Jayden Daniels suffered a hamstring injury in the third quarter of Saturday’s road game against the Dallas Cowboys and did not return. Backup Marcus Mariota relieved Daniels and finished 4-of-10 for 63 yards, an interception and 34 rushing yards in the 44-22 loss.

As the Cowboys now sit at 3-3-1 in head coach Brian Schottenheimer’s first season in charge, owner Jerry Jones spoke very highly of his Sunday performance. “To me, last week was about as good a coaching job as I’ve been around since I don’t know when,” Jones said on 1053thefan.

The Commanders kept their offense on the field on fourth and three from their own 46-yard line, but Dan Quinn sent Tress Way out to punt after a false start penalty on Sam Cosmi made it fourth and eight. The Cowboys will begin their next drive from their own 1. (Cowboys 7, Commanders 0, 11:35 left in the first quarter)

One fan is convinced that the Commanders-Cowboys game was rigged since Jayden Daniels wouldn't throw it to Luke McCaffrey.

The Cowboys’ COO and co-owner particularly pointed out how Schottenheimer and Eberflus worked together to solve some of the team’s defensive struggles going into the Week 7 matchup. While the defense dominated the Jayden Daniels-led group, Dak Prescott and the offense made the most of multiple scoring opportunities.

The Washington Commanders scored a touchdown with 45 seconds remaining in the first half of Sunday's matchup against the Dallas Cowboys.
