Though it wasn't exactly pretty, the Philadelphia Eagles took care of business Week 9 against the Chicago Bears on Sunday, putting pressure on the Dallas Cowboys to win to stay ahead of them in the two-horse NFC East.
The Cowboys are in New Jersey to take on the New York Giants on Monday Night Football. Earlier in the season, the Cowboys lost to a putrid New York Jets team at the Meadowlands, and Eagles fans will be hoping for the same result tonight.
Here's a look at the current NFC East standings:
| NFC East | Record | Division record | GB |
| Cowboys | 4-3 | 3-0 | - |
| Eagles | 5-4 | 1-1 | 0 (percentage points / head-to-head) |
| Giants | 2-6 | 1-1 | 2.5 |
| Washington | 1-8 | 0-3 | 4 |
Technically, the Eagles are currently zero games behind the Cowboys, though Dallas has played two fewer games. Dallas has a better winning percentage and the head-to-head advantage.
