Week 12 and it is the Dallas Cowboys.
After two losses, there is nothing more to get the blood pumping, to get back on track than going up against your biggest rivals.
Washington definitely need to see improvement, especially the run defense which has not been particularly enthralling.
With Dak Prescott out for the season it is hoped that pressure can be put on the Cowboys offense straight from the off to unsettle any rhythm they may wish to get into.
Dallas have not been convincing this season. If Washington were coming into this game off the back of a least one win, I would say confidence is high.
However, no matter how much faith and hope one has against the Cowboys, there still has to be a sprinkling of honesty.
The Cowboys have an aggressive defense and our O-Line is going to have to step up.
Not just to protect Jayden Daniels who has seen his fair share of the injury room the last few weeks, but so Brian Robinson can get back into the game without any issues.
I still believe Washington will make the playoffs and I have every confidence that we are capable of beating Dallas – who are coming off an even longer string of losses.
If we are able to put the Cowboys to bed, we are back on track and can concentrate on a possible assault at the division title.
It would be great to see Terry McLaurin bounce back after a lacklustre last game.
If the wheels on offense can turn, and pieces fall into place, I can see Washington winning by a two-score margin.
