2016 NFL predictions: Super Bowl XLXI and more

JJ: Cowboys. Of course, this is assuming that all will be well with Tony Romo and the rest of the team stays healthy, but if they are, then really there is no better team in the division. All due respect to the Redskins, but if the Cowboys had stayed healthy then the title would have been theirs. Again, though, this all depends on Romo staying healthy and clavicle injuries are tricky after their suffered once.

MV: Cowboys. Provided that they enjoy better health and Jerry Jones does not go all Jerrah on the team by signing Robert Griffin III and Johnny Manziel, this team should roll in what has become one of the worst divisions in football. With Tony Romo back, this is one of the best offenses in the NFL.

MD: Cowboys. With a healthy Tony Romo and a healthy Dez Bryant, does anyone else really give a team in the NFC East a chance of stopping them. As long as those two superstars are healthy, they add a few solid pieces in the offseason to fill some holes, defensively and at running back, no one can stop the Cowboys from winning the division and making a deep post season run.

JH: Cowboys. When they lost Tony Romo in 2015, it was the end of their season. Dallas was almost unstoppable with Romo in the lineup and a bad call in 2014 kept him from the NFC Championship Game. For all the years of almost putting it together but having something go awry, this is the Cowboys year.

JB: Cowboys. Throw a dart, really. Philly has players but no coach. Same in New York. And who knows what kind of voodoo Jay Gruden used to piece together this season for the Redskins. Let’s just call this Romo’s last ride (with a little help from his backups RGIII and Johnny Football).

PA: Cowboys. The Romo injuty derailed the Cowboys’ season. With Romo, Dallas is head and shoulders above the rest of the East. All due respect to the progress Kirk Cousins has made.

Next: NFC North
