Cowboys, Redskins renew rivalry in D.C.

Why to watch
This is still a rivalry game, for what that's worth. There is a Rex Grossman turnover drinking game out there somewhere. His meltdown in Dallas earlier this year began a slide that led to John Beck starting, which led back to Grossman. Dallas is in position to push the Giants in the NFC East.

Inside story
DeMarcus Ware will need a few more big games to break Michael Strahan's sack record, and this could be one right here. Ware has 10 sacks and four forced fumbles in 13 games against Washington, and this offensive line can be exploited. Redskins offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan has been calling pass plays 75 percent of the time the last five weeks. That has to be music to Ware's ears.
