For Philadelphia, they are within a game of the NFC East lead, but they will need some help and must win their final two games. A loss Sunday doesn't completely destroy their hopes but the chances are extremely slim. Seattle and Dallas need to lose.
In the event of a tie in the NFC East, Dallas gets the nod due to their sweep of the Eagles this season.
The Eagles can still win the NFC East if they win their remaining two games and the Cowboys lose both of theirs.
Should the Eagles and Seahawks finish with the same record, the Seahawks would win that tie-breaker on the strength of a better conference record.
If the Eagles win their remaining two games and the Seahakws lose theirs, the Eagles would be in.
