Dallas Cowboys: Ezekiel Elliott, bold predictions for Week 7 vs. Redskins

1 of 4

A rivalry will be renewed this weekend as the Dallas Cowboys face the Washington Redskins with first place in the NFC East on the line.

The Dallas Cowboys are coming off their biggest win of the 2018 season when they won by 33 points over the Jacksonville Jaguars, as that large of a victory was a bit of a surprise. The Cowboys used and perfected a game plan that worked well for their offense and will look to do the same this Sunday against the Washington Redskins.

This Week 7 game is big for the standings of the NFC East, where the Cowboys are 3-3 overall and the Redskins are 3-2. The issue for the Cowboys is all three of their wins have come at AT&T Stadium, and this game is on the road for “America’s Team” where the Redskins are 2-1 on their home field.

The biggest question for the Week 7 game involving the Cowboys is which team will show up? Will it be the Cowboys team we’ve seen a lot of this season that has underperformed and underproduced, or will it be the Cowboys team that took charge on both sides of the ball and on special teams, leading to a 40-7 win over an opponent that was supposed to have one of the top defenses in the NFL?

Also with this upcoming game — which airs at 4:25 p.m. on FOX — is the fact the Cowboys need to show consistency within their offense because one game doesn’t make or break a team, and a consistent offense hasn’t been the calling card of the Cowboys as of late. In what is a three-team race for the NFC East as the season moves along (the Philadelphia Eagles are also 3-3), a win for the Cowboys would be huge as they’ve yet to win back-to-back games this season.
