NFC East makes unwanted history as first division ever to go winless in consecutive weeks

NFC Least? The division is 0-6-2 since Week 5 No one wants to win the 2026 NFC East division. Seriously. After Weeks 5 and 6, this season's NFC East is now the first division in NFL history with consecutive winless weeks with four-plus games played, per CBS Sports Research. The division's four teams are a combined 0-6-2 since Week 5. In Week 5, the Dallas Cowboys (2-4) lost 24-16 at home on "Thursday Night Football" to the previously winless Tampa Bay Buccaneers, with Jalon Daniels, an undrafted rookie quarterback, making his second career start. In Week 6, their offense looked lifeless in a 23-13 road loss at the Green Bay Packers on "Sunday Night Football." Dallas also has the NFL's 30th-ranked total defense (382.5 yards allowed per game), last-place run defense (149.8 yards allowed per game), and last-place third-down defense (54.7% third-down conversion rate allowed).

The Packers entered Week 6 as the NFL's worst third-down offense with a conversion rate of 27.6%, but they went 11-for-18 on third downs Sunday night. The two-time defending division champion Philadelphia Eagles have the least embarrassing losses of the last two weeks: a 19-17 defeat to the AFC South-leading Jaguars despite kicking a go-ahead field goal with eight seconds left, and a 25-14 home defeat to the NFC South-leading Panthers.
