Last week tightened things up among the current NFC playoff contenders. With the 49ers and Eagles both taking surprising losses, we’ve come out of the first third of the 2023 season with plenty of intrigue ahead. Will the Week 7 schedule prove equally interesting?
The aforementioned upsets created a three-way tie between Frisco, Philly, and the Detroit Lions now as 5-1 teams. The Cowboys are right behind them at 4-2, and will now sit back during their bye week and hope to see some more surprising losses.
While a lot can happen over the remaining 11 weeks of the regular season, an upper crust does seem to be forming in the NFC.
