At the end of week 13 Philadelphia is drill looking for that victory that will clinch the division. Thanks to a loss to Seattle, the ineptitude of the Redskins, and the Dallas Cowboys resurgence on Thursday night, the Eagles are still a victory or Dallas loss away from wrapping up the East.

Philadelphia Eagles
The Eagles and MVP candidate Carson Wentz lost their first game in nine weeks on Sunday. The Seahawks defense minus the legion of boom was able to terrorize the birds into a 24-10 loss.
A Look Ahead
Next week the Eagles will finally have their showdown with LA. The Rams are coming off a big win and look to be a tough opponent. As it stands the Eagles are a 2.5 road underdog.
Washington Redskins
The Redskins were beat down by the Cowboys in Dallas to the tune of 38-14. Kurt Cousins was solid but just plain not good enough, passing for 251 yards and 2 scores and 2 interceptions. Chris Thompson was not the contributor he had been in of weeks pass. With the 38-14 loss the Skins drop even further in the divison and find themselves looking in on the playoff picture.
A Look Ahead
The Redskins have a tough outing against a red hot Chargers team. The Bolts have won 5-6 and have playoff hopes of there own. As it stands the Skins are a 6 point underdog.

Dallas Cowboys
The Cowboys followed up a beat down by the Eagles with a terrific performance, against the Redskins. No Ezekiel Elliot no problem, the Cowboys were easily able to chew up 182 yards on the ground.
A Look Ahead
Coming off a big win the Cowboys face a Giants team in turmoil. This should be a game Dallas should win, evident by the fact they are a 4 point road favorite.
New York Giants
The G-Men hit a new low in week 13. Not only did they lose the game, and desecrate the streak, they lost their coach and GM who were both fired. Orleans Darkwa only managed to picked up 32 yards on 14 carries against the Raiders. This latest lost may have put New York in the driver’s seat for a top 2 pick.
A Look Ahead
Coming up next on the schedule for New York is the 6-6 Cowboys. The Cowboys are coming off the big win and are still barely alive in the playoff hunt. A loss for New York looks almost definite, evident by the fact the Giants are a 4 point underdog.
