    ? really love to hate the NFC East huh?

    I don't hate the NFC East. I hate the delusion around it. Y'all really are just another division (just like a lot of other ones...NFC South included), so there's no need to be on every Sunday and Monday night. Or to talk about the division like it's made up of top tier teams with awesome rivalries (like the AFC North). Cowboys/Redskins rivalries? 3 playoff wins in the past 15 years...no one gives a ? about that rivalry. "We always play each other close though"...it's a ? divisional game, tons of teams play each other close. NFC East is just another division.

    This upcoming season has so many storylines I can't wait for it to start...

    *Giants offseason moves
    *Norman coming to Nfc east
    *LA Rams
    *Cowboys romo injury comeback n suspension
    *The Jaguars (def gonna try them on madden 17)
    *Sanchez starting 4 the defending super bowl champs...

    alot going on..know I left a few out

    I hate this. I'm not mad at your for saying it, you're right. I just hate hearing things that makes the NFC East sound like the best thing ever in the NFL no matter how bad they are. Saying Norman is going to an average team in a bad division just doesn't sound as appealing though I guess.

    We are the best thing ever in the NFL ? u talkin bout

    The treatment of the NFC East is damn near the most annoying thing in the league. Why the Eagles have like 3 prime time games? They lost all their star power, their coach, and their games.

    Maybe cause we have the most die hard fans or maybe cause our division still has more Super Bowls than any other division in football.......with only 3 teams :joy:

    Nobody cares about stuff from over a quarter century ago when they're checking out the MNF schedule. This millennium the Skins and Cowboys have a total of 3 playoff wins.

    ? u the one crying about the ? and wondering why it happens every year and I'm trying to tell u why. Somebody cares, perhaps most of the east coast and one of the biggest states in the country?

    The intrigue of Norman in the nfc east has more to do w the receivers he will be facing and people wondering if he is truly a shut down corner or will be exposed

    If nobody gives a ? about the rivalry then why do we get primetime games bruh? Obviously somebody cares, juat cause nobody gives a ? about the NFC South and the teams in it in general don't come for the East bruh.

    The whole division hype is from its media market size.

    I don't have numbers in front of me to back this up, but I'm gonna take a wild guess and say NFC east games bring in high tv ratings. factor in the star power between the four teams (past and present), historic rivalries etc. and that's why they're always in primetime

    Nobody saying that's not true

    But if you're fan of Dallas and Wahington and that's the only thing you can brag about with your team instead of Ws in the past 20, ? comical.

    The bucs are one of 2 teams to go winless in a season in this quarter century lol

    This no math doin ? here. Let me break some already simple ? down for you. A century is 100 years. A quarter century is 25 years. The Bucs went winless in 1976....40 years ago.

    It was a joke but I got one better for you sense were being technical. It's 2016 right . You talking about wins in a quarter century right? Now how many super and playoff wins does the Cowboys have?smh..... you should have just let it go. .just jokes dog..just jokes

    Bad joke. You're taking abouy wins in a quarter century, not me. I'm just saying,if my team isn't playing, and I'm watching, i'd like to be watching good teams/games. I think the NFC East is on primetime (not Thursday) 12 outta 16 weeks. A division that people thought a losing record could win. The winning team didn't beat a squad with a winning record all year.


    I'm not hating on the division, but like I said, it's just another division. No team has more than 2 winning seasons in the past 5 years. Only 1 team had a wining record last year (and they weren't even good, really), so being force fed their games is annoying.

    I even give a pass for Dallas and the Giants. One is the Cowboys...I get the draw. The other is in NY (even though the jets are too). But damn can we at least get the Skins and Eagles the hell outta there. The Skins don't even have VA on lock as far as fans go to be real with you
