NFC East Makes Unwanted History on Sunday Night
19 Oct
Summary
- NFC East teams are on the verge of making unwanted NFL history.
- The division could be the first since the merger to go winless for two straight weeks.
- Oddsmakers project a 0-6-2 record for the NFC East over the past two weeks.
The NFC East faces the prospect of making unwanted NFL history. A loss for the Washington Commanders on Monday night against the 49ers would result in the division becoming the first since the merger to complete two consecutive weeks without a single win, despite all its teams being in action.
Over the past two weeks, both the Philadelphia Eagles and the Dallas Cowboys have recorded 0-2 records. The New York Giants, following a tie with the Commanders in Week Five, subsequently lost to the Saints on Sunday. With the 49ers heavily favored by more than a touchdown in Monday night's game, oddsmakers anticipate the NFC East concluding this two-week stretch with a combined 0-6-2 record.
Looking ahead to Week Seven, the division's fortunes may change. The Commanders will have a bye week, while the Giants travel to Houston. The Eagles and Cowboys are scheduled to play each other. This slate of games offers a strong possibility for the division to achieve its ninth win of the season.
