Point Spread: -4.00 | -110.00 Dallas (Away)
Result: Loss
The Cowboys come into their road game with the Packers healthy, rested and on a two game win streak, none of which can be said of the Packers. On offense, they have seen a huge improvement since the return of Prescott, plus games against a couple of lesser lights. One of those 'lesser lights' just beat up on Green Bay last week. There is almost no area where the Packers can match the Cowboys offense over their last three games. Prescott has bounced back from injury well, and the run game has taken off in recent weeks.
The Packers are off an historically poor performance, with Rodgers throwing 3 picks and playing to a passer rating in the 50's. This against one of the worst defenses in the league. On defense, it is something of a different story. The Cowboys allowing 29 points and 240 rush yards to the Bears is concerning. The Cowboys can be run on, but that hasn't translated into points to date. The Packers could run more, with solid running backs in Dillon and Jones (limited), but haven't so far and are a poor 30th in the league in rush points scored. Then there is the Cowboys' passer pressure to consider. Rogers is generally well protected, but that may change on Sunday. Dallas averages 4 sacks a game and is first in QB pressure, with Green Bay well down the list. The Cowboys are also very good in takeaways, and Rodgers, as we saw last week, is not immmune to throwing the ball away.
The Packers are a much injured team this week. I had hopes for the Packers' offense to show up last week, but won't be holding my breath on Sunday Look for the Cowboys to win and cover in this touted grudge match.
