The Philadelphia Eagles are still well on their way to a playoff birth even after losing to the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. 

However, they may no longer have control over the No. 1 seed in the NFC… unless they beat the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday night. 

Let's take a look at the updated NFC playoff picture after wrapping up Week 13 below: 

The Birds are currently one game up on the Cowboys for the NFC East lead (with the head-to-head tiebreaker) and also hold a one-game lead over the Niners for the No. 1 seed in the NFC conference.

Eagles Remaining 2023-24 NFL Schedule

Sure, the Eagles still control their destiny, but they'll need to get back on the winning track if they plan on securing the top seed and having a bye week before the playoffs. 

Here's who they have to look forward to playing down the final stretch:

Week 14 at Dallas Cowboys
Week 15 at Seattle Seahawks
Week 16 vs. New York Giants
Week 17 vs. Arizona Cardinals
Week 18 at New York Giants

If the Eagles lose to Dallas in Week 14, then the Cowboys will switch places with Philly and take back the lead in the NFC East. 

For now, let's hope the Eagles can at least fix their red zone woes and sweep the Cowboys on the road.
