Dallas Cowboys playoff path the easiest in NFC East
By Brad Austin
DIRTY BIRDS SEEKING THREE
CURRENT: PHILADELPHIA (3-5-1)
TARGET: PHILADELPHIA (6-9-1)
Assuming Dallas beats Philadelphia in the Week 16 rematch as this path demands, the Eagles would need to defeat three of the following six opponents.
- Cleveland (6-3)
- Seattle (6-3)
- Green Bay (7-2)
- New Orleans (7-2)
- Arizona (6-3)
- Washington (2-7)
Good luck finding two more wins beyond Washington. Four of those teams are at least tied for first place in their division. And Cleveland is a load to stop. The Browns racked up 508 total yards and 307 rushing yards on Dallas.
The Eagles won’t reach the six total wins needed to top the 6-10 Cowboys.
