Dallas Cowboys

We highlighted the Dallas Cowboys in this column last week, and they came through in a big way, sacking Blake Bortles three times and forcing two turnovers en route to a top-10 fantasy finish.

The Cowboys now head to D.C. to take on Washington, who bounced back in Week 6 against the Carolina Panthers after being run out of New Orleans in Week 5. Alex Smith has only 3 turnovers on the season, but he's taken 12 sacks through five games. In fact, Smith has been sacked three times in four separate games this season.

That is not be a good sign for Smith and Washington's offensive line as they'll now face one of their toughest tests to date against the Cowboys' pass rush. The Cowboys rank fifth in both sacks (18) and quarterback hits (40) as this defense has quickly become the strength of the team.

The Cowboys are 1.5-point underdogs in this game, but on the strength of a fierce pass rush, they could once again put up a big fantasy day.
