It feels like forever ago that these two teams played each other, but it’s only been a month since Jon Bostic delivered one of the most egregiously illegal hits on Andy Dalton in a game that the Washington Football Team won by a final score of 25-3. That seemed to be a microcosm of the 2020 Cowboys: no fight, no passion, and a team that had already checked out on their new coaching staff.
How quickly things can change in a month. In their next game after that loss in the nation’s capitol, the Cowboys defense took a big step forward against the Eagles and played very competitively until a controversial fumble return touchdown late in the game.
