NFC East in 2021: Cowboys are favored, but can Washington repeat?

The NFC East is up for grabs for the 2021 NFL season. That's nothing unusual. After all, this is a division that hasn't had a repeat winner since the Philadelphia Eagles in 2004.

As if that's not enough, none of the division's storied franchises managed to finish with a winning record last season, leaving lots of room for improvement.

The Washington Football Team is the default defending NFC East champion after finishing 7-9. But the Dallas Cowboys are still the early favorites, for seemingly the 20th consecutive year. Clearly hope annually springs eternal for Cowboy Nation.
