REDSKINS 20 COWBOYS 17 F/OT...NFL Week 8 "Monday Night Football" Recap in "A QB Driven League"...Former Hookem' Horns star QB McCOY hooks the COWBOYS in Jerry's House!...ROMO goes out with a Back Contusion only to do his best WILLIS REED Impersonation!...The 'BOYS Backer DURANT with a possible Torn Biceps not good for that MARINELLI led "D"! #WSHvsDAL #SKINSnation #CowboysNation #MNFWkRecap

Hats off to #HTTR lead man Jay Gruden seemingly dead in the water coming into Jerry's House with his 3rd string QB Colt McCoy from Hookem' Horns Lore! The Dallas Cowboys came in with a six game win streak and playing at their house on prime time with everything going in their favor. Then it happened...

McCoy played Colt McCoy ball after settling down as he was a cool 25 for 30 for 299 yards and did not turnover the Wilson pigskin. 'Skins RB Alfred "1996 Nissan Sentra" Morris ran for 73 yards on 18 carries with the bulk of that load riding off tackle off All-Pro Trent Williams of Boomer Sooner! DeSean "Nestea Plunge" Jackson with a quiet 136 yards on six grabs was the calm before the storm.

After all the dust settled the play of the game was in extras with the 'Skins up 20-17 stopping the Cowboys on their first four downs. 'Skins D-Coordinator Jim Haslett was money all night long as he started emptying the holster late bringing everything but the Redskins Cheerleaders and Daniel Snyder to the box.

In the loss Boomer Sooner and Cowboys star RB DeMarco Murray accounted for 221 total yards with 141 yards on 19 carries coming from the ground. Murray also led the 'Boys with 80 yards on four grabs as the "X" of Jordan Brand 'Boys WR Dez Bryant was held to three grabs for 30 yards.

QB Tony Romo left the game in the 3r hurt on z blitz by the 'Skins as he was 17 for 28 for 209 yards and a TD. He left and back up Brandon Weeden took the reigns and accounted fop 10 points on two drives and was rather impressive.

In hindsight this might be a costly loss as Cowboys inside backer Justin Durant might be out with Torn Biceps and that is a huge blow as he and Rolando McClain have been vital to the Cowboys success on "D"! Romo reportedly will be evaluated but world around Jerry's House is its a back contusion.

#HTTR moves to 3-5 and the Cowboys drop to 6-2 a 1.2 game ahead of the Philadelphia Eagles...'Skins not out of anything just yet!
