	NFC East Is Back at the Top
		"The NFC East was always the premier division in the NFL, and the division winner always bred the best team in the playoffs, the most battle-tested," Houston General Manager Charley Casserly, who began his career with the Redskins in the 1970s, said earlier this season.
		The Redskins won four NFC East titles in the 1980s, the Giants won the division three times between 1986 and 1990 and Dallas began dominating with five straight division titles and six out of seven from 1992 to '98.
		Philadelphia has been the best NFC East team of the current decade, winning four straight championships since 2001 and advancing to the Super Bowl after the 2004 season, when the rest of the division essentially skidded in the wrong direction -- the three other teams each finished 6-10.

	Early Look At The NFC East • Brian DeLucia's Blog - FOX Sports Blogs
		Injuries ruined the NFC East last year, Philly losing McNabb, Washington losing Portis, Springs, Marcus Washington and a host of others off a defense that was ranked in the top 5 the 3 previous years.
		TBIAH, the NFC east had the most wins in the NFC last year and at the end of this year we'll see which divison has the most wins.
		The worst team in the NFC east will be better then any other last place team in any other division, or sometimes better then 3rd place teams.

	On football: Past its heyday, NFC East still packs punch - USATODAY.com
		The NFC East, the division of hard knocks, isn't what it used to be.
		In the 1990s, NFC East teams won five Super Bowls in six years with the kind of intimidating style that gave the division its tradition.
		And now, the only hope in the ever-shifting NFC East is a Dallas team that is peaking with Romo and with Phillips' relentless 3-4 defense.

	NFC East is a beast again -- themorningcall.com
		The NFC East appears back on track for the first time since a 10-year run from 1986 through 1995 that produced seven Super Bowl Champions with Dallas winning three (1992, 1993, 1995), and the Giants (1986, 1990) and Washington (1987, 1991) winning two each.
		In the other NFC East matchup on Sunday, the Eagles are at Washington in a battle that will ultimately reveal whether the Eagles remain a contender or simply a spoiler.
		But if you pause to look at some of the performances by the NFC East teams this season -- even taking the Cowboys' 48-27 home loss to the Patriots into consideration -- there is reason for hope, especially with the Big Three back on track at the halfway point of the season.

	NFC East Odds
		It doesn't take much digging to find an 'expert' that will make an argument that each of the four teams is destined to win it all.
		The Cowboys are the current betting favorite to win it all at 8/5, but the gap between them and the fourth choice, the Redskins (11/4), is tiny.
		Compare that to the NFC West, where the Seahawks are 1/4 and the 49ers are 20/1 (and far from a bargain at that).

	Giants battle vs. Cowboys is for NFC East bragging rights
		Two years in a row, the road to the Super Bowl in the NFC has gone straight through the heart of the Giants.
		Before eventually losing to the AFC on Super Sunday, players on both the '05 Seahawks and the '06 Bears admitted that the Giants game was a turning point for them - the spark that powered their Super Bowl runs.
		So while this game might not be considered Super Bowl XLI1/2 or even an NFC Championship Game preview, the experience of the last two years should make it clear to the Giants that there is more than just the NFC East lead at stake.

		There were a lot of changes in the NFC East during the off-season that should make one of the NFL’s toughest divisions exciting to watch in 2007.
		The Cowboys looked strong and destined to be one of the NFC elite after the emergence of Tony Romo, but fell off at the end and was out of the playoffs after the first round.
		The New York Giants fell apart due to internal chatter and the Washington Redskins were flat from the beginning of preseason and never made any real push for the playoffs.

	Football - NFC East Preview - Philadelphia Eagles
		It is hard to believe that the Eagles were in the Super Bowl just two short years ago.
		We do think the Eagles nailed a gem with defensive end Chris Gocing in the third round, but he is more of a pass rusher than a run stopper.
		All in all there is no veteran help to this unit to speak of, which we feel seals the Eagles’ fate to finish in the NFC East cellar again, two years after reaching the NFC summit.

		For a stretch of years I have been picking the Eagles to win the NFC East.
		Call me a homer but the fact is the Eagles have been the best team year in and year out every year in the NFC East, even the disastrous post Super Bowl year they probably had the best talent top to bottom but injuries (and personal conflicts) derailed that season form the start.
		Yes, the Eagles have all the makings of cruising their way to another NFC East championship and could be in the running for home field advantage in the NFC playoffs as long as the team stays healthy.
