1. Cowboys Win the NFC East

From the beginning, coaches tell their teams that the first thing they need to do is win their division in order to secure a home game. Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy has been doing the same and now has Dallas in a position to win a division that at one point looked out of reach because of their belief and determination. The fact that they lost their starting quarterback for five weeks and still have the ability to win is amazing.

This roster believes they have something special and that belief and motivation have kept them in games all season despite the obstacles thrown their way and times when games were lost in situations that would demoralize a team. Now with a win against the Commanders and an Eagles loss, the Cowboys could do the unthinkable, win the division and possibly secure a first-round bye.

Game Prediction: Cowboys win the division but not a first-round bye.
