Job security in the NFL is nonexistent for just about anyone. The turnover at every position from the front office to the field is proof enough of that.
Sometimes, however, the heat gets kicked up a few degrees, and for a pair of NFC East teams, things are getting real hot.
Both the Dallas Cowboys and the Philadelphia Eagles have undereachieved this season, and both look to be in trouble. Most notably, head coaches Jason Garrett and Andy Reid, could be looking for work in the near future. But a lot of that stems from the poor quarterback play they've gotten out of Tony Romo and Michael Vick respectively.
All four find themselves among this week's top NFL prop bets.

Michael Vick told reporters that he plans on getting “back to being the old Michael Vick.“
“I’ve got to play the game and leave it all out on the field and play aggressive and shoot it and run the ball when I feel there is a need to,” said Vick, via Geoff Mosher of CSN Philly. “If I get a seam, get a crack, take it. Just do what I’ve been born to do, blessed to do...

Vick, Romo, Sanchez a trio bland
There was a time not too long ago when having Mike Vick, Tony Romo or Mark Sanchez as your quarterback was considered living well in the NFL. Now it is like the sports version of marry, boff, kill.
If you had to choose one to build your franchise around, one to win a single game and death is not an option (neither is abstaining) whom do you go with?

2 quarterbacks, 2 increasingly desperate teams
Michael Vick and Drew Brees came into the NFL the same year.
Now, they're in the same predicament.
Both are the quarterbacks of increasingly desperate teams, the season teetering on the edge of collapse.
Brees has essentially become a one-man show for the New Orleans Saints (2-5), who are plagued by a historically leaky defense and anemic running game.
For Vick, the stakes...

Cowboys look to spoil Falcons' 7-0 record
IRVING, Texas -- The error-prone Cowboys haven't been good enough to bob over .500 and are 0-7 in their last seven Sunday night games. This week's Sunday night foe, Atlanta, has been so crisp through seven games that the Falcons have yet to lose. And yet Cowboys owner Jerry Jones is willing to "guarantee" a win for Dallas as long as you hear the "if"...

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Eagles quarterback Michael Vick told Sal Paolantonio that he’s “ready to make a playoff run. One play at a time. One game time.”
I’ll believe Vick is ready once he stops taking so many hits and turning the ball over. He should be able to take advantage of a horrible Saints defense this week.
