NFC East betting preview: Can anyone overtake the Eagles?
Briefly

The Philadelphia Eagles are favored to win the NFC East, though no team has repeated as champions in the division since the Eagles' four straight wins from 2001-04. The Washington Commanders follow with the next best odds, while the Dallas Cowboys and New York Giants trail behind. Best bets include wagering on the Commanders to win under 9.5 games due to tougher schedule conditions, and the Cowboys under 7.5 wins due to defensive issues and a challenging schedule as well.
No team has won the NFC East in back-to-back seasons since the Eagles won four straight from 2001-04, marking the longest streak without a repeat champ in a division in NFL history.
Washington's 12 wins last season were a product of a perfect storm: soft schedule, elite health, historic fourth-down luck, and nine wins in one-score games.
The Cowboys' defense faces injury issues, particularly in the secondary, and are challenged by a tough schedule, potentially leading to a disappointing outcome this season.
The Giants are holding the farthest odds in the division, sitting at +3000, reflecting a significant gap in expectations compared to other NFC East teams.
