Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys win the NFC East by beating the Commanders 38-10
Dak Prescott threw two of his four touchdown passes to CeeDee Lamb and the Dallas Cowboys won the NFC East and secured the No. 2 seed in the conference by closing the regular season with a 38-10 victory over the Washington Commanders
LANDOVER, Md. (AP) — Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys did what they set out to do Sunday against the rival Commanders — unlike a year ago — by earning the NFC East title and the No. 2 seed in the conference with a 38-10 victory at Washington to close the regular season.
Prescott threw two of his four TDs passes to CeeDee Lamb and finished 31 for 36 for 279 yards as Dallas (12-5) assured itself of playing at home to open the postseason. That’s a big deal for a club that went 8-0 in Dallas this season and has won 16 games in a row there.
It’s a third consecutive 12-5 record and postseason trip for Dallas under coach Mike McCarthy.
Last-place Washington (4-13 overall, 0-6 in the NFC East) and expected-to-be-gone Ron Rivera are at the other end of the spectrum after tying a franchise mark for most losses in a season.
