The Dallas Cowboys defeated the Washington Football Team 27-20 in a Week 14 NFC East showdown. While the score indicates a competitive, back-and-forth game, this contest was anything but that as the Cowboys led at halftime, 24-0.
Washington quietly got back into the game behind the strength of its defense. The WFT held the Cowboys to three second-half points, which came on a turnover by Washington deep in its own territory.
Washington’s offense scored two second-half touchdowns, while linebacker Cole Holcomb returned an interception for a touchdown. Suddenly, Washington was within one possession.
Ultimately, Washington’s rally fell short in the end, and its four-game winning streak is no more.
It was another rough game on the injury front for Washington. Terry McLaurin, Taylor Heinicke, Charles Leno and Tyler Larsen were among the new injuries Sunday. Leno returned, while the others did not.
Here are the studs and duds from Washington’s Week 14 loss to the Cowboys.
