Analyzing the 2012 NFL Schedule: NFC East

Finally we are to the NFC. Today's post is the NFC East:

NFC East:
Dallas Cowboys-
Key Game- Week 15 vs Steelers. This was a tough decision to decide the real key game. The Cowboys schedule will be no lay down this year and their record will show it. If the Cowboys want to show they can win this division, he is a game they have to win. It is very late into the season and the playoff picture will be just about set. Again this year, I think the NFC East will come down to week 17 but I really do think the Eagles will take this division. Back to the game, I think the Cowboys will win this game but I do not see them making the playoffs. If they do stay in the race I think this will be the biggest game of the year for them.
Overall record for the Cowboys- 7-9

New York Giants-
Key Game- Week 16 at Baltimore. Again, another hard decision as the Giants schedule is rough to. The one thing that the Giants really have to bank on is the fact that if they can last through the first 10 weeks and stay in the hunt for the division, they have a week 11 bye so they will be fresh to end the season. I don't see the Giants being able to find a way to win this game. Going into Baltimore with that tough defense they have, the Giants just won't be able to put up points. Joe Flacco comes out as the difference maker and makes a big play to win this game.
Overall record for the Giants- 9-7

Philadelphia Eagles-
Key Game- Week 17 at New York. The Eagles are my Superbowl pick and I think their schedule definitely favors them. It is definitely Superbowl or bust this year. Last year was somewhat acceptable because they did not have chemistry as well as they personal didn't fit each other. The Eagles are probably going to GIVE Samuel to the Falcons because of cap room. I picked this as the key game, not because the division will come down to the last week, but this will be their biggest road game of the year and will be the chance for them to prove themselves. Vick will get even better this year and the wide-9 will work like it did at the end of the season and the Eagles take the game.
Overall record for the Eagles- 13-3

Washington Redskins-
Key Game- Week 6 vs Vikings. There seems to be a lot of hype that around the Redskins that they will be good this year with RG3. I don't see it at all. In fact, I see an absolutely horrible season from them. RG3 will be a rookie and isn't the leader that can rally a team to a bunch of wins. This schedule isn't easy, and the talent of the Redskins doesn't help one bit. The Redskins fans really need to lower their expectations as they won't see much from this team. I think they could win up to four games, partially because of RG3's legs, but it just isn't going to be what Redskin fans are hoping for. They win this game as one of only two they win throughout the season. Again this team will be at the bottom of the division.
Overall record for the Redskins- 2-14
