The NFC East is shaping up as a three-team race, and Sunday’s Cowboys-Redskins matchup will put one of those clubs in first place. The Eagles could take a share of the lead if they beat Carolina and Dallas wins.

Washington and Dallas are the only teams in the league that have alternated wins and losses throughout this season, though one of them will string together victories for the first time in Week 7.
