What better way to make my “Iggles” debut than to recklessly speculate, and completely nerd out, which is what I completely plan to do here.

The NFC East isn’t looking too good these days. Seven weeks of football, and we aren’t any closer to knowing who the clear standout is. A relatively strong case can be made for each team. “Relative” being the keyword in that sentence. The Dallas Cowboys are the reigning NFC East champs, but have lost a lot. Almost too much. But they will be gaining a lot back at the right times. Philadelphia has already been down their current road and managed to 180. The New York Giants are as up-and-down as any other season and the Washington Redskins are playing their hearts out right now.

But it’s going to take more than one line to break down each team. Let’s take a look where each team is at, and where they may end up by Week 11. But why is Week 11 so important? Because that’s when the Cowboys should be back at full strength and the Giants, Redskins, and Eagles should have things ironed out. Week 11 is where the NFC East can get very intriguing.
