The New York Giants came into Jerry World last weekend with the idea they could be the team to knock off the high powered Cowboys offense. While they hung around for a while, it just wasn’t meant to be.

Washington played a different kind of game a weekend ago. Against a bad Tennessee Titans squad, the Redskins needed two quarterbacks and a last second field goal to seal the victory.

Looking at the matchup between the two teams, the Redskins will have to play a complete game to stay in this one. Starting Colt McCoy at quarterback the Redskins will need to hope that he can take care of the ball and do just enough to put them in a position to win.

Here is how Madden 15 sees things turning out:

Washington Redskins (27) Dallas Cowboys (28)

Colt McCoy 219 yards
Tony Romo 226 yards 2 touchdowns
DeMarco Murray 20 carries 88 yards
Dez Bryant 6 receptions 56 yards 2 touchdowns

As mentioned off the top, the Redskins and Cowboys have a pretty storied rivalry, and the games tend to reflect that. This season however, between Murray, Romo, and Dez, the Cowboys offense has just been too much for most teams. With a much improved defense, Dallas looks like one of the best teams in the NFL.

As week 8 comes to a close, check out how well Madden 15 did picking matchups this week and make sure to check back next Thursday for the unveiling of the week 9 predictions.
