While the Dallas Cowboys deal with the aftermath of a tough personal loss and plan for a tribute, they also have to prepare for a game. And here are the Cowboys’ bold predictions for the Week 11 Monday Night Football clash against the Raiders.
The Cowboys enter with a record of 3-5-1 and will be playing their first game since the death of defensive lineman Marshawn Kneeland. They will visit the Raiders, who have a record of 2-7.
This is going to be a game where the Cowboys’ offense cuts loose and doesn’t stop until they’ve hit 45 points. Prescott should have a field day.
Coming off an embarrassing loss to the Cardinals and wanting to get off to a good start after the major trade deadline moves, the Cowboys should destroy the hapless Raiders.
It will set things back in order for Prescott, according to ESPN.
“Dak Prescott is in a little bit of a rut by his own standards,” Fields Yates said. “It would not surprise me at all if the Cowboys are able to move the football very effectively against the Raiders.”
Prescott is still having a standout season, and there are many reasons why he’ll hurt the Raiders, according to raiders.com.
“I think he has an underrated arm,” Eric Allen said. “And one of the things this veteran quarterback has been able to do is freeze guys with his eyes and where his head is. There’s not much … Dak Prescott can’t do with the football. Just a great leader. And he has really turned into a magnificent quarterback. Dak Prescott is playing some of the best football of his career.”
There’s always a chance Jeany gets loose for one long run and maybe sneaks past 40 yards. But he will have a steady diet of 1 yard, minus 1, no gain, minus 1, 2 yards, etc.
With new defender Quinnen Williams in the mix, the Cowboys will chew the Raiders’ run game up and spit it out. Head coach Brian Schottenheimer said he’s excited about what the team is putting on the field after the trades, according to dallascowboys.com.

“It’s exciting,” Schottenheimer said. “Kudos to Jerry and Stephen, Will, being aggressive but then smart. A couple of moves we made, you’re getting guys not just for this year but beyond, which I think is great. I think it’s two terrific players, but also terrific young men.”
It should be a different defensive line for the rest of the season.
“I think it’s just going to add more playmaking ability to the d-line,” OSA Odighizuwa said. “Another bullet in the gun. Another bullet in the gun, another very strong and talented guy, so I think we’ll be able to use him. I’m excited. Another guy that’s going to help us win.”
