There’s no love lost between the Dallas Cowboys and the Washington Commanders, but the Week 12 matchup doesn’t have the same feel when there isn’t much riding on the game for both teams. It hasn’t been that way in quite some time, as the Cowboys have been getting the best of their opponents recently.
That won’t be the case in this contest, as the Commanders are ahead in the NFC East standings at 7-4 and are inside the current playoff race. The Cowboys, on the other hand, are in a different race, for a top 5 draft pick. That’s something the fans want, but Jerry Jones shies away from.
The organic tank is on for the Cowboys, yet these are professional athletes who won’t back down from trying to win. Sadly for Team Tank, Mike McCarthy’s team does have a path to winning the Week 12 meeting, as there are things to love about playing the Commanders.
