Perhaps i'm mistaken, but IIRC the Eagles have won 5 division titles, won 8 playoff games, made it to 4 NFC title games and a Superbowl since the last time Dallas even won a playoff game.

Conversely, under Reid, the Eagles have never lost their first playoff game.

The Eagles are probably not as good as their 2004 superbowl squad, but they probably are as good as the NFC East winning 2nd round of the playoffs 2006 squad.

On top of that, the Giants are reigning world champions.

From where i sit Romo is a fraud, the Cowboys are completely unproven pretenders, and they're likely to be home golfing after round 1 of the playoffs....again.
Yes, the Eagles beat the Cowboys in Dallas (10-6) - but the Cowboys beat the Eagles in Philidelphia 38-17 in the first meeting of last season.

I don't think Romo is a fraud, but he hasn't proven to me that he's consistant.

I also don't think the Giants will be anywhere near the playoffs this season. If there's a fraud in the NFC East, it's Eli Manning. He came through when it was absolutely necessary and I'll be floored if they even come close to the level of play that they demonstrated in the last half of last season.
