HOUSTON -- Ah, the good old NFC East, where no one ever knows anything and sometimes no one appears to be very good.
Four storied teams, one winning record between them, and by midnight ET that number will drop to zero unless the Washington Redskins can pull off a Monday Night Football upset in New Orleans.
The Dallas Cowboys could have been 3-2 after Sunday night's game here against the Houston Texans if they'd been able to make a couple of big plays in the passing game. The defending champion Philadelphia Eagles could have been 3-2 if they'd been able to win a home game against the team they beat by 31 in the NFC Championship Game a little more than eight months ago. Even the woebegone New York Giants could have climbed to within a game of .500 if not for Carolina hitting a 63-yard field goal on them as time ran out.
But those are all "ifs," and none of them came in, so every NFC East team that played Sunday lost and is under .500 five weeks into the season.
