Cowboys-Redskins on Thanksgiving: Dallas seeks 10th straight

On the eve of the Washington Redskins and Dallas Cowboys “Thanksgiving Day” NFC East showdown, statistically, the teams excel in different categories.

Since then, Dallas has won eight more games in a row to improve their overall record to 9-1. Dallas rookie quarterback DAK PRESCOTT is the only rookie in National Football League history to pass for at least 300 yards and multiple touchdowns with no interceptions in back-to-back games.

“I’m excited about it”, Prescott said. But I love ball and I love these games.

He’s looking forward to showing Washington his improvement. While Elliott only ran for 83 yards and gave up two fumbles against the Redskins, his statistics reflect that he has grown immensely into his role as the starting running back for the Cowboys.

Cole Beasley has emerged as a strong threat in the passing game for Dallas and a healthy Dez Bryant is a risky weapon, but it’s hard to go against the Redskins’ receiving corps. He’s been everything we want so far and he’s going to continue to be. There is nearly certainly at least one loss lurking in the last six contests, and expect closer scores in majority than we have seen in some of the previous wins.

“I remember we were playing pretty well”, Elliott said.

A huge audience already saw Dallas capture a thrilling comeback victory in Pittsburgh, though for some casual fans this might be an introduction to Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott, the two rookies vaulting this team into title contention. The Minnesota Vikings’ early afternoon battle against the Detroit Lions carries an average price of $153.

“His coach in college said he’s the best player he’s ever had with the ball not in his hands”, coach Jason Garrett said.

“The biggest thing is you worry about the health of your football team”, said Gruden. When it comes to other team’s territory within just a few yards of scoring, it becomes a game of inches, and that is why the running game is crucial. Fortunately for Philly, they’ll all play their remaining divisional games in the friendly confines of Lincoln Financial Field. “You get kind of a feel for how the offensive line plays a little more”. “He just gets better and better”. It doesn’t diminish the challenge.

The Cowboys are good.

At Indianapolis, the host Colts and Pittsburgh enter 5-5. That would be one way to dash the dreams of one of their rivals; which would be like the gravy on top of their 10 game winning streak. Dallas even leads the NFC East going 9-1 on the season. Only one player this season has done that in less than five days. Former Packers backup Scott Tolzien will get the start for Indianapolis.

Andrew Luck remains in the NFL’s concussion protocol after suffering one at some point during the game on Sunday against the Titans. “It’s something we’ve got to focus on, something you’re aware of”.
