The Beasts of the NFC East.

At this point of the season, I don't think there is any question which is the best division in football. Clearly, the NFC East is the toughest. The combined record of the 4 teams is 10-2 and the only two losses came from other teams within the division.

The East is the only division to have two 3-0 teams (Dallas and NYG).

They are also the only division to have all 4 teams with a winning record.

Last week, the NFC East teams knocked off the division leaders in the NFC North and the NFC West (Dallas beat GB and Washington beat AZ).

Playing in the NFC East is going to be the biggest challenge for the Skins this year. All the teams are stacked and considered playoff contenders.

Every one of these divisional games is a rivalry and every one of these games is hard fought. The Skins play two divisional games on the road in the next two weeks (Dallas and then Philly). If we can manage to split those two games, we are in great shape going into week 6.
