NFC East

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The NFC East is one of four divisions of the National Football Conference (NFC). Along with the American Football Conference (AFC), the NFC is one of the two conferences of the National Football League (NFL). These two conferences are each divided into four divisions, geographically according to the four cardinal points. The NFC and AFC are not divided according to geographic location. The New York Giants play in the NFC and the New York Jets , which even use the same home stadium as the Giants, play in the AFC. The NFC East includes the New York Giants (four Super Bowl wins), the Dallas Cowboys (five), the Washington Redskins (three) and the Philadelphia Eagles (one). With a total of thirteen Super Bowl victories, it is the most successful division in the NFL.
