I think tonight is going to be a game of matchups and rhythm. Dallas is sure to first try to contain Portis. That is obvious. However, they should not overlook the Coles - Hunter matchup. Dallas, on the other hand, is going to try to match up TE Whitten against Bowen, who struggles at man-to-man coverage. Washington would like to matchup Rookie Sean Taylor on Whitten, but that will be difficult if Dallas establishes a running game early. That will be difficult with Julius Jones missing from the lineup. The hero may be Rashard Lee. Washington's D is top-ranked, but they really haven't been challenged yet (Bucs and NYG). THE COWBOYS WILL WIN IF ... On offense, the Cowboys must eliminate the penalties and turnovers that prevented them from finishing drives in the first two games. Defensively, they must contain running back Clinton Portis and not give up the big play to receiver Laveranues Coles. THE REDSKINS WILL WIN IF ... They eliminate the seven turnovers that plagued them last week and establish the running game behind Clinton Portis. Defensively, the Redskins must put heat on quarterback Vinny Testaverde and force mistakes by getting him out of his comfort zone. Watch out for Sean Taylor in this game.
Look out for Ramsey. This kid is highly underrated. He has what it takes to become a good NFL QB. A good rivalry game such as this might be what it takes to get him to step it up.

When the Redskins signed Brunnell, and Ramsey was so upset, I was hoping the Cowboys made a trade for him instead of signing Vinny (even though I knew the intra-divisional trade would never happen).
Yeah...I had him on a fantasy team last year. That was a good time...he racked up some good numbers in that league. I know Gibbs is going to look primarily to the run, but I really would like to see Ramsey put the ball up 35 times.
