2026 NFC East Preview: Eagles, Cowboys, Commanders, and Giants Recap
The NFC East is gearing up for the 2026 season, with the Philadelphia Eagles looking to secure their third consecutive division title. The Eagles, who faced challenges in their offense last season, are joined by the Dallas Cowboys, Washington Commanders, and New York Giants, all of whom are striving to improve after a lackluster 2025.
In 2025, the Eagles struggled offensively, while the Cowboys dealt with defensive issues, allowing a high number of points.

Looking ahead, the Eagles are projected to finish with an 11-6 record, while the Cowboys aim for a 9-8 finish. The Commanders are expected to improve to 7-10, and the Giants are projected to end the season at 6-11. The upcoming season will test the teams' adjustments and their ability to bounce back from previous disappointments.
