Looking at points per game Dallas defense is ranked #2 allowing only 17.2, we are 8th as we are allowing 20.8

Of course we had the Saints game as an outlier of 43.

This is going to be a defensive game, and I think key turnovers (in either team's redzone) will be the difference. Dallas has 6 takeaways in 6 games, we have 9 in 5 games.

Also Special teams will be highlighted. I don't really know if either team has an edge here, but it could come down to a great or terrible special teams play.

Bottomline, I trust this defense against a fairly one dimensional Dallas attack. With no Witten their TE's aren't nearly as much a factor.

I think Kerrigan gets a big play, possibly a pick six or fumble recovery.

My worry is our OL vs their DL, AS will need his best checkdown eyes as he isn't going to have the time to throw that long developing plays.
