Kirk Cousins said this is a big game because they know Dallas needs a win to save their season and they want to win this last home game for London Fletcher. Fletcher said he can't end his career with a loss to Dallas and the way they lost to Kansas City at home didn't sit right with them or the fans.

So it sounds like Washington will be fired up for this game and treating it like its a damn Playoff game for them.

No excuses, we don´t win against a 3 team win playing for our playoff lives, we shouldn´t be in the playoffs and Garrett shouldn´t be coaching.

Too bad. Refs will give Dallas the game for a off the charts, high tv rating game, against the Eagles.

Can Philly @ Dallas be flexed?

Yep, until the receivers have the ball in their hands and either drop or fumble it.

It can be and it wouldn't surprise me if we win that it changes before Philly hits the field on SNF

Uhhh the Commanders like to beat Dallas? NO WAY!! Those bullies, I hope they take it easy on our boys, they don't have any reason to be MORE motivated than the Skins, right?

But hey Jerry said we love the "show" irregardless if we lose or win!

Just like when we rolled into that dump in 02 for the finale and it was Darryl green's last game.

That was campos last game, emmitts last game also.

Could turn out to be the same thing here, should be Garrett's last trip and who knows which of these veterans are back next year. I still have to wonder if ware doesn't just retire instead of being forced into a payout and becoming this fanbase's target every day.

Good for them. The game is more important to the Cowboys.

Right, they very well could pull it off. Shanahan for all his faults is not above attacking a teams weakness. With the way our defense is looking I won't be surprise to see whoever lines up in the skins backfield get 200 yds rushing on 35 carries while Demarco get his customary 12 carries.

Think Washington wins. Then the eagles blow us out. Without lee McCoy will have over 200 all purpose yards. Foles won't have to do much - just take the easy throws.

Please. Of course they are going to give it their all on Sunday. Most teams do even when they are out of the playoff race.

The difference between playoff bound teams and non playoff bound teams are the days leading up to kickoff. Those teams that truly have nothing to play for will not work as hard throughout the week with all the preparation and film study required for a game.

I have no doubt they will give it their all on sunday. But they should not be working nearly as hard throughout the week as the cowboys.

I wouldn't have expected anything less.

Still doesn't mean that the Cowboys can't win..and if they don't, it might not even matter.

But if the deadskins wern't up to beat us then they really have quit.

I've always hated playing in Washington. I remember struggling so bad with Troy even there. A late season loss that made Jimmy explode and a blowout loss to open the 93 season. Even the 70s and 80s games seemed bad there.
