"The Dallas Cowboys enter today's matchup against the Washington Commanders sitting at a crossroads in their 2025 season. With a 2-3-1 record, the Cowboys are walking the tightrope between contention and collapse. A victory would lift them into second place in the NFC East with a 3-3-1 record, right behind the defending champion Philadelphia Eagles. A loss, however, would drop them to 2-4-1 and put them squarely on the fringe of the playoff picture."
"The season is still relatively young, but time is running short with one of the toughest remaining schedules in the league. Losing to a Washington team missing its top two offensive weapons could spell disaster. The outcome of this game could set the tone for the rest of the year, defining whether Dallas pushes forward as a contender or begins looking toward 2026."
"If the Cowboys manage to win this game (something they should do given Washington's decimated offense) it could serve as a turning point. The Commanders will be without their top two receivers, which should allow the Dallas defense to regain some confidence after a string of poor performances. A win would place the Cowboys back into the thick of the NFC playoff race and give the front office justification to make meaningful moves before the trade deadline."
The Cowboys enter the game at 2-3-1, with a victory moving them to 3-3-1 and second in the NFC East, or a loss dropping them to 2-4-1 and jeopardizing playoff hopes. The Commanders will be without their top two receivers, easing pressure on Dallas' struggling defense. A win would restore confidence and justify front-office moves ahead of the trade deadline. Primary roster needs include linebacker, EDGE and cornerback help. Rookie DeMarvion Overshown is expected to return soon to boost the linebacker unit, and third-round rookie Shavon Revel is nearing his debut for added secondary depth. A veteran pass rusher trade is realistic to offset Micah Parsons' absence.
