Cousins, starters expected to play for Redskins at Cowboys
Washington Redskins’ Keenan Robinson (52) and Mason Foster, rear, combine to stop Dallas Cowboys’ Jason Witten (82) as Witten fights for extra yardage after making a catch in the first half of an NFL football game, Sunday, Jan. 3, 2016, in Arlington, Texas.
With 176 yards on 12-of-15 passing, Cousins set the Redskins’ all-time mark for passing yards in a single season with 4,166 (Jay Schroeder previously held it). “All our guys are starting”, Gruden said. They will come into the postseason with the ultimate home-run threat in DeSean Jackson. And they handled the substitution pattern. Hall and Williams both said they would be ready to play against the Cowboys if needed.
“9-7 sounds a lot better than 8-8”, Cousins said. “In addition to that, we felt like it was important to go into the playoffs with momentum and rhythm”. He added another touchdown to the tally with some help from Pierre Garcon who hauled in the ball on a ridiculous catch for the touchdown. The stunning reversal for last year’s 12-4 division champion in a season mostly without quarterback Tony Romo put the Cowboys back at.
Cousins threw for three touchdowns before leaving late in the first half of a playoff tuneup, and the Redskins finished the regular season with a 34-23 victory over the Cowboys on Sunday. “I’d rather do that than lose a couple of big games”.
“I would love to repay that debt with a million sacks and a ton of wins. [Records] mean something to the entire offense – the entire team, quite frankly”. It just so happens [we’re] in a position [where] we’re in and where we’re safe, and we know we’ve got a home playoff game. Two of those touchdowns went to tight end Jordan Reed who went for 129 yards against the Eagles.

Alfred Morris hasn’t run the same this season, a function of inconsistent blocking but also perhaps a body that is worn down after entering the season with 876 carries in his first three seasons.
Reports are saying that Jay Gruden will start Kirk Cousins and his key players, but that he will likely sit a lot of his key players before too long.
Before Sunday’s game, McCoy took limited reps in practice and approached playing the Cowboys as a preseason game, a chance to get in quality snaps while trying to establish a rapport with a patchwork of offensive weapons. He has 20 passing TDs with three interceptions for 115.8 passer rating, and four rushing TDs in past nine games…. Rookie linebacker Preston Smith registered his eighth sack of the season, including his fifth in the last three games.
Washington now waits to see if it will host the Seattle Seahawks or Minnesota Vikings in the first round of the playoffs.
Washington went 7-25 in the two seasons between its most recent division titles, with consecutive last-place finishes in 2013 and 2014.
For as many issues as Hardy created early on, he has shown strides of getting his life back together in the final weeks of the season.
