Cowboys have a chance to respond in Indianapolis
How optimistic are you for this week’s game?
The Dallas Cowboys face an opportunity to turn things around in Indianapolis on Sunday. The Cowboys suffered a close 33-30 overtime defeat to Arizona, but the Indianapolis Colts are currently struggling severely. The Colts have lost six of their last seven games, with their last four defeats coming by a total of 66 points. Additionally, they recently traded away two of their best veteran players, further weakening their roster.
Indianapolis' quarterback Daniel Jones has been inconsistent, throwing more interceptions than touchdowns this season and being sacked multiple times. The Colts rank last in the NFL with a minus-11 turnover differential. The Cowboys, on the other hand, recently dismantled Arizona, producing five sacks and two takeaways, which could be a blueprint for success against a weaker Indianapolis team.
The Colts' defense has been particularly vulnerable, allowing a high number of points and yards per play. With key players traded away, the Colts may lack the offensive line and defensive disruption they once had. Dallas' defense has shown promise recently, and the team has a strong history of overcoming adversity against the Colts.
If the Cowboys can replicate their strong fourth-quarter performance against Arizona, they could secure a much-needed victory in Indianapolis.
