It’s Dallas week. That doesn’t have quite the same ring as it once did, but it’s still an important game on Washington’s schedule. Coming off an ugly 24-8 home loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, the Commanders can’t afford a third consecutive loss Sunday in Dallas.
One key for Washington is some good injury luck. In their first practice of the week, the Commanders were without two starters on the offensive line. Left tackle Charles Leno [shoulder] and center Wes Schweitzer [concussion] missed practice. For a unit that struggled badly last week, the Commanders can’t afford to be without Leno or Schweitzer against the Cowboys, who lead the NFL in sacks.
