Dallas is a contender, but I think they are the most likely to implode.
This is the NFC East my friend. One of only 2 divisions in the past several years to send 3 of 4 teams to the playoffs practically every year. There is no greater pressure to produce than in the NFC East.

Teams like Cincy, Cleveland, Kansas City, Houston can publicly state "we are rebuilding" and get away with it for 3 or 4 years. But "rebuilding" is simply not a luxury the teams in the NFC East have. You will never hear that phrase used from the 4 teams in this division. All 4 teams rank in the top 10 in NFL Franchises for revenue. All 4 teams have the highest following than any other division. Failure is not an option.

What, you do not think that if Washington does not make the post season that Zorn will be listed as one of the coaches on the hot seat?

How many threads have we seen on this site alone that state the if Zorn does not come through that Shannahan will get the call from Snyder? And Zorn is only in his second year as a head coach.

Think about it. When you read or hear the media talk about other teams in the NFL, they classify a playoff BERTH as a successful season. But in the NFC East, anything less than playoff wins and Super Bowls is a failure.

They don't call it the NFC "Beast" for nothing.
