However, this is where a playoff team can prove themselves.The Commanders will have an opportunity to do such in Week 12 as they host the Dallas Cowboys, another NFC East rivalry. It's worth noting that first-year Washington head coach Dan Quinn formerly coached in Dallas.

November 22 - The Washington Commanders will have to wait at least another week for cornerback Marshon Lattimore. Acquired in a Nov. 5 trade with New Orleans, he has yet to practice for Washington due to a hamstring injury. On Friday, the Commanders (7-4) ruled Lattimore out for Sunday's game against the visiting Dallas Cowboys (3-7).

Cornerback Marshon Lattimore will miss his third straight game since being traded to Washington, but coach Dan Quinn says there's optimism Lattimore could debut next week.
