The Cowboys will be doing some scoreboard-watching during this one. They have an advantage here as the Redskins' secondary has struggled all season. Washington also will be without rookie QB Dwayne Haskins (ankle). Look for Dallas' effort to be similar to the one it showed against the Los Angeles Rams two weeks ago.

The lookahead line here was Cowboys -7.5, and the Cowboys just lost as favorites with a quarterback that doesn't seem healthy. So why did this line inflate this much? It isn't because of the Washington QB injury, because Case Keenum isn't a downgrade from Dwayne Haskins. It isn't because Washington needs to lose to lock in the No. 2 pick; what does that matter to a coach and QB who won't be there next year? Bill Callahan has overachieved with his team down the stretch, while the Cowboys continue to underachieve. We're getting great value fading the Cowboys here.
