Overview
- The Cowboys and Commanders meet in Week 2 with both clubs 0-1 after Washington’s 24-22 loss to Philadelphia on Sunday, Sept. 13.
- Washington’s offense showed late promise but uneven play, as Jayden Daniels returned to start and finished 18-of-34 for 164 yards, two TDs and 31 rushing yards.
- The Commanders ran for 132 yards on 32 attempts in Week 1, led by Jacory Croskey-Merritt’s 63 yards and a touchdown, signaling a more balanced attack.
- Washington’s defense produced three sacks from Frankie Luvu, Odafe Oweh and rookie Sonny Styles, but multiple players are listed questionable and Deatrich Wise Jr. remains on reserve/PUP.
- Betting markets have moved to Cowboys -4.5 with a roughly 50–51 point total, reflecting Dallas’s home advantage and concerns about Washington’s depth and offensive consistency.
