This week was a crazy one for the NFC East. The Washington Commanders topped the Chicago Bears in a 12-7 Thursday Night Football shootout, while the New York Giants and Philadelphia Eagles also picked up wins on Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens and Dallas Cowboys respectively.

There are certainly some major things to take away from each team this week. However, to start, we will look at the division as a whole. After the past two seasons, when NFL fans and media made fun of the “NFC Least” for being such a bad division in terms of its quality of teams, the script has flipped quite dramatically.

Now, the NFC East has the best record against non-divisional opponents following Week 6 action. The Eagles seem to be the best team in football, the G-Men have made quite the impression by beating the Green Bay Packers and Ravens in back-to-back weeks, and the Cowboys are 4-2 and are getting their top-10 quarterback back from injury.

As the NFC East currently stands, the Eagles reside in the top spot of both the division and conference at 6-0. The Giants are now second in the division with a 5-1 record, followed by the Cowboys at 4-2. The Commanders remain last in the division, sitting at 2-4.

For this article, I will go over each team, highlighting how they got to where they are, how they’ve performed, and a final record prediction. I will also be naming the most valuable player for each team as well.
