Dak Prescott Week 17 Outlook - Cowboys at Commanders

By Ellis Johnson (FantasyPros), Wed, Dec 24th 2025, 6:33pm EST

It was tough sledding last week against the Chargers. Thankfully, the Commanders' defense may be the easiest sledding in the league. I'm not sure what the opposite of "tough sledding" is, but you get my point. The Commanders are allowing the second-most yards to opposing offenses on the season. There is a world in which the Cowboys start fast and can lean on their run game to close this game out. However, their defense is always prone to giving up points to any offense. With CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens to throw to, Prescott should return to his fantasy ways.
