Meanwhile, the Dallas Cowboys have been giving up a ton of points and now face the unenviable task of trying to stop Jayden Daniels and the Washington Commanders. have averaged an incredible 39.1 points per game over their last seven contests thanks to a balanced offense that ranks third in the league in dropback EPA and second in rush EPA. were shredded by the Vikings and Bills in Weeks 9 and 10, surrendering more than 400 yards in both matchups.
Daniels and the Commanders have enjoyed nine days off entering Sunday’s clash, and if he’s even close to 100%, he’ll put points on the board.side that has surrendered 34.4 points per game over their last five contests. The Cowboys are now 30th in the league in defensive EPA and 32nd in defensive rush EPA, and I don’t see them giving much of a defensive effort down the stretch.
That said, their defense has been excellent regardless of where they’ve played. The Broncos are third in the league in defensive EPA and sit fourth in yards allowed per rush and third in yards allowed per pass . They should have no problem shutting down a Raiders offense that ranks 29th in the league in yards per play .
