The Dallas Cowboys rank fourth in total points scored at 29 points per game. Las Vegas Raiders rank second-to-last at just 15 points per game. On third down, the Raiders defense ranks 28th at 45% conversion rate allowed, as opposed to Dallas where the offense ranks sixth at 43%.
So the Cowboys defense. Sure, things look bad this season, but they have DeMarvion Overshown coming back, Shavon Revel Jr. ready to make an appearance, and there’s the two trades made to help in the run defense and coverage. The arrows pointing up here this week.
Cowboys win 31-21.
