The Dallas Cowboys are the talk of the NFL right now, racing out to the leagues best record and a club-record winning streak behind pair of dynamic offensive rookies.The Cowboys (9-1) havent lost since the season opener way back on Sept. 11. Its a start that has everyones attention, given the prominence of the franchise and the circumstances surrounding its unexpected dominance.And while Dallas is enjoying its lofty perch atop the league standings, the Cowboys are quite aware of what awaits Thanksgiving against longtime rival Washington at AT&T Stadium.The defending NFC East champion Redskins (6-3-1) are off to one of their best starts in years and are looking for revenge after losing to Dallas earlier this season.Im excited about it, Cowboys first-year quarterback Dak Prescott said. I have never done this before, to respond real quick and play another game. But I love ball, and I love these games. Im excited for it and Im looking forward to it.Prescott and running back Ezekiel Elliott have electrified the Cowboys attack. Prescott has accounted for 21 touchdowns -- 17 passing and four rushing -- and Elliott leads the league in rushing with 1,102 yards.Dallas has piled up at least 400 yards of total offense in eight consecutive games, tying New England (2007) and Denver (2013) for the longest single-season streaks in NFL history.Prescott threw for 301 yards and three touchdowns, two going to Dez Bryant, in Sundays 27-17 win over Baltimore. Elliott ran for 97 yards.The only 10-1 start in Cowboys history came in 2007. Finishing off a season sweep of the Redskins would match that mark.Were taking it one game at a time and focusing on whats happening at that moment, said Bryant, who has five touchdown catches. Were not looking too far ahead.Washington is no slouch offensively behind Kirk Cousins. The Redskins walloped Green Bay 42-24 on Sunday, scoring the second-most points since Jay Gruden became head coach in 2014.With 515 total yards against the Packers, Washington has hit at least 500 yards twice this season. That ties the most in a single campaign, dating back to 1950.The Redskins finished with two 100-yard receivers (Pierre Garcon and Jamison Crowder) and a 100-yard rusher (Robert Kelley) in a single game for the first time since Sept. 12, 1999 against Dallas.DeSean Jackson stopped short of calling Sunday a breakout performance for the offense.Id like to say that, but its one game, he said. You cant put all the eggs in one basket for one game. We have to continue to come out here and put the work in every week. This is going to be a quick week for us, we play another on Thanksgiving.That game means a lot for us. We see everybody winning in our division and we still have a lot of work to put in to get to where we need to get to. We know whats at stake and we know what we want to accomplish at the same time.Washington is off to its best start since opening 7-3 in 1996. The Redskins have rebounded from being 0-2, which included a 27-23 home loss to Dallas on Sept. 18.Former Washington running back Alfred Morris had the game-winning touchdown for the Cowboys in the fourth quarter.The Redskins are 6-1-1 since that loss.Were feeling good, but at the same time its a short week and were playing one of the best teams in the NFL on Thursday, said Cousins, who has seven touchdowns passes in his last three games. Once again, I feel like I say it every week, but welcome to the NFL.It doesnt get any easier from here in our division. A lot of people wanted to take shots at it last year and said, You know, its not a very good division. I think this year proves that in the NFL everybody is good.The Cowboys have faced the Redskins a franchise-high seven times on Thanks?giving and hold a 6-1 record. Washington has won its last to visits to AT&T Stadium.Dallas, 29-18-1 all-time on the holiday, is aiming to snap a two-game losing streak on Turkey Day.

There are surprises among the Vezina candidates, but most of the others are standard top-tier performers, even if the two Hart Trophy runners-ups have never been quite as good as they have been through the first half of the season. PASADENA, Calif. -- Five years after Utah running back Joe Williams and UCLA quarterback Mike Fafaul left Fork Union Military Academy together, they both posted record-breaking performances on the same wild afternoon.Only Williams left the Rose Bowl happy with his effort -- and his decision to get back in the game with the Utes.Williams rushed for a school-record 332 yards and four touchdowns in his second game back from retirement, and No. 19 Utah held off pass-happy UCLA 52-45 Saturday.Williams broke off TD runs of 3, 43, 64 and 55 yards during the greatest rushing day in Utah (7-1, 4-1 Pac-12) history, surpassing Mike Andersons 1999 record, and the most prolific rushing performance ever by a UCLA opponent.Im pretty sure (the Bruins) are tired of seeing the back of my jersey running down the field, Williams said, giving the credit to his offensive line. Weve got five grown men out there that could be in the NFL tomorrow. Im just glad to be running behind them.Cory Butler-Byrd returned the opening kickoff for a 99-yard touchdown on a day of stunning superlatives for the Utes in their second straight win at the Rose Bowl.Williams quit football last month before returning last week when injuries decimated Utahs depth, and he has 511 yards on the ground in two games since.Its awesome, Utah coach Kyle Whittingham said. Weve had some really good running backs come through here, and played against some inferior teams (compared to UCLA). He broke the record of all-time, and weve had a bunch of guys in the NFL, running backs that have done a lot of great things.Williams broke Andersons Utah record shortly before shredding Edgerrin James record for a Bruins opponent on his fourth scoring run with 10:28 to play.That young man had a world-class day against us, and thats disappointing because weve been playing the run so well, UCLA coach Jim Mora said.Williams didnt get a chance after the game to talk to Fafaul, his former high school teammate in Virginia.Fafaul made his own history, setting UCLA records for pass attempts (70) and completions (40) while throwing forr 464 yards, third most in school annals.ddddddddddddUCLA essentially abandoned its awful running game, which began the weekend ranked 126th out of 128 FBS teams.We wanted to do something to help our run game and catch the defense off-guard, Fafaul said. Its not about the records or my performance. I just wanted a victory, and its really disappointing.The former walk-on had five touchdown passes and four interceptions for the Bruins (3-5, 1-4) in their fourth loss in five games.Fafaul was prolific but erratic in his second straight start in place of injured Josh Rosen, who went through warmups but didnt play. Fafaul had the third-biggest passing performance in UCLA history, trailing only 500-yard games by Cade McNown and Drew Olson.THE TAKEAWAYUtah: Williams ran wild on a record afternoon, but the ground game behind a dominant offensive line only lessens the sting for a Utah defense that got beaten for several big plays with poor tackling. Whittingham wont be happy about the Utes inability to limit a backup quarterback and an offense with no running game.UCLA: After struggling to run the ball all season, the Bruins abruptly reverted back to the spread passing offense run by departed offensive coordinator Noel Mazzone. After running the ball just seven times in the first half, the Bruins didnt call another running play until the final snap of the third quarter. Its difficult from the standpoint that (the Utes) kind of know whats coming, Fafaul said.POLL IMPLICATIONSUtah: Injuries and defensive woes cant slow down the Utes, who appear to be Colorados biggest competition for the Pac-12 South title. The Utes should slide up a bit in the polls with a difficult late-season schedule looming.UP NEXTUtah: The Utes return home to host dominant Washington in one of the seasons biggest matchups in the topsy-turvy Pac-12.UCLA: After a bye, the Bruins continue chasing bowl eligibility with a Thursday night trip to suddenly powerful Colorado.
