Watching Jalen Hurts lead another spirited performance for the Eagles on Sunday got me thinking a little deeper about the worst division in football. Some NFC team will be thanking the football gods for drawing the No. 4 seed once this thing is all said and done—right now that would be the Rams team that just lost to the Jets this past weekend—though there has to be a hierarchy among NFL coaches as to who they’d want to face the least.
Washington has a 75% chance of winning the NFC East, according to FiveThirtyEight, while the Giants have a 10% chance, the Eagles have a 9% chance and the Cowboys have a 5% chance (needing only to win out, for Washington to lose out, for the Giants to go 1–1 and the Eagles to go 1–1 the rest of the way).
