Through the first six weeks of the 2025 NFL season the Dallas Cowboys have proven they are very much at the opposite end of the spectrum as far as their offense and defense is concerned. Offensively they are one of the best, but defensively they been absolutely atrocious.<\/p>\n
The Cowboys defense currently ranks dead last in the NFL in yards allowed at 412 per game and second to last in points allowed at 30.7 per game. This defense is without a doubt historically bad and have allowed opposing quarterbacks to have an absolute field day each and every week this year.<\/p>\n
Take last week for instance. QB Bryce Young is still trying to prove he\u2019s a capable starter in the league and even he was able to throw for a three touchdowns to help upset the Cowboys and lead his team to victory. Entering a stretch of the season where they\u2019ll be facing even better QBs, the future looks a little gloomy for Dallas\u2019 defense.<\/p>\n
With the division rival Washington Commanders coming to town this week, their second-year QB looks to be the next in line to have a field day against Dallas\u2019 defense. An argument could be made he\u2019s potentially the best QB they faced so far this season. His dual-threat ability sets him apart and it could be a big problem for Dallas.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s no secret the Cowboys have struggled containing dual threat QBs in the past and that this season is no different. Jayden Daniels to date has rushed for 176 yards on 36 attempts. He did miss a couple of games after getting injured on a scrambling attempt, but fully healthy now presents a definite problem for Dallas.<\/p>\n
Not only is Daniels a real threat on the ground with his legs, but he also possesses the ability to pile up a lot of receiving yards against the Cowboys best defense, who is currently ranked dead last in the league allowing 269.5 yards per game. That certainly doesn\u2019t bode well for the Cowboys.<\/p>\n
Both the Cowboys and Commanders are coming off of disappointing Week 6 losses that were decided by last-second field goals and you can bet both of them want to put that behind them by performing well this week. But, the team that likely earns the \u201cW\u201d is probably the one who has the better QB play.<\/p>\n
With the way the Cowboys defense currently stands, their offense will have to be near perfect each and every week moving forward if they want any chance of winning. That means Dak Prescott and Company can\u2019t afford to miss a beat every single game for the remainder of the season.<\/p>\n
This Week 7 matchup between the Cowboys and Commanders shapes up to be one of the high-scoring nature were both Dak Prescott and Jayden Daniels will play the most important part. Sadly, Daniels may have a slight advantage considering Dallas\u2019 defense has yet to prove they can stop anyone this year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Through the first six weeks of the 2025 NFL season the Dallas Cowboys have proven they are very…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":308343,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5135],"tags":[5229,1596,7634,358,3187,67,586,132,5230,68,2969],"class_list":{"0":"post-308342","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-dallas","8":"tag-america","9":"tag-dallas","10":"tag-dallas-cowboys-roster","11":"tag-texas","12":"tag-tx","13":"tag-united-states","14":"tag-united-states-of-america","15":"tag-unitedstates","16":"tag-unitedstatesofamerica","17":"tag-us","18":"tag-usa"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115384509628391497","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/308342","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=308342"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/308342\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/308343"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=308342"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=308342"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=308342"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
