The Dallas Cowboys and Washington Football Team clash in week 16 NFL Sunday Night Football action from AT&T Stadium in Arlington.
The Washington Football Team will look to bounce back from a 27-17 loss at the hands of the Philadelphia Eagles last time out. Taylor Heinicke has thrown for 2,931 yards, 19 touchdowns and 12 interceptions on 66.5% passing while Antonio Gibson has 862 rushing yards and 6 scores. Terry McLaurin has 859 receiving yards with 5 touchdowns and a team-high 63 catches while J.D. McKissic and Adam Humphries each have 300+ receiving yards as well this season. On defense, Cole Holcomb leads the WFT with 120 total tackles while Jonathan Allen has a team-high 8.5 sacks this season.
The Dallas Cowboys will try to build on a 21-6 win over the Giants in their last matchup. Dak Prescott’s thrown for 3,598 yards, 25 touchdowns and 10 picks on 68.5% passing while Ezekiel Elliott has 862 rushing yards with 9 TDs and Tony Pollard has 676 rushing yards as well this season. CeeDee Lamb has a team-high 70 receptions for 940 yards and 6 scores while Amari Cooper and Dalton Schultz each have 650+ receiving yards as well. On defense, Jayron Kearse leads the Cowboys with 94 total takcles while Trevon Diggs has 10 interceptions and Micah Parsons has a team-high 12 sacks this season.
Washington is 0-3-1 ATS in their last 4 division games and 8-20-1 ATS in their last 29 games following a loss while the under is 7-2 in their last 9 games overall. Dallas is 11-1 ATS in their last 12 games against the NFC and 6-2 ATS in their last 8 home games while the under is 7-1 in their last 8 games overall.
IT’ll be interesting to see who clears health protocols for this game, but until they do, I have to roll with Dallas here. We saw the effect those losses haf for Washington against Philly and I think against a Dallas team that’s chasing the top spot in the NFC, I think it’s just a bad spot for Washington to have to deal with. Give me the Cowboys here.
