"The winner will move into sole possession of second place behind the defending division champion Philadelphia Eagles, a crucial position as the season nears its midpoint. The Cowboys enter the game at 3-3, struggling to find consistency on both sides of the ball. Their defense, once considered elite, has been gashed all season by mobile quarterbacks and explosive plays. Offensively, Dak Prescott and company have been brilliant, but stalled in critical moments last week at Carolina."
"Jalen Hurts in Philadelphia and Justin Fields in Chicago both burned Dallas with timely scrambles and designed runs that extended drives and deflated the defense. Now, they face perhaps their biggest test yet: the speedy and shifty Jayden Daniels. Daniels' speed and improvisational ability make him one of the most dangerous dual-threat quarterbacks in the NFL. He's already rushed for over 176 yards this season in just 4 games, often turning broken plays into highlight runs."
The NFC East race tightens as the Cowboys and Commanders battle for sole possession of second behind the Eagles. Dallas enters 3-3 with inconsistent play, a defense that has been gashed by mobile quarterbacks and explosive plays, and an offense that has produced brilliance yet stalled in critical moments. Washington sits 3-3 under Dan Quinn after a narrow loss to the Bears. Matchups will decide the game, notably Dallas' linebackers needing disciplined containment against Jayden Daniels' dual-threat mobility, because broken contain or over-pursuit could allow him to extend drives and create big plays.
