Let's look at the risk reward of the onside kick:
Reward: You get the ball and have all the momentum. You have taken control of the game and have everything going for you. You score, which is highly likely, you take the lead and put all the pressure on Dallas. You just flipped the game and put yourself in a position to win.
Risk: You give Dallas a short field. But you can't stop their offense so they are going to score. But instead of going 75 yards, they go 50 yards and save you about 2 or 3 minutes in time of possession.
The reward was so much greater than the risk. If the Redskins could stop Dallas, you absolutely kick deep. But they couldn't, so take the shot at flipping the game and if you don't, then you will get the ball back with more time on the clock.
