A Monday Night Football matchup between NFC East teams Dallas Cowboys (3-8) and Washington Redskins (5-6) is set at the FedEx Field to conclude Week 13 of the 2015 NFL season.
The Cowboys fell to the undefeated Carolina Panthers, 14-33, at the AT&T Stadium on November 26th as they also lost quarterback Tony Romo for the season, as per the New York Daily News.
Romo re-broke the same collarbone he injured during their Week 2 win over the Eagles, which sidelined him for seven weeks. Dallas lost all of its games without their starting signal caller and now he is reportedly out for the rest of the season.
Meanwhile, the Redskins turned back NFC East rival New York Giants, 20-14, also at the FedEx Field last Sunday, via the Washington Post.
Quarterback Kirk Cousins had an impressive game, passing 20-of-29 for 302 yards and one touchdown with no sacks and interceptions to lead the Redskins to the victory. The win tied Washington and New York at the top of the NFC East both with 5-6 slates.
Without Romo, it would be hard for the Cowboys to put up a fight against the streaking Redskins.
Prediction: Redskins win, 28-10.
