Dominant Cowboys Defense:
Dallas features one of the league's most dominant defenses, led by Micah Parsons. They excel at pressuring the quarterback and forcing turnovers, which disrupts opposing offenses and often keeps scores low.
The Commanders' offensive line has struggled, making Sam Howell likely to face constant pressure, limiting Washington's ability to sustain drives.
Commanders’ Defensive Capabilities:
Despite some inconsistency, Washington’s defense can hold its own, particularly against the run. They’ll focus on containing the Cowboys' offense and limiting explosive plays.
Dallas’ Conservative Offensive Approach:
The Cowboys often rely on a balanced game plan that involves leaning on their defense and special teams to control the game. Their offense isn’t designed to engage in high-scoring shootouts, especially when they’re playing from a position of strength.
Division Rivalry Dynamics:
NFC East matchups are historically hard-fought and defensive-minded. Familiarity between these two teams often leads to fewer scoring opportunities.
Recent Trends:
Cowboys games frequently hit the under due to their elite defense dictating the tempo.
The Commanders have struggled to score consistently against top-tier defenses, further supporting the likelihood of a low total.
