Andy Dalton Vs. Alex Smith.
That title just sounds like and under doesn't it?
I'm not buying it one bit. These teams can both score and the Cowboys with Dalton can still manage to put points on the board. We saws it last week as Dallas put up a total of 31 points with Dalton coming back from injury on the road mind you. Dallas has a ton of guys on offense and that alone makes it so much easier against a decent defense to move the chains. Dalton threw the ball for 203 yards in his first game back and 3 TD's. Dallas also ran the crap out of the ball with Zeke as he ground up 100+ on the ground by himself.
We know the Dallas defense stinks and that's not really going to change much. I do think the Dallas rush defense is improved with Smith and Vander Esch healthy now and playing together, but the pass defense is just as bad as it's been all season.Thielen last week went bonkers on Dallas as he had 8 catches for 123 yards and 2 TD's. Cousins played on of his best games of the season. Alex Smith has shown he can throw the ball and I highly doubt the Cowboys pass defense can stack up to the talent the Skins have on offense. Washington is very fast with 3 WR's 1 TE and 2 RB's in Gibson and McKissic that rotate all game long. No way Dallas keeps up with this offense today.
This game will be a shootout. Not sure who wins as both teams will be playing well, but I see a 33-31 type of finish.
