Gut Feeling: DSF writers give their prediction on Cowboys-Packers

Gut Feeling: DSF writers give their prediction on Cowboys-Packers

Corey: After a very disappointing showing in New Orleans, I expect the Dallas Cowboys to rebound against the Green Bay Packers. The Cowboys will be without left tackle Tyron Smith but they will get Michael Gallup back, which will be huge for the offense getting back on track. Ezekiel Elliott should be able to find more running room in this game as well. As good as Aaron Rodgers still is, I do not believe the Packers will have enough offense to go toe to toe with the Cowboys without receiver Davante Adams. Cowboys 27 Packers 17.

Juwan: No loss is the same. And that was certainly the case to be made for the Cowboys last week in New Orleans. Despite the offense appearing to revert back to their 2018 form, people will argue this wasn’t a case of poor play from Dak Prescott. And I agree. It’s not a coincidence the past two outings without Michael Gallup has looked subpar at times. I don’t expect Gallup to immediately return to his regular form, but having another capable receiver on the field will allow Prescott to stretch the field a bit more. More importantly, Green Bay presents a perfect opportunity for a bounce back game for Ezekiel Elliott. The Packers’ past three opponents have had their way on the ground and I expect nothing less from this Cowboys’ offense. Last week might of given some cause to pause, but the ability to run the ball combined with the absence of Devante Adams gives me confidence that Dallas will pull this one out. Dallas 28, Green Bay 20.

EA: It has been an interesting week for the world of the Dallas Cowboys. After getting the first loss of the season, the team went back to work trying to figure out whether or not this team just had an off night or are there actual problems with this team. Tough they stand at 3-1, this weeks game against the Packers stands as a must win. Why? The division race has tightened and the schedule gets harder down the stretch. But have the Cowboys solved their offensive issues? Will injuries slow this team down? I see improvement this week, but it’s still going to be bad week. Give me the Packers 21 to 17.

Dylan: This importance of this game can’t be understated for both sides. The difference between a 4-1 record and a 3-2 record is so much more than just the one win/loss difference that it shows. Both the Cowboys and Packers have that situation in front of them and I definitely think their play will reflect that. While the Dallas offense took a major step back last week in New Orleans, I expect them to come out firing with more creative play calling and a better run/pass mix to maximize the impact of both options.  Defensively, it’s still impossible to take Aaron Rodgers lightly when he comes into AT&T Stadium even if he’s not quite what he once was. If there’s anything we’ve learned over the years, no Cowboys lead is safe when number 12 is under center for the Packers.  I think Dallas will have to make a stop late in the game to secure this win at home. One of these days they’ll be able to do it against Rodgers, right? I’ll predict that day is today. Cowboys 28-Packers 24
