I don’t think I can pick the Matt Cassel-led Cowboys to beat anyone. Washington will strengthen its hold on the NFC East lead. |

Hard to pick against a Redskins team that has been good at home — especially the play of quarterback Kirk Cousins — against a Cowboys team that has yet to prove it can win without Tony Romo, who's out for the year. |

Another throw-the-record-books-out rivalry, as proven when they met on Monday night in Arlington last year, immortalized as the Colt McCoy Game. No Tony Romo for the Cowboys, obviously. Washington and Kirk Cousins have won five straight at home, including two NFC East games. Rivalry or not, all things considered, Washington can’t be taken seriously if it loses this one. |

Jerry Jones might have said this week he expects Tony Romo to play at a high level for the next four to five years -- but Romo's not walking through that door Monday. |

The Redskins are in first place and the Cowboys are playing out the string. That's hard to believe. Kirk Cousins has played well at home, but now the pressure is on. I say he plays well in that situation. Redskins keep winning. |

Washington is hard to beat at home. Dallas without Tony Romo is easy to beat anywhere. Advantage Washington. |

Not a great Monday matchup, but the rivalry has its selling points. Kirk Cousins has won five straight home starts and been terrific in them, yet I don’t quite trust the ’Skins. Dallas has won five of past seven trips to D.C., yet I don’t trust the Tony Romo-less ’Boys. I’ll split the difference. Washers eke it out but don’t cover.

Don't look now, but Kirk Cousins is making himself quite a bit of coin in his walk year. He's also getting the job done for the Redskins. Washington is a mess on the road, but doesn't lose at home. Without Tony Romo, the Cowboys are just a mess. |
