Washington ran circles around the Dallas Cowboys two weeks ago, and the extra yardage (397 yards vs. 142 yards) paid off. Washington blew past Dallas 25-3. The oddsmakers were on Washington’s side, but they didn’t give the team enough credit as the margin was unexpectedly wide. Among those leading the charge for them was RB Antonio Gibson, who rushed for one TD and 128 yards on 20 carries. This was the first time Gibson has racked up 100+ rushing yards all year.

Washington’s defense was a presence as well, holding Dallas to a paltry 142 yards. The defense embarrassed Dallas’ offensive line to sack the QB six times for a loss of 55 yards. Leading the way was LB Montez Sweat and his two sacks. Sweat now has five sacks through seven games.

Meanwhile, it was close but no cigar for the Giants as they fell 25-23 to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last Monday. No one had a standout game offensively for New York, but they got scores from WR Golden Tate, RB Dion Lewis, and RB Wayne Gallman. QB Daniel Jones ended up with a passer rating of 119.80.

Washington’s victory brought them up to 2-5 while New York’s loss pulled them down to 1-7. Washington is 0-1 after wins this year, and New York is 1-5 after losses.
