The NFC East is looking as competitive as ever this season and what ever team makes out of the conference is sure to make waves in the playoffs.
Here is how I think the NFC East will fair this week. Every game, every week counts.
New York Giants at Arizona Cardinals
The New York Giants are fresh off their big win over conference rival Philadelphia Eagles and are as unpredictable as any team with the amount of injuries the team has sustained.
The latest injury that could cause some problems for the Giants is Hakeem Nicks and his swollen knee. He will be a game time decision, but if he is ready to go he has a great opportunity to break through against a struggling Cardinals defense.
Prediction: New York Giants 30, Arizona Cardinals 17
Detroit Lions at Dallas Cowboys
The new and improved Detroit Lions are going in to Dallas looking to bump their record to 4-0, but the Dallas Cowboys will put a up a fight. The Cowboys are hot off their field goal infested win over in-conference rival the Washington Redskins.
The Cowboys have major injury concerns heading into Week 4 as star wideout Miles Austin is out for sure, and the other wide receiver weapon Dez Bryant is questionable. Throw that on top of the injured quarterback Tony Romo and the cards will be stacked against Dallas this week.
I feel the Lions defense will prove to be too much for the Cowboys and their injuries. The Cowboys will lose in a close battle, dropping to 2-2.
Prediction: Detroit Lions 21, Dallas Cowboys 17
Washington Redskins at St. Louis Rams
The Washington Redskins will take on the highly underachieving Rams in St. Louis and will look to bounce back after a tough loss to the Dallas Cowboys in Week 3.
The Redskins should be victorious in the game, behind running back Tim Hightower, as he should have a huge game against the Rams who have the NFL's worst rush defense.
Prediction: Washington Redskins 24, St. Louis Rams 13
San Francisco 49ers at Philadelphia Eagles
The Philadelphia Eagles have been a far cry from what they were expected to be this season after a high-profile offseason.
The Eagles should get their record to .500 at 2-2 against the San Francisco 49ers Sunday. The 49ers aren't at full-strength, as two of their top offensive weapons have suffered injuries; with Braylon Edwards out for the game and running back Frank Gore is expected to take limited snaps.
Michael Vick should have a good enough game against the so-so 49ers pass defense, and should look more like the Vick from last year.
Prediction: Philadelphia Eagles 30, San Francisco 49ers 16
Vancouver Canucks Anaheim Ducks Dallas Los Angeles Kings Phoenix Coyotes San Jose Sharks
