At the end of the day, I think it's a race to 9 wins to earn a Wildcard spot. I think you will need 10 wins to claim the NFC East this season. A team to keep an eye on is Philly - they just don't seem to want to go away. Sitting at 6 wins, they have 3 of their final four games at home.
For us, given our favourable conference record at this point, going 3-2 the rest of the way should be enough to claim some form of a playoff spot. Given the momentum we have built over the last four weeks, that should be a goal we can reach. As is always the case, your divisional performance will determine your season. We need to get to 4-2 overall in the East to leave no doubt about our playoff chances.
It's amazing. After all the crap the NFC East took from those around league circles a season ago, it is not inconceivable to believe that 3 teams from our division could legitimately qualify for the playoffs in 2021.
