The NFC East founded in 1970 is a division of the National Football League's National Football Conference (NFC) founded in 1970. It currently has four members all of which have been in the division since 1970:
NFC East teams have combined to be the most successful division in the NFL since the 1970 NFL merger with 21 NFC Championship wins and 13 Super Bowl victories, the highest marks of any division in the NFL. The Cowboys have had 5 Super Bowl wins, The Giants 4, the Redskins 3. The Eagles have 1 earned in 2018 at Super Bowl LII in Minneapolis. The NFC East is the only division under the NFL's current divisional structure in which all four teams have won at least one Super Bowl.
The Eagles play at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, the Cowboys at AT&T Stadium in Arlington Texas, the Giants at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, and the Redskins headquartered in Ashburn, Virginia play at FedExField in Landover Maryland..
Because the division's teams are in some of the United States' largest media markets (New York No. 1, Philadelphia, No. 4, Dallas-Fort Worth No. 5, and Washington No. 8), the NFC East receives a high amount of coverage from national sports media outlets. The NFC East can also be called the most valuable NFL Division. All four teams in the division are in the top ten of most valuable NFL franchises (Cowboys #1; Giants #3; Redskins #5; Eagles #10).
