Fire against ice, the best offense against the third best defense in the league, this is what the game between the Dallas Cowboys and the Denver Broncos in this upcoming Sunday Night Football means. Even with a powerful offense, Dallas quarterback Dak Prescott will need more than just the support and good play of his teammates, as Denver is not an easy team to deal with, especially playing at Empower Field at Mile High.
Prescott found gaps through the air in the last game against the Commanders, benefiting from the work of his running back Javonte Williams, who surpassed the 100-yard rushing barrier (116) and managed to get into the promised land on one occasion. Dak completed 21 of his 30 passes for 264 yards and three scores. After three games away, CeeDee Lamb returned to the gridiron and did so with an outstanding performance of five receptions for 110 yards and a TD.
Dak Prescott has never beaten the Denver Broncos and must ‘play dirty’
Quarterback Dak Prescott expects a shark when he leads his high-flying offense against the stingy defense of the Denver Broncos. The Broncos allow just 273.1 yards per game, and opponents have found the end zone 11 times, the fewest in the league. The Cowboys’ offense, meanwhile, averages 390.6 yards per game and has scored 25 touchdowns, which is the second most in the league.
Something has to give, so the Cowboys’ star quarterback Dak Prescott is gearing up for a four-quarter, back-and-forth dogfight, and he knows it may not be pretty, but the team is ready to do whatever it takes to secure a win. “We have to go into this game looking to win dirty,” Prescott said via Patrik Walker of the team’s official website.
Denver Broncos would seek Joel Bitonio
The Denver Broncos, the Dallas Cowboys’ next opponent, got a solid performance from undrafted free agent and backup starter Alex Palczewski in Week 7, but a trade could still be possible before the deadline. A target like Joel Bitonio of the Cleveland Browns is among the more expensive potential options, but he is also one of the best
And most importantly, the Browns‘ current trajectory could make him available before the deadline. Bitonio also has ties to the current Broncos roster, who are looking to wait until starting left guard Ben Powers recovers from a biceps injury, which they expect in December. 9News’ Mike Klis mentioned Bitonio among other possible options for the Broncos before the trade deadline.
