Redskins Coming off Loss

The Washington Redskins offense scored two late touchdowns to get to 24, but their defense was poor once again in a 10 point loss in Philadelphia.

On the season, Washington is allowing 24.5 points per game, which is 25th out of 32 NFL teams.

Kirk Cousins continues to sling the football all over the field. The Redskins are the 6th best passing team in the league with over 250 yards per game. Jordan Reed had a big game as he returned to the lineup for Washington with two touchdown receptions. Chris Thompson still leads the team in both rushing yards and receiving yards thus far in 2017.

Cowboys Getting Healthy

The big news for the Dallas Cowboys is they are getting healthy. Not only are they getting healthy, but now they are getting Ezekiel Elliott. The running back had three touchdowns in the massive win over San Francisco last week. he has 4 rushing touchdowns and 540 yards on the ground this season. The Cowboys are the 2nd best rushing team in the league with 147 yards per game.

The Dallas defense is something that will need to carry them in big games. The Cowboys are allowing more than 23 points per game. The Cowboys have three losses this season. In those three losses, Dallas allowed 112 points. In the three wins for the Cowboys, they have allowed just 30. The Cowboys will host the Kansas City Chiefs, and go on the road to Atlanta in their next two games.

Cowboys Slide By Washington

Dak Prescott and Zeke Elliott have not seemed to hit the second year struggle in the NFL. That’s a good sign for Jason Garrett and the Cowboys. Look for the Cowboys to use their strength on offense and shove the football right down the Washington Redskins throat in this game. On the defensive side, the Cowboys have the weapons to slow and defend Kirk Cousins.

The Dallas Cowboys are the bet to make here. They are the better team, and the deeper team.  The Dallas Cowboys -2.5 over the Washington Redskins is the bet to make in this game.
