Is this season's Cowboys team as good as everyone is saying they are? It’s only Week 4 and already a lot of NFL fans are placing Dallas in the Super Bowl. Sure they lead the league in offensive yards and are third in the league in scoring, but they are not a lock just yet.
Standing in their way this week is a divisional foe that is starting to look like a playoff team after stumbling in its season opener. The Redskins have scored 53 points in winning their last two games and QB Jason Campbell has yet to commit a turnover this year. However, Washington will have to take the field Sunday without veteran defensive lineman Jason Taylor who is out with a calf injury.
The Cowboys have won 11 of last 12 meetings with the Redskins but before you place your bets, Washington is 5-1 ATS over the last six matchups.
Can the Redskins 16th-ranked defense against the run slow down the killer combo of Barber and Jones? If they can, then the heavily favored Cowboys will have a tough time covering 11.
