Dallas Cowboys vs Washington Redskins Sunday Night Football

Dallas Cowboys vs Washington Redskins Sunday Night Football: The Cowboys (5-4) are coming off a bye week. In their last game they lost to the N.Y. Giants 35-14 on the road. Returning to the lineup this week is QB Tony Romo. The lack of offense in his absence has forced the defense to work overtime, resulting in 30 or more points allowed in 3 of Dallas’ last 4 games. This season on 09/28/08 Washington went to Dallas and won 26-24. In the game Romo was 28-of-47 for 300 yards with three touchdowns, but wasn't able to move Dallas as well as the stats suggest. Two of his best drives came in 2-minute drills, with the second – an eight-play, 82-yard march that ended with an 11-yard touchdown to Miles Austin – giving the Cowboys a chance for a stirring rally. The sports odds posted by the oddsmakers at Sbgglobal.com currently list Dallas Cowboys -1 favorites to Washington Redskins heading into this matchup.

Active Image"I think the loss to Washington made a lot of people raise a lot of eyebrows," Cowboys wide receiver Terrell Owens said. "I think those two games alone kind of let everybody in this locker room know you got to have sort of a self check like, 'OK, we're probably not as good as we think we are, or probably not as good as hyped."'

The Redskins (6-3) are also off a bye week. They are also coming off a loss to Pittsburgh 23-6 on Monday Night Football. QB Jason Campbell was 24/43 206 yards and 2 INT's. The Redskins came close to scoring a touchdown only once – when Campbell threw incomplete on fourth-and-goal at the 1 in the fourth quarter. Washington has out-gained their opponents 5.6 yards per play to 4.8 yppl this season. Cowboy fans whine that Romo's injury caused this downturn, or that the Skins will get killed cus he is back. The Skins did beat them in Dallas when they were completely healthy, and the score made it seem closer than it was (Cowboys have no run D). The Skins can win this even without CP, and then Jerry Jones and T.O. together, is this going to be the most epic breakdown in the history of mankind? The online sports betting odds at Sbgglobal.com has the OVER/UNDER in this Dallas Cowboys vs Washington Redskins game is set at 43 points.

"I've done a lot of studying, and a lot of thinking about the game and trying to gain an understanding of what it is we may need to do a little bit differently or what we may need to continue to do or do better," said Romo, who completed 28 of 47 passes for 300 yards, three touchdowns and one interception against the Redskins in Week 4. "I feel very confident and excited going forward about things that we may have changed around, improved upon. 

Sunday Night Football: Romo does nothing to help that terrible defense the Cowboys have.  He won't shut down Santana Moss or stop the run.  Cowboys are play with no discipline at all.  The Cowboys though are 11-1 ATS record in games off a double-digit loss when facing a division foe off a loss. Romo's agility hides the fact that the Dallas O-line isn't very good. The last three weeks has shown that. This game is going to be a close one. If Portis is out, then all bets are off……if he's healthy…bye bye Dallas for the Playoffs. Cowboys are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 meetings in Washington. Underdog is 20-6 ATS in their last 26 meetings. Cowboys are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 meetings.
