Four plays later, Dan Bailey missed a 34-yard field wide to the right. Amazingly, Elliott, the anointed elixir to all that ailed the Cowboys in his absence caused by a

Cowboys left tackle Tyron Smith started, but he lasted only three plays.

The Redskins have had 21 different combinations in 11 football games. You’re decimated. If I was running a football operation the first thing I would do, and this is what Jerry has done, I would build my football team through my offensive and defensive lines. You saw when the offensive line took

I don’t think I can remember going through such a rude awakening over such a short span of time. It wasn’t that long ago that many of us felt great about this team. Dallas was sitting at 5-3 and just came off a dominant win against the Kansas City Chiefs who earlier in the season looked like
