The Dallas Cowboys clinched the NFC East yesterday before they even took the field for last night’s home game against Washington. Then they went out and absolutely destroyed their division rival, 56-14, in a game that was basically over shortly after it started.
Dak Prescott had a big night with four touchdown passes but the Cowboys’ defense also put on a show once again and continues to be one of the best defenses in football.
That defense put some points on the board late in the first quarter when DeMarcus Lawrence picked off a Taylor Heinicke pass and returned it 40 yards down the sideline for a touchdown.
Cowboys defensive coordinator Dan Quinn had a tremendous reaction to the TD:
