# NFC East winless streak Sports · Heat 1.8 / 10 · 8 shows · 42m airtime On October 19, 2026, the NFC East became the first division in NFL history to go winless in consecutive weeks in which all its teams played. Washington enters its bye at 1-4-1, and the discussion has turned to Dan Quinn's job security, with a Netflix poll placing him at 41 percent to be the first coach fired, ahead of Jim Harbaugh at 32 percent. Assistant head coach Anthony Lynn has been floated as a candidate. Nothing has been decided, and the team has not commented on Quinn's status.

Notes the NFC East's historic two-week winless stretch and pivots to Dan Quinn's job security, floating Anthony Lynn as an in-house head-coaching option.
