Per Dallas’s media site, the Cowboys have not allowed a 100-yard rusher, a 100-yard receiver or a 300-yard passer yet this season. The last time that happened was back in 1990, when the Miami Dolphins did it.
On the other side, the Commanders are fresh from their second straight defeat, falling to the New York Giants, 31-19, last week. Washington quarterback Sam Howell didn’t have his best game, going 31-45 for 255 yards, a touchdown and three interceptions in the loss.
After holding the Giants to 14 points over the first three quarters, the Commanders’ defense gave up 17 points to New York in the game’s final 15 minutes.
Dallas leads the all-time series against Washington, 76-46-2. The Cowboys have won three of their last four games against the Commanders. Over his career, Prescott has a 9-2 record against Washington.
On Thanksgiving, Dallas is 32-22-1. The Cowboys have faced the Commanders more than any other team on Thanksgiving. The longtime rivals have clashed 10 times, with Dallas getting the better of Washington in eight of those matchups.

Cowboys vs Commanders: What They’re Saying
Different thought process as far as I’m concerned in my messaging with the players, hopefully it’s the right one. … They really seemed focused and brought some energy. They seem to be in a good place right now. I think the biggest thing more than anything else is this is a divisional game and it’s against probably our archrival. So, it’s a different kind of messaging, it’s a different kind of outlook and approach, more so than anything else.” — Washington head coach Ron Rivera on prepping his team to play Dallas.
“Focus will be high. Damn sure from my part. I know, the rest of the guys, that will be my job as a leader is making sure guys understand that. Take care of business on Thanksgiving and then we can enjoy our holidays the right way.” — Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott on playing against Washington.
