Holding penalty on Dallas negates a 46-yard gain for Michael Gallup, who broke free from Kendall Fuller deep. Dallas goes nowhere on 3rd and long. Punt from the shadow of its end zone. Washington to start at its 41. Would be a good time to start doing something on offense.

Micah Parsons has 9.5 sacks in the last six games, which ties Leslie O'Neal (1986) for the most sacks by a rookie in a six-game span.

this play feels really indicative of the Cowboys' problems. Dalton Schultz definitely had a window, and I assume Dak saw him. Made the decision to throw too late. I really don't think it's some big problem that needs fixing, more so than some tweaks. Just hasn't happened yet. twitter.com/NFL_DovKleiman…

No Tony Pollard for the #Cowboys is a huge deal. He's been their best running back (certainly their most dynamic) in recent weeks. Expect a ton of Dak Prescott dropping back and looking for his trio of star WRs today.

With that first down, Ezekiel Elliott surpassed 1,000 scrimmage yards this season. This is Elliott's sixth consecutive season with 1,000 scrimmage yards, good for fourth in franchise history. Elliott also leads all players in scrimmage yards since 2016.

It's 27-8 thanks to Greg Zuerlein's 29-yard FG. Tyron Smith is nicked up, Zeke Elliott might be done for the day, he's fine, just time to see Corey Clement. The offense has just been okay and Micah Parsons is fantastic.

A day after #Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy guaranteed victory, Washington coach Ron Rivera delivered a fiery speech to his own team, warning them of psychological tactics and imploring them to focus only on what matters. My story: nfl.com/news/ron-river…

#Cowboys RB Tony Pollard, who didn't practice all week but is listed as questionable because of a torn plantar fascia, does have a chance to play, sources say. There isn't a lot of optimism for it, but he's been fighting for it. DAL will wait until kickoff to decide for sure.

Looked potentially scary for Zack Martin, but he just popped up and jogged to the sideline. Encouraging sign.

Ten Cowboys defensive linemen are in uniform today at Washington: DeMarcus Lawrence, Randy Gregory, Neville Gallimore, Carlos Watkins, Osa Odighizuwa, Tarell Basham, Dorance Armstrong, Trysten Hill, Chauncey Golston and Quinton Bohanna. A loaded deck.

La'el Collins on the sideline scrap: It wasn't really the late hit for me. I felt it was more so, I felt like he was rolling towards Dak's leg. It was uncalled for. I'm just here to protect my quarterback at all costs, and that's the bottom line."

Amari Cooper playing pretty good today. Runs a drag and gets 20 yards on this last play.

Randy Gregory's sack/fumble stands. Jayron Kearse recovers. Cowboys defense bailing out the Cowboys offense in a major way.

Mike McCarthy guarantees a Dallas win, Jerry Jones goes on DC radio and raves about strong Cowboys fan base in WFT's city, Cowboys bring their own benches... and Washington (in a playoff hunt) comes out and gets punked 24-0 in the first half after gaining just 29 yards.

Cowboys RT La'el Collins has been ejected from game. Dallas without both starting offensive tackles (LT Tyron Smith, left ankle). Terence Steele enters at RT. Ty Neskhe already in at left.

Fumble. Cowboys ball. Offense unable to close out Washington, going three-and-out. Defense may just have. Nickel CB Jourdan Lewis forced and recovered fumble.

If you need help running the football, put seven offensive linemen on the field at the same time. Cowboys started this possession with an extra OT and Connor Williams at fullback

We had Kellen Moore as a hot head coaching candidate early in the season. That might still happen but let's not forget what Dan Quinn and members of that defensive staff have done. George Edwards should get some interviews, too.

During the week, Cowboys running back Tony Pollard broke the news of his torn plantar fascia but continued to push towards playing against the Washington Football team. The explosive back is inactive for the matchup and Ezekiel Elliott will be forced into more of a workhorse role with JaQuan Hardy and Corey Clement spelling the sixth-year running back.

On the contrary, Dallas welcomes back defensive end Randy Gregory and defensive tackle Neville Gallimore. This marks the first game of the season with Gregory, Gallimore, Demarcus Lawrence and Micah Parsons all active. The Cowboys have six inactives for the contest, including four rookies

Anthony Brown just dropped an interception at about midfield. Heincke is really struggling. 2/8, 19 yards. Getting hit, holding the ball. Washington needs to make some adjustments and fast.

Ty Nsekhe remains at LT. No announcement made on Tyron Smith's injury yet. Looked like left knee.
