"The problem lies with the defense, which Jayden Daniels should have no trouble picking apart from the pocket. This unit would obviously be much more dangerous had the Cowboys not traded arguably the most impactful defensive player in the NFL, Micah Parsons, for pennies on the dollar. As he likes to do, Cowboys owner/general manager Jerry Jones continues to defend this trade to the hilt."
"James Houston's 3.5 sacks are covered up by the fact that he is not a good enough run defender to be an every-down player. Donovan Ezeiruaku and Marshawn Kneeland have potential, but neither of them is being put in the best positions due to Matt Eberflus' defense. Laremy Tunsil and the rest of the Washington offensive line are likely licking their chops in preparation for this game."
Dallas features a high-performing offense with Dak Prescott playing at an MVP level and Brian Schottenheimer's running game producing effectively. Defensive struggles have become the team's primary issue after the Micah Parsons trade, leaving a weakened pass rush and limited sack production. Jerry Jones defends the trade by citing edge depth despite poor results. Kenny Clark and James Houston provide low sack totals while Houston's run defense limits his every-down value. Donovan Ezeiruaku and Marshawn Kneeland show upside but are constrained by Matt Eberflus' scheme. Washington's offensive line and Jayden Daniels can exploit the Cowboys' defensive deficiencies.
