Ouch. I'm an Eagles fan, but I'll answer anyway. As I see it, you guys will be better. You've definitely found a quarterback in Jason Campbell. And with Betts and Portis, you'll have one of the better running back tandems in the game. I think the problem is that Snyder loves to overpay in the offseason. He brings in guys that aren't really in demand and gives them whopping contracts which ends up backfiring. See, e.g., Adam Archuleta.
Also, I have some reservations about the touted Al Saunders offense. It was supposed to put up a gazillion points, but didn't. This is either 1) the offense sucks, 2) the coaches didn't do a good job implementing it or 3) the players couldn't execute. Who knows. Maybe after a second season, the familiarity will help and things will start to click. Personally, I think you would be better off running the West Coast offense with your current personel. Cooley was a great find, and he was almost invisible in the first half of the season (which is odd considering how big a part of the KC offense T. Gonz is / was). You've got a versatile back in Portis and a bruiser in Betts. You've got some good possession receivers. West Coast isn't as flashy as the Al Saunders offense, but when run well with the right guys can be quite effective.
Your defense definitely needs some shoring up, but it isn't a total disaster. You've got a huge playmaker in Sean Taylor but definitely need another coverage guy to balance his agressiveness.
I don't know what Snyder and Gibbs are going to do in the offseason. Due to the huge bump in the salary cap, this year's free agency period is going to be slim pickings. If the Redskins have a smart draft and consider the possibility of trading one of their marquee guys for additional draft picks and a solid run stopper, they might be in business.
Honestly, who knows how it will turn out. If you had asked me in the end of last year whether the Saints would be good this year I would have laughed in your face. If you had asked me the day Donovan McNabb went down whether I saw my team in the Conference semi-finals, I would have said, "I wish." You guys are due for a big run. Better the 'Skins than the Giants or the Cowboys.
Go Birds!

10-6 yet im nonetheless no longer offered on Jason Campbell and Haynesworth gets injury another play. And whilst he's no longer injury he will stomp on between the Cowboy's offensive linemans heads returned.

I predict they will go 10 - 6, and manage to make a wildcard playoff birth, but will lose in their 2nd playoff game !

No..Sorry. They have to many questions marks. They need a good arm at QB and have too many problems on defense. Its gonna be a few years.

yes, they will be good, jason campell will be the starting QB, and clinton portis will be healthy.. but the important thing will be to give the ball to Santana Moss and Brandon Llyod
