Washington Commanders vs. Dallas Cowboys Prediction
I’m leaning towards the over here. Jayden Daniels off of a loss with Washington has been a solid bet and against a Cowboys defense that’s been mighty susceptible this season, I could see the Commanders scoring at will here. On the other side, Dallas has had no problems racking up points in their own right, and I think that the total is this high for a reason. Give me the over in this one.
