Payne told reporters after Washington\u2019s 56-14 blowout loss that it was a \u201cbrotherly disagreement.\u201d The two teammates played at the University of Alabama together from 2015-2016.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJust a little brotherly disagreement; maybe the wrong place, wrong time, but it happened,\u201d Payne said.<\/p>\n<p>Washington head coach Ron Rivera said the altercation occurred due to frustration, with the last few weeks \u2014 the Football Team has now lost three straight \u2014 adding fuel to the fire.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYeah, frustration, you know? Wanting to win,\u201d Rivera <a href=\"https:\/\/bleacherreport.com\/articles\/10022167-wfts-ron-rivera-jonathan-allen-daron-payne-altercation-was-result-of-frustration\">said<\/a> when asked if the fight was indicative of bigger picture things. \u201cHaving an opportunity for the last few weeks and not being able to get it done. Not being able to have all the pieces in place that you need to go out there and play together. That\u2019s what that is. That\u2019s guys wanting to compete and wanting to win, more than anything else.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Washington was never in the game Sunday night, quickly going down 21-0 and heading into halftime facing a 42-7 deficit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t think it takes a rocket scientist,\u201d Allen <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nfl\/story\/_\/id\/32943800\/washington-football-team-dt-jonathan-allen-throws-punch-teammate-daron-payne-sideline\">said<\/a> about why it started. \u201cIf you look at how that game went, emotions are high, things are high, things happen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen something happens on the field, you never let it carry into the locker room,\u201d Allen <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nfl\/story\/_\/id\/32943800\/washington-football-team-dt-jonathan-allen-throws-punch-teammate-daron-payne-sideline\">said<\/a>. \u201cThings get heated, we fix them, we sit down as grown men and we move on.<\/p>\n<p>The 56 points was the most given up by a Washington defense since 2010, dropping the Football Team to 6-9 on the season as the Cowboys officially wrapped up the NFC East title on Sunday. Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott threw four touchdowns on the night, finishing the game 28-39 for 330 yards. It was the most points scored by Dallas since the 1980 season.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI thought he was in total control,\u201d Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nfl\/recap?gameId=401326567\">said<\/a>. \u201cHis numbers in the first half reflect that. Had some shot opportunities, was patient with the checkdowns. I really like the way he played tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Washington is not yet eliminated from playoff contention, though their chances are bleak. They have two games remaining on the schedule, with a visit from the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday. A loss to the Eagles will officially eliminate the Football Team from the playoffs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Joe Morgan is the Sports Reporter for The Daily Wire.
