Washington Commanders Overwhelmed at AT&T Stadium by Dominant Dallas Cowboys
The Washington Commanders, with a record of 4-8, faced a tough game against the Dallas Cowboys, who improved their standing to 8-3 after securing a commanding victory. The final scoreline read 45-10 in favor of the home team.
In Arlington's AT&T Stadium, the Washington Commanders were unable to match the intensity and execution displayed by their opponents. Despite completing 28 out of 44 passing attempts for a total of 300 yards, the Commanders' offense struggled to find the end zone through the air. The lone touchdown came from their ground game which amassed 108 yards on 27 carries, averaging four yards per attempt. This effort was highlighted by a single rushing touchdown.
The kicking unit contributed with perfection as they successfully converted one field goal from within the range of forty-nine yards and made an extra point attempt following the team's only touchdown. However, this was not enough to keep pace with an aggressive Cowboys side that seemed relentless throughout.
On defense, there were flashes of resistance from Washington as they managed three passes defended and forced one fumble during play. Yet without any sacks or interceptions recorded against Dallas' quarterback and only two hits managed throughout playtime, it was clear that more pressure was needed to disrupt their opponent's offensive rhythm.
Special teams had mixed results; while all kickoffs resulted in touchbacks ensuring no return yardage for Dallas, punt returns yielded nine yards across two attempts with an average return distance being four and half yards.
Penalties were few but costly for Washington; four infractions set them back twenty-five yards overall and granted one first down to Dallas in key moments.
