After their first six games of the season, the Philadelphia Eagles are perhaps the surprise team in the NFL, as they are sitting pretty at 5-1, which is currently the second best record in the NFL, and the best record in the NFC.
It's been a long time since it's been worthwhile looking at the records of teams other than the Eagles' NFC East rival, but with a better than 90 percent chance of making the playoffs, taking a peek at the rest of the conference perhaps isn't so crazy. Here's where the NFC stands heading into Sunday of Week 6:
| NFC | Record | Conf record | Div record | GB |
| Eagles | 5-1 | 4-0 | 2-0 | - |
| Packers | 4-1 | 3-1 | 1-0 | 0.5 |
| Falcons | 3-1 | 3-0 | 0-0 | 1 |
| Panthers | 4-2 | 2-2 | 0-1 | 1 |
| Vikings | 3-2 | 3-1 | 1-1 | 1.5 |
| Seahawks | 3-2 | 2-1 | 2-0 | 1.5 |
| Lions | 3-2 | 3-2 | 1-0 | 1.5 |
| Rams | 3-2 | 2-2 | 1-1 | 1.5 |
| Buccaneers | 2-2 | 2-1 | 0-0 | 2 |
| Saints | 2-2 | 1-1 | 1-0 | 2 |
| Redskins | 2-2 | 1-1 | 0-1 | 2 |
| Cowboys | 2-3 | 2-2 | 1-0 | 2.5 |
| Cardinals | 2-3 | 1-3 | 1-0 | 2.5 |
| Bears | 1-4 | 0-4 | 0-2 | 3.5 |
