The NFC East is always competitive it seems. Regardless of how many times the experts say that the NFC East will be dominated by one team or another, they always end up being stuck in a high powered struggle. Three weeks ago, the NY Giants seemed as though they were going to run away with the East. Now, three weeks later, they find themselves looking up at not only the Eagles, but the left for dead Dallas Cowboys as well.
While the Eagles were stomping the Giants, the Cowboys were trampling all over the Seahawks. While certainly beating the Seattle Seahawks is no huge task of late, the Dallas Cowboys will certainly take it. for a few weeks there it appeared that Tony Romo was attempting to find his way to the Dallas Cowboys bench. Then came superstar Miles Austin – you know the guy that was supposed to have the breakout year? Before a couple weeks ago nobody even knew who he was. After the last couple weeks everybody knows his name, and Tony Romo in particular. Romo has a new best friend not named Jason Witten, and the reviews are all raving thus far.
As we head into the meat of the NFL football season, one cannot help but wonder how the NFC East will eventually end up. Will the Giants right the ship? Will the Philadelphia Eagles continuing to develop that high-powered offense? Will the Dallas Cowboys continue to get better every single week and give Tony Romo a chance to exorcise those postseason demons? No one seems to know for sure, but I would guess that the NFC East will continue to beat up on each other. This bodes well for the rest of the NFC when it comes time for the wild-card bids. It seems to happen every year.
