Summary:
Both teams are clicking on all cylinders heading into this NFC East battle. Dallas has won nine straight games while Washington has only lost twice in that span. Washington’s offense has really come together solidifying themselves among the ten best in the NFL. The Redskins defense has been nothing special this year and the Cowboys dominant offensive line should be able to push them around. Dallas is the only team in the NFL that ranks top five in both scoring offense and scoring defense. Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott continues his march towards Eric Dickerson’s rookie rushing record. Dallas has gone (6-4) in their last ten head to head games with Washington. I think Washington can score with Dallas but their defense will ultimately allow too many points.
