The Dallas Cowboys topped the Washington Commanders with a decisive 45-20 victory in Week 18 of the 2026 season. With playoff implications hanging in the balance, the Cowboys delivered a commanding performance to secure their postseason spot and finish the regular season on a high note.
Dak Prescott was the star of the show, throwing for an impressive 380 yards and four touchdowns, showcasing his elite passing ability. Javonte Williams added a powerful ground game with 112 rushing yards, while CeeDee Lamb torched the Commanders' secondary for 178 receiving yards, proving to be an unstoppable force throughout the contest.
Defensively, the Cowboys made their mark with a key interception from Cobie Durant that shifted momentum in their favor.
