Week 2 vs. WAS
Date published: Sept. 18, 2019

Would have liked to see DAL defense grab some turnovers in this game - they were definitely there for the taking, and with a big lead, unleash the ball hawks!

Target rate of takeaways should be 30 for this unit. 0 against Washington.

Defensive stats:
255 yards
19 first downs
1 sack
2-9 third down
3-3 redzone
17 splashes

Great red zone numbers, great third down numbers. This usually results in a win; if defense can get takeaways, sky is the limit.
