(NFL) Washington vs. Dallas, 10/27/2014 4:30 PM, Score: 20 - 17
Point Spread: 10.00 | -110.00 Washington (Away)
Result: Win
Washington has actually been in some close games en route to a 2-5 record. They lost narrowly in Philly to the Eagles, 37-34. They were plucky in their MNF loss to Seattle a few weeks ago. And at Arizona last week, they were in the game pretty much the whole way. Maybe they can get a little spark from McCoy and build on the momentum of winning last week and pick up the little bit of slack that has been preventing more success. They always play the Cowboys tough. In a divisional setting, the Redskins can typically be counted on to provide stiff resistance. And while winless on the road, they've played pretty well against some tough teams away from home this season. I suspect Dallas will have trouble shaking loose of Washington. I look for a Dallas win, but for the Redskins to hang in there well enough to cover the spread. Lets back the underdog here with the Redskins plus the points.
