It only needs to be so good. Just effective. Cousins having a good game is the critical issue assuming no extreme 'explosions'.

Go back as recent as week 5 and Jones was 14 for 31yds avg 2.2. I wouldn't assume it to be decent. As always its a division game and anything goes. We are the better team though.

I like how "you are what your record says you are" when we're 4-12 but when we're 5-1 we haven't played anybody.

I still want to know what the guy means when he says "The East goes through Washington." Can anyone explain?

When we won it in 2014 it's not like the division was setting the world on fire. Eagles were 10 win team. Giants 6 wins. Commanders 4 wins.

The division looks much more competitive this year.

And if you're in your own stadium and happy about a win...you can say what you want. They are riding a 4 game win streak. And did you hear the quotes coming out of our locker room sunday? We didn't exactly sound like a humble bunch.

All i'm saying is until they are mathmatically eliminated they are the defending champs and playing well and enjoying themselves. Good for them. Good for us.

The NFL bEast is back? About time. Get your popcorn ready.

Ehhhh. Stop if. Clearly the point is that every team sucked but someone still is crowned champ. Division was so bad last year that two coaches got fired as a result. We were literally mathematically in the race til like week 14 lol

In 2014 the boys were one of the best teams in the league and emphatically took the division from the eagles (who started out 9-2).

Commanders suck

We were fortunate to beat the Commanders earlier this year. We are getting better as we go along and our confidence is growing with each win, but the same is true of the Commanders. They looked pretty dominant against the Eagles.

I'm not sure if Philly is just now showing who they really are, or if the Commanders are beginning to hit their stride. While we are leading the NFC East at 5 and 1, don't look in the rear view mirror because there are three teams right on our tail wanting to "slingshot" ahead of us. I can hear then yelling "shake and bake" among themselves behind us.

I don't care what they're yelling. The Cowboys are in first place and they've done it in great fashion. Came back after being down by 14 on the road. First win in Lambeau for any visiting team in like 8 years. A defense playing out of its collective mind. An offensive line living up to its billings. All the while led by two rookies who ain't scared. Screw the three teams right on our tail. It's time for Cowboys fans to start tooting that Dallas horn without slobbering over every team but their own. Something special could be brewing for the team with the star on the helmet. Let's not miss it because we downplayed the good times until they passed us by.

We have a better offense.. they have a better front 7. Not sure who has the better D overall but it might be the Skins.

I think our defense is good enough to stop thier running game and force Cousins into errors. They will be one dimensional. Our offense with Zeke pounding the rock and Dak picking his spots will keep thier offense off the field. We can and should beat them.
