Dallas Cowboys vs Washington Redskins Game Recap
Lead by their rookie QB Dak Prescott, Cowboys did just enough to secure the win. It was a tense game between long-lasting NFC East rivals. They were interchanging the lead among themselves, but after Barry Church’s interception, the tide of the game went into Cowboys direction. Prescott lead Cowboys drive into Washington’s red zone and put the ball into Alfred Morris’s hands who then scored a touchdown. An interesting fact is that Morris was playing for the Redskins, and spent most of the pregame time shaking hands and talking to the people he get to know while playing for Washington. Earlier in the game things were going in Redskins direction. After the Ezekiel Elliott’s fumble, it didn’t look like the Cowboys will make a comeback, but eventually, they did.
The last attempt of the game was Kirk Cousin’s ‘Hail Mary’ across the field, but he failed to hit the receiver.
