NFC East overview

New York Giants' James Bradberry among PFF's best free agent signings

This year the NFC East has been nothing short of a joke to the football world. The teams have been disgraceful and the injury plague has been running rapid through the division. Every team has suffered losses including star QB Dak Prescott from dem boys. In this article I will be discussing what has gone right and what has gone bad for each NFC East team, also there chances on winning the division.

Cowboys:

The Cowboys may be the most disappointing team in the league this year and haven't been able to show there talent for years. Coming into the season it looked like they had potential to be a top team in the league with great young talent, a top receiving core, and a star QB, I was also hopeful for there defense this season but there defense has been nothing short of embarrassing. There defense has been arguably the worst in the league but there offense has been the complete opposite by proving themselves once again to be a force in the NFL. If football was mainly an offensive game they'd be great but sadly it's not. They also haven't just sustained injury's on defense there offense has taken a hit too after Dak completely twisted his ankle the wrong way in last weeks close win against the Giants. Now the red rocket (Andy Dalton) will be the starter and try to prove he still has some left in the tank. Right now the Cowboys are first in the NFC East and it will likely stay that way for the rest of the season since the rest of the teams are more mediocre then they are. If there defense can step it up they have a chance of maybe going 9-7.

Eagles:

The Eagles have been disappointing since they won the super bowl and it's all because of "BIG DICK NICK" I'm just kidding, injury's and there WR core have been mostly to blame. Injury's have devastated the Eagles roster after losing most of there WR core and even there QB Carson Wentz. There defense has also taken some losses over the years including Darby from last season, this season injury's haven't affected there defense as much though so that can't be there big excuse. Jalen Hurts is patiently waiting behind the struggling Carson Wentz for a shot, I wouldn't be suprised if Hurts got a chance to start sooner rather then later. The only chance the Eagles have of winning the East is if Wentz steps it up and starts playing well and if magically the whole roster was immune from the injury plague. I wouldn't be suprised if the Eagles went 7-9 but I don't see them anywhere over 8-8.

Giants:

The Giants have also been much worse then expected after there very successful offseason with additions including rising star corner in James Bradberry and the tackling machine Blake Martinez. They also added star safety/corner Logan Ryan who has been very good this season at safety for the giants in place for Xavier Mckinney. This season the Giants have been the opposite of what most fans expected with a top defense but a mediocre offense this season. I expected it to be the other way around since that's how it's been since the 2016 season. This season there have been a few bright spots with mostly dark ones including QB Daniel Jones. This season Daniel was an expected breakout canidate but hasn't been close to a breakout player this season, he's struggled tremendously and the turnovers are still a large problem. The Giants will likely finish the season with a top 3 draft pick and will start there offseason by firing there unsuccessful GM Dave Gettleman. The Giant's likely won't win the NFC East and hopefully will finish there season at least 6-10.

Football Team:

I don't even want to say the Football teams name because of how bad they've been. They seemingly have no QB plans for the future after the benching of Dwayne Haskins and Kyle Allen hasn't been any better. There offense is bad but at least there defense is half decent., there D Line is dominant and Chase Young is an absolute monster to say the least. If they draft a top QB like Trey Lance, Justin Fields or #1 draft pick Trevor Lawrence there may be some hope for there future after all. I don't even need to say if they could go to the playoffs or not because anyone that's not completely brain dead would know they may not even go 4-12. Sorry Football Team fans but your favorite team just has no hope, they may be just as bad as the Jets.
