"Facing a real possibility of being 3-3 one-third of the way into the 2025 season, the Dallas Cowboys will hit a critical two-game test for the 2025 season. It will literally be a make-or-break stretch for Dallas. They will face two 2024 playoff teams back-to-back. Both are legitimate contenders to win their respective conference championships on the final Sunday of January 2026."
"Both teams are coming off disappointing losses with their respective defenses failing to get off the field at the end of the game. In Washington's case, it's hard to ask a defense to hold up when its offense turns the ball over three times. Including once at midfield with two minutes left in the game. In Dallas' case, the Cowboys' defense might as well not even walk onto the field. It wouldn't change the outcome of a majority of their opponents' drives."
Dallas enters Week 7 at 2-3-1 and faces a pivotal stretch that will determine 2025 playoff viability. Week 7 pits Dallas against Washington at AT&T Stadium with kickoff at 3:25 p.m. CDT on FOX. Both teams suffered recent losses marked by late defensive breakdowns. Washington's defense was hampered by three offensive turnovers, including a costly midfield turnover with two minutes remaining. Dallas' defense has struggled to stop opposing drives. A Cowboys win would move Dallas into second place in the NFC East; a loss combined with a Giants win would drop Dallas to last. Dallas leads the all-time series 79-49-2.
