ARLINGTON - DeMarcus Lawrence remained resolute in how he framed the Cowboys' defensive performance in Thursday's 31-26 victory over rival Washington.
What about not getting a sack in 53 passing attempts? No takeaways for the fourth straight week? Of allowing three fourth-quarter touchdowns?
To it all, the defensive end replied, again and again, with a smile: "We're 10-1, so that's all that matters."
OK, valid. But the Cowboys largely depended on their offense in growing their winning streak to double digits. While the defense made some key red zone saves, it also allowed 505 yards of offense - the most this season - and gave up multiple big plays through the air.
