So you're saying there's a chance ! (for the Cowboys 😂) Via @PierreVLeBrun on X

What happened: San Francisco faces Washington on Monday night in Week 6. A Commanders loss leaves every NFC East team without a win across two straight weeks.

Why it matters: No division has gone winless in consecutive weeks before. Dallas Cowboys sit 2-3 after allowing 419 yards against Tampa Bay in Week 5.

By the numbers: San Francisco 5-0 ahead of Nov. 10 trade deadline; Dallas 2-3 after allowing 24 points to Tampa Bay in Week 5.

What to watch: Monday night's final decides whether the mark becomes official. The standings reset for Week 7 afterward.
