Schwartz Picks Commanders to Cover Against Cowboys in Week 2
Geoff Schwartz recommends backing the Washington Commanders to cover the spread against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 2. He notes Washington's defense limited Philadelphia to 10 first downs in Week 1, while Dallas's defense struggled against the Giants. Schwartz also expects improvement from quarterback Jayden Daniels in his second game back.
Washington's Week 1 showing against Philadelphia revealed a defense that held the Eagles to just 10 first downs, though a few explosive plays decided the game. The Commanders now face a Dallas defensive unit that was overpowered at the line of scrimmage and beaten repeatedly in coverage by the Giants, issues that typically require more than a week to correct.
Jayden Daniels, playing his first game after missing most of last season, is expected to show meaningful progress in his second start. Schwartz also highlights Houston's improved offensive line and run game, which helped the Texans score 31 points against Buffalo, supporting his wager on combined scoring in the Bengals-Texans contest.
