Scout's Eye: Monday Comes Down To Cousins' Ball Security, Dallas Ground Game

IRVING, Texas – The two big keys I’m watching this week while the Cowboys try to get back on the winning track against Washington.

Dallas Cowboys Win If:

In four of the Redskins’ six losses this season, Kirk Cousins has thrown two interceptions. The tape has shown that when Cousins makes these mistakes, it is due to him feeling defensive pressure. Three weeks ago, Carolina was outstanding in not allowing Cousins to feel comfortable at all, and with that pressure they were able to turn him over.

For the season, Washington overall has done a nice job protecting him, but they have allowed eight of their 17 total sacks in two of their last three games.
