Third Quarter of Season
Week 9 vs. Pittsburgh Steelers
The Cowboys will host Pittsburgh and play better smash mouth football. Zeke will go off in a game where he needs to be tough and reliable. The Steelers will be happy to have Big Ben back for this season, but he is not able to do enough to win in Dallas.
Cowboys: 7-2
Week 10 @ Minnesota Vikings
Minnesota did almost an entire overhaul of their secondary this offseason after making it to the playoffs in 2019. There will be games where the new unit performs well, but with so many weapons on offense. Dak is able to utilize matchups and led his team to victory.
Cowboys: 8-2
Week 11 vs. Washington Football Team
Playing any team twice is a challenge and Dallas has shown that they are not above losing to teams they should beat. Washington will capture lightening in a bottle and beat the top team in the NFC East. This loss will sting for Dallas knowing that with such a good record they have a chance to secure a first round bye.
Cowboys: 8-3
Week 12 @ Baltimore Ravens
Fans forget about a first round bye and just hope to get another win after Dallas gets run all over by the Ravens. Lamar Jackson enters this trying to show that his MVP campaign was not a fluke, and he takes advantage of a Dallas defense who will struggle generating any kind of pressure.
Cowboys: 8-4
