The NFC summit is the meeting on Sunday afternoon of week 16 of the NFL season. The Philadelphia Eagles, Detroit Lions and Minnesota Vikings are all 12-2 and in contention for No. 1 seed with the playoffs fast approaching. The Lions are in the driver’s seat right now, controlling their own destiny, but any mistake means the Eagles would have a chance at that all-important first-round bye. Philly will be tested Sunday in Washington against a 9-5 Commanders team that is trying to develop a rhythm down the stretch. They’ve won their last two games, but looked shaky in a one-point win over the Saints last week. The Eagles clinch the NFC East division title with a win, while the Commanders clinch a playoff spot with a win Sunday and losses to the Falcons and Rams or Falcons and Seahawks.
The Lions can maintain first place in the NFC with a win against the Bears in the first window, while Minnesota faces Seattle in the final window.
