"The Dallas Cowboys head into Mile High Stadium today in a game that carries a mix of urgency, opportunity, and history. The Cowboys, sitting at 3-3-1, have flashed brilliance on offense but inconsistency on defense, particularly after a wave of injuries in the secondary. Meanwhile, the Denver Broncos have ridden the steady hand of QB Bo Nix and a stingy defense to a 5-2 start, becoming one of the AFC's surprise contenders."
"This prediction borders on wishful thinking given the Cowboys' current state in the secondary. Dallas will be without Trevon Diggs, Donovan Wilson, Malik Hooker, and Juanyeh Thomas, all key playmakers on the back end. That leaves relative unknowns Alijah Clark and Markquese Bell to start at safety, and their inexperience will certainly be tested by the poised rookie Nix. Still, Dallas has surprisingly fielded a pass rush that can turn any quarterback human this season despite Micah Parsons no longer on the team."
The Cowboys enter a road game at Mile High at 3-3-1 with an explosive offense and an injury-depleted secondary that has produced defensive inconsistency. The Broncos sit 5-2 behind rookie QB Bo Nix and a stingy defense, emerging as an AFC surprise. Dallas seeks to end a winless run in Denver that dates to 1992-1995 and needs unexpected, difference-making contributions from backups and depth players. One bold scenario envisions reserve safeties or DaRon Bland forcing a key interception after timely pass-rush pressure. Another scenario predicts the Cowboys' offense surpassing 400 yards if the defense contains Denver's attack.
