Do you think the NFC East is the strongest division in the NFL?
Giants(10-6), Cowboys(13-2), Eagles(7-8), Redskins(8-7)
I dont see a bad team here and this season(most likely) and last season the NFC East had 3 teams in the playoffs.

Except for a year here and there, the NFC East has been the dominant conference ever since the NFL merger in @1970.

Historically, they are without a doubt. Over 15 Superbowl appearances, and 10 Superbowl wins, they have the most playoff appearances and wins in the NFL, and everybody in the division is usually fighting for a playoff spot near the end, and if they're not it only takes them a year or two to get back in the hunt.
The problem is that they beat each other up so much that nobody comes out the clear winner like the Pats in the AFC North.
As of right now I'd say the AFC South has the overall better teams, but the NFC East would certainly put up a fight.
Any team in the NFC East, if placed within any other division in the NFL, save possible the AFC South, would most likely make the playoffs consistently as at LEAST a wild-card, if not the division champions.

AFC South is just as strong. Couple playoff teams in each with a 3rd possible. I personally think the AFC South is actually stronger because the Colts and Jags could easily beat everyone in the NFC East minus Dallas maybe. Dallas is very good, but the Colts are better. NE, Indy, and Dallas are the top 3 teams no doubt. Packers and Jags a close 4th and 5th.

top to bottom the nfc east is the best division in football. No one cna hold a candle to them. They have 2 teams garaunteed in the playoffs and a third that is possible, if not likely. This is after beating each other six games a year. All four of those teams usually are in the playoff hunt every year and are seldom "Playing for draft picks"

They are very good don't get me wrong but they are in the NFC. I think the strongest division is in the AFC probably the AFC south. Indy is better then Dallas. The Jaguars are better than the giants. The Titans are better Philly and the Texans are probably around equal with Washington
