Dallas @ Washington
Team Totals: Commanders 28, Cowboys 17.5
Losers of five straight and both of Cooper Rush’s starts, the Cowboys could turn to Trey Lance at any time, rendering Rush a two-QB-league consideration only, even after he threw for 354 yards (on 55 attempts) in Week 11’s loss. Rush also took five sacks versus Houston, while starting OGs Tyler Smith (ankle/knee) and Zack Martin (shoulder/ankle) haven’t been practicing. Washington’s D/ST is very playable here. … Rico Dowdle remained Dallas’ Week 11 lead back but ran in place, managing 34 scoreless yards on 12 touches against the Texans. Ezekiel Elliott was mostly a designated pass protector. This is a tasty on-paper spot for Dowdle; Washington has been shredded for 5.1 yards per carry and 160.5 total yards per game by running backs. I worry about game script and the health of Dallas’ interior offensive line, but Dowdle is at least RB2/flex playable in a week heavy on byes.
