"With the Eagles dropping three in a row and still only two games ahead of Dallas, they have become the most catchable playoff hopeful. Even the seventh-seeded Bears are 9-4, a game better than Philly overall. That means our division rivals are not only closest in mathematical range, but also the only NFC contender currently trending downward as we near the postseason."
"Current 2025 NFC Playoff Standings 1. Los Angeles Rams 10-3 (5-3)2. Green Bay Packers 9-3-1 (7-2-1)3. Philadelphia Eagles 8-5 (7-3)4. Tampa Bay Buccaneers 7-6 (5-4)5. Seattle Seahawks 10-3 (6-3)6. San Francisco 49ers 9-4 (8-2)7. Chicago Bears 9-3 (6-2 vs NFC)_______________________________8. Detroit Lions 8-5 (5-4)9. Carolina Panthers 7-6 (5-3)10. Dallas Cowboys 6-6-1 (3-5-1)"
Dallas' most realistic playoff path is through the NFC East because Philadelphia has dropped three straight and sits only two games ahead. The Chicago Bears at 9-4 sit a game better overall than the Eagles, making the division the most reachable route. No NFC team is mathematically unreachable; a four-game Rams collapse would still allow Dallas to catch the 10-3 Los Angeles team if Dallas wins out. Dallas must avoid more losses after the defeat at Detroit to preserve any realistic chance. A 9-7-1 finish would make playoff qualification very unlikely. Several needed opponents face teams already eliminated or playing for the other conference, improving Dallas' odds if rivals lose.
