten hurt. I think the Bengals are real. /Seahawks won't win the Superbowl. C'mon... //Giants are gonna be better.
Let's hope the Bengals are real. Should be interesting, the NFC north is really up for grabs, and this might just shift the balance of power in that division.
LostInDaJungle, unless I misread your comment, you seemed to have been implying that the signing of Arrington will have a huge impact on the North Division. That will not happen. While it may happen in the east division (obviously), it won't happen in the North since to them it is just a different East Division team with the really good linebacker. What impacts the North division will be the games played between the four teams, and who can step up and be the hero.
I'm a real G-MEN fan I even have season tix. In order to win a super bowl you need a great quarterback, a winner something ELi is not. You just look at his stats and say he good and getting better and going to be better than his brother. I watch and Its painful a lot of passes are poorly thrown and nearly picked but you don't see that all you see is the fact that his completion percentage went down two or three seal no big deal.
