Last week saw the rich get richer in the NFC. The 49ers, Eagles, and Lions all won and, especially with San Francisco’s drubbing of Dallas, made it clear who the top three in the conference are. Will the Week 6 schedule allow this trio to further cement their playoff positions, or will some other teams start to close the gap?
The 49ers’ blowout of the Cowboys was certainly the biggest game of the week within the NFC. The Eagles’ road win over the Rams wasn’t without meaning; an in-conference victory and a loss for a potential wild card team.
