We all understand that the NFL is an up-and-down league. Teams can look like garbage one week and suddenly go toe-to-toe with the league’s best the next—or vice-versa. Just ask the Bills. Or the Packers. Or the Dolphins.
Heck, just ask the Dallas Cowboys, who sit at 3-3 after alternating losses and wins over the first month-plus of the NFL season. Dallas scored just eight points in a season-opening defeat at the hands of the same Panthers team the Redskins just beat, yet the Cowboys are also coming off of an absolutely dominant victory over the previously-formidable Jaguars (who are now—you guessed it—also 3-3).
