You’ve got to win to be relevant, so we didn’t win enough. The Dallas secondary was burned all game, and they could have played worse if the Redskins hadn’t started running the ball.
“I’m taken aback by the fact that we’re sitting here with four wins after this year”, Cowboys owner & general manager Jerry Jones said. Cousins finished out his regular season playing only the first half and completing 12 of 15 passes for 176 yards and 3 more passing touchdowns.
After the biggest decrease in wins from one season to the next in franchise history, Dallas now has a. 500 record overall (152-152) in regular-season games since the start of 1997 – a break-even stretch spanning 19 seasons. A serious problem finding the end zone and four turnovers meant just 23 points in a game that meant nothing for either team.
The Cowboys didn’t just lose Tony Romo, but they’ve also shut down Dez Bryant for the season with a foot injury. Behind his increasingly dependable offensive line, which included left tackle Ty Nsekhe in place of inactive Trent Williams (who was getting some much needed time off) he became the first Redskins quarterback ever to score three touchdowns in the first quarter. “He has a chance to be a really good one”. The Redskins are on a three-game winning streak, their longest streak since they won seven in a row to finish the 2012 season.
“‘His test came back OK, so that’s good news on him”, Gruden said.
“Regardless of your winning streak or losing streak, come Saturday or Sunday next week, we’re going to have to come together and play a great football game against a quality team”, Gruden said.
Jordan Reed and DeSean Jackson have played incredibly well this season when healthy. The Cowboys later trailed only 27-14 early in the fourth quarter, but McCoy then put the game out of reach with a 71-yard touchdown pass, extending Washington’s lead to 34-14.
Here are running backs who could potentially land on the Cowboys roster in late April when the NFL Draft arrives, looking at one running back for each round as per projections from CBS Sports. “I think you’ve seen the fruits of that from the games following that game”. RB Darren McFadden needs 3 yards rushing for second career 1,000-yard season. “In addition to that, we felt like it was important to go into the playoffs with momentum and rhythm”.
