Prediction:
With the way quarterback Jason Campbell has looked more and more comfortable in Jim Zorn’s West Coast Offense, the Redskins might be able to keep things close this weekend in Dallas. But with defensive end Jason Taylor expected to miss the game, Washington could have issues generating a pass rush, which would give Cowboys’ quarterback Tony Romo a good opportunity to pick the Skins’ secondary apart. In the end, Dallas has too many weapons for Washington to contend with. We predict the Cowboys over the Redskins 34-23.
