WASHINGTON-DALLAS PREVIEW
Cris Collinsworth on Washington-Dallas: “The Raiders game was really the first time we saw the old RG III, the guy who is the playmaker, the scrambler, with the ability to move around and make big throws down the field like he did a season ago. For Dallas, coming off such an emotional game, they now have to get jacked back up for this division game, which is very important.”
Tony Dungy on Washington-Dallas: “Two weeks ago, we said ‘Dallas is the class of the league.’ They had won a couple of big games. Now they lose two in a row. Defensively, they have to force turnovers to win and Romo has got to do it in the big moments. Washington is getting better. RG III is getting healthier. This going to be an interesting game.”
