Last year, Dallas, Philly, and the NYG all made it. The NFC East usually sends at least 2 every year. In the past 10 years only 4 times has the NFC East failed to send 2 teams into the post season (1997, 1998, 2001, 2004). 3 out of those 4 times the NFC East was only 1 game away from sending 2 teams (usually this Skins were the #7 seed). Only in 2004 was the entire NFC East (except Philly) completely out of the Playoff hunt when WAS, NYG, and DAL all finished with a 6-10 record. In short, 60% of the time the NFC East sends 2, and 20% of the time they send 3, which is still more than any other division in the NFC. The NFC East never fell off of the map. We just dont have 2 teams that post 12+ win seasons, because everybody in our Division can play.

Usually our division splits wins with each other. That is 3 loses right off the bat. Everyone is going to pick up a few more L's down the line, unless you are NE or the 72 Dolphins.

The NFC East always has been, is, and probably always will be the toughest Division in the NFL.

I agree with the excecption of the PAT's the Redskins are the hottest team in the NFL right now. It is very possible for us to go all the way because of how we have been playing.
