5 bold predictions for Cowboys against Chiefs
1. Dak Prescott will throw for over 400 yards
Prescott didn’t need to work that hard to defeat Atlanta last week. That will change in a big way on Sunday. The Cowboys need their star quarterback to be at his best if they’re going to halt Kansas City’s three-game winning streak.
Fortunately for Prescott, he’s got a ton of high-quality weapons at his disposal. CeeDee Lamb and Amari Cooper can both put up big numbers against Kansas City’s secondary. Perhaps more importantly, Dallas has the requisite talent up front to give Prescott plenty of time to throw the football without pressure coming his way.
Add it all up and it’s a recipe for a big game for Prescott. He’ll throw the ball early and often. 400 passing yards should be a comfortably attainable goal for him on the day. The more important number for Cowboys fans to watch will be Prescott’s interception total.
He can afford to turn the ball over once given the sheer volume of throws he’ll be forced to make, but anything higher than that could turn the tide in favor of Kansas City. No matter what, Prescott’s yardage total will be impressive when the game is said and done.
