NFL: Washington Redskins vs Dallas Cowboys matchup analysis

The winners of the NFC East division the Dallas Cowboys will travel to the FedEx Field in Landover to face the team who gave them an huge favor beating at home the Eagles ti kill their chances to win the division and go to playoffs but they will play tough especially RG3 to impress the coaching stuff and the front office to get a job next season. The Cowboys still in the race for the 1st seed in the NFC but to do that they must win this game and to do that they will need to attack them especially on the air and play a similar kind of game that they played against the Colts last week due to the tough Washington's defense against the runs especially the inside ones, so Romo's accurancy will be the major key for their success on this game along with the big advantage on outside matchups with Bryant and Williams a way over Street and Amerson. The Redskins safeties usually play committed to the runs so Romo should attack them deep with play action fakes, fly routes and double moves. On defense the biggest threat to face will be WR DeSean Jackson who had an huge game against the Eagles and along with Garcon will be so difficult to cover for the Cowboys d-backs but to avoid to allow big plays on the air putting pressure on Griffin something that always provide good results to the opponents of the Redskins in form of fumbles, pick 6 and other turnovers. If pass rushing wouldn't be able to get Griffin to minimize the damage i would say both safeties to be always ready to help over the top especially on Jackson.
The Redskins key to win offensively will be unpredictable, i mean be good to alternate north-south typical Morris' runs to play-action passes to red options to bootleg passes, if that will work and their o-line will make a good job they will not fall in 3rd and long situations that is a awful situations for them due to the RG3 inability to be a pocket passer. On defense they must continue to be tough against the run because against Murray and the great Cowboys o-line they must limit the damages and hit hard Murray to let him fumble the ball, avoiding to allow so much on the ground would give them a chance to stop the Dallas' offense forcing Kerrigan & Co. to be effective on obvious pass situations and this will be the only chance that they have to stop Cowboys' passing game.
My final result prediction is: Redskins 24 Cowboys 41 with Romo as the MVP and Kerrigan as the X-factor of the game who could change it with his pressure on Romo.
