NFL 2023 Playoffs: Here’s What Could Make or Break Eagles, Cowboys and 49ers

With just a month left until the playoffs kick-off, deserving teams are getting nearer to securing a playoff spot soon. In the NFC division, three teams have made their mark felt and these include fan favorite NFC divisions, the Eagles, the Cowboys, and the 49ers. While the Eagles looked a sure-shot contender last week, the turnaround has now opened the gates for the other two to follow.

The 49ers completely decimated the Eagles 42-19 in their last game and uplifted their hopes of securing a playoff berth. On the other hand, the Cowboys clinched victory 41-35 in a nail-biting finish against the Seahawks. The Cowboys and the Eagles are going to face each other this week and the 49ers will lock their horns against the Seahawks. What is required for these teams to secure a playoff spot?

Exciting battles come with exciting prospects!

This week’s game will provide the chance for these three times to make a spot in the playoffs. Rich Eisen elaborated on the scenarios in his show. He started with the Eagles by making it simpler and shared the scenarios. “Last week, the Philadelphia Eagles were the first to have the play-off clinching scenario in the NFL and uh, couldn’t do it as we saw…so they still have one this week,” he broke down the Eagles’ upcoming prospect. He then also shed light on the 49ers and the Cowboys.

We will list down these details starting with the Eagles. They need to win against the Cowboys and with that, the Seahawks must lose against the 49ers. Other than this The Rams and the Packers need to lose their next game for sure. What is interesting if the 49ers do win against the Seahawks that will be a plus for the Eagles but the 49ers also need the Packers to lose their next game and the Vikings’ loss will add the icing on the cake.

On the back of exceptional performances from their respective QBs, the Eagles have assimilated ten wins with .833 Pct and the other two teams are following right back with nine wins and have achieved .750 Pct each. Jalen Hurts has led the Eagles from the front with his 19 TDs and 2,995 passing yards. On the other hand, Brock Purdy‘s performances are shattering records. He has secured 23 TDs with just 6 interceptions.

The next team is the Cowboys who also have won nine games this season. Though the Cowboys’ win against the Eagles is highly speculative, we can’t just predict the outcomes and this NFL season has proved this once again.

The Cowboys are still in the hunt

Yes, the 49ers have proved themselves by defeating the Eagles but the Cowboys will get their chance to do the same this week if they win against the Eagles. Still, their chances are bleak as after securing the win they still have six other results to go in their favor that need at least five teams to lose their games including the Seahawks against the 49ers.

The Cowboys QB Dak Prescott has once again proved why he rules the charts. The athlete has secured an astounding 26 TDs in 12 games. The next games are surely going to become a head-scratcher.

Who will hold the baton first in the NFC? When it comes down to these NFC teams, here’s what things look like: Eagles are still topping the NFC division (10-2)  despite their loss to the 49ers. The latter is second (9-3) and can clinch the playoff berth still. Here’s the catch. Cowboys (9-3) are clear leaders in the wild card race but need to be careful of the Eagles.

The NFC is playing their merry-go-round at the highest level. Other than these there is the Lions who have also registered nine wins this season. Which team will clinch the playoff spot first? Do let us know your thoughts in the comments!
