The Dallas Cowboys are now riding a three-game winning streak after beating the Washington Commanders, 25-10, in the Week 4. The Cowboys stayed in second place in the NFC East and are now 2-0 within the division.
It was another week where backup quarterback Cooper Rush did enough to lead the offense, throwing for 223 yards and two scores. Rush wasn’t as sharp as he was in the last two weeks, but he didn’t make many mistakes leading the team to another win. The running game was held in check, rushing for only 62 yards, yet the offense managed to move the ball.
The defense for Dallas was the story once again. Dan Quinn’s unit only sacked Commanders quarterback Carson Wentz two times, but they pressured him relentlessly, never allowing him to establish a rhythm. The Commanders had 297 total yards, some of which was done with the Cowboys surrendering yards late with the game in hand.
Here’s what we learned about the Cowboys in their Week 4 win over the rival Commanders.
