The NFC NFC East has at least 2 teams in the playoffs in the past 3 seasons. It is not a coincidence that the Philadelphia Eagles and the Dallas Cowboys have the highest projected win total in the division.Both teams won over 10 games last season.
The Eagles are projected at 10.5 wins. The Eagles had a total collapse at the end of 2023 when they loss 5 of their last 6 and an opening round playoff game to the Tampa Bay Bucanners by ascore of 32-9. The Eagles have added RB Saquon Barklry to upgrade the running attack and drafted two highly touted rookies to shore up the secondary. They should be able to withstand the losses of Jason Kelce,Flecther Cox and D'Andre Swift. The Eagles go over 10.5
The Dallas Cowboys are projected at 10.5. The Cowboys were 12-5 in 2023. They lost in the opening round of the NFL Wild Card round to the Green Bay Packers by a score of 48-32.The Cowboys loss RB Tony Pollard in free agency to the Tennessee Titans. They brought back RB Ezekiel Elliott after he struggled in his one year stint with the Nw England Patriots.This is a contract year for Quarterback Dak Prescott.At this time, WR Ceedee Lamb is not in camp due to a contract dispute. This is not a blueprint for team unity in any situation. The Cowboys go under 10.5.
The Washington Commandersare projected at 6.5. The Commanders record in 2023 was 4-13. The team struggled with injuries and traded key defensive players during the middle of the season. This led to the firing of Head Coach Ron Rivera and the selection of QB Jayden Daniels with the 2nd pick of the NFL Draft. Daniels was thewinner of the 2023 Heisman Trophy.The Commanders should match last year and get at least 3 wins outside of the division.If the combination of Daniels and QB Sam Howell can get 3 wins in the division,that is a pathway to go over. Washington over 6.5.
The New York Giants are projected at 6.5. The Giants record in 2023 was 6-11. The Giants are led by QB Daniel Jones. Jones has not delivered on his 160,00,00 million dollar contract. He has been injury prone and sacked 179 times in his 5 season.His record in games played with Saquon Barkley was 14-23-1. Without Barkley,Jones was 8-14. No Barkley means more problem.The wheels fall off in New York and the Giants go under the 6.5.
