NFL Week 6 Picks: Predicting How the NFC East Will Look After This Weekend

The NFL has been full of twists and turns after just five weeks in the 2011 football season.

There may be nothing that has been more shocking than how the NFC East has been shaping up.

Following Week 6 we will be more than a third of the way through the season.

How will the NFC East look then? Here are the predictions.

4. Philadelphia Eagles (1-5)

This dream team has turned into an absolute nightmare in Philadelphia.

Fans are calling for Juan Castillo and Andy Reid to get out of the city.

The Eagles no longer have the Phillies to keep these fans satisfied. A 1-5 start after a loss against the Redskins this weekend will mark the beginning of the end for the Reid era in Philadelphia.

The only thing fans will have to look forward to is who the next head coach will be.

3. Dallas Cowboys (2-3)

The Dallas Cowboys have been a major let down so far this season as well.

The only difference is that they didn't spend ridiculous amounts of money this offseason. They spend ridiculous amounts of money every offseason.

The Cowboys could easily be 5-0. They have lost two games by a spread of four and three points.

That is, until the Patriots dismantle them this weekend.

2. New York Giants (4-2)

The New York Giants have been inconsistent.

Despite this, they are still in the race for the NFC East that the Cowboys and Eagles took themselves out of early on.

The Bills have impressed early on, but the end of their crazy run starts in New York this weekend.

Eli Manning will tear apart this Buffalo secondary. The Giants defense should be able to do just enough to hold on.

1. Washington Redskins (4-1)

When Rex Grossman proclaimed that the Washington Redskins were the team to beat in the NFC East before the season started, everybody laughed.

Who would have thought that he was actually right?

The Redskins boast the No. 2 scoring defense in the NFL. They have also started to put things together on offense with the running game.

It will be that running game that will kill all hopes for the Eagles this weekend.

The Washington Redskins really are the team to beat in the division.
