History Says The Dallas Cowboys Won’t Win A Playoff Game This Year
Redskins cornerback Josh Norman said Prescott isn’t like a normal rookie quarterback, and has to be treated accordingly.
“I love it”, Slay said. “I was very disappointed, but I was in awe of RG3”.
Maybe there is a psychic somewhere who could see this coming two months ago, but the Dallas Cowboys’ hot streak behind rookie quarterback Dak Prescott has been almost impossible for even the sharpest National Football League handicappers to predict.
“It’s hard to get corners that can create turnovers, so that was a major draw for us in my mind”, Gruden said. “If they haven’t, hopefully it’s a great experience for them”. You know, Zeke is a powerful runner. This sets the stage for what will most likely be a shootout between two of the best signal callers in the game this season. I just can’t pick against Dak Prescott anymore with the way he’s played week after week. “They’ve been getting to the second level, they’ve been knocking guys off the ball”.
Irvin is thinking from a different side of the brain, a side that goes against most everything sports is about but he has a point. The Cowboys selected him in the fourth round of the 2016 draft. Manning is capable of lighting up the scoreboard thanks to Odell Beckham Jr. and Sterling Shepard, but when Rashad Jennings leads the team with 340 rushing yards, that’s not a good sign.
The Cowboys magic number over Washington sits at four, and a win would knock it down to two with five games remaining.
Redskins’ quarterback Kirk Cousins does into the game in electric form, having shown just what he can do last week.
Despite being strong on the boundary of the defense, the interior of the Redskins defense can be taken advantage of. It could be a turning point for Snyder’s long-reign of ineptitude (and racism, can’t forget that). The key today will be to dominate time of possession and keep Prescott and Elliott on the sideline as much as possible. Washington has an opportunity to close that gap to 1 and get redemption from the home loss they suffered at the hands of the Cowboys back in week 2.
FILE – In this September 11, 2016, file photo, Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (21) leaps into the end zone after getting past New York Giants cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie (41) and Nat Berhe (29) for his first career touchdown in the second half of an NFL football game, in Arlington, Texas. In Washington’s winning streak, Griffin had 12 touchdowns and two interceptions, while Morris averaged 117.1 yards per game on the ground with eight touchdowns. That’s not by chance. “We just go out there and enjoy it”. It’s definitely easier when you’re winning than when you’re not winning and that can add a whole other aspect to it. “They know what they’re capable of and they’re doing it”. They can move that ball anytime they want to, they can throw it and run it.
Prescott was 17 of 24 for a season-low 195 yards and one touchdown, a toe-tapper to Terrance Williams.
“Yeah, think about it”, Elliott said Tuesday, not backing down from his claim. “And I think he’s got a tremendous competitive spirit”. If I had told you on opening weekend that Matt Jones would be a total non-factor by mid-season, you probably would have been thinking the Redskins were headed for a losing year. Those plays are really difference-makers as far as the game’s concerned. The Washington Redskins and the Dallas Cowboys are in third and first place, respectively, in the NFC East, and Thursday’s matchup could go a long way in deciding who’ll be the division champion at seasons end. I want a searching of ourselves one time before the playoffs. We thought we had the quarterback of the future. QB Sam Bradford is an accurate thrower, but he’s prone to mistakes when he’s under pressure from the pass rush. He was throwing great passes to Santana, back shoulder fades to end the half.
The running back position is not up for debate. A loss isn’t going to help him focus any more. “One day of joy”. Luke Bryan was visibly excited to be able to play catch with the star quarterback footballer, however Blake Shelton didn’t have much faith in his co-host’s athletic skills.
