The Cowboys have their toughest test of the season on Sunday, and have several QTNA staring them in the face.

Kicking range, motion change among 3 QTNA Cowboys have vs 49ers

The Dallas Cowboys and San Francisco 49ers are set to face off in a crucial Week 10 matchup, with both teams struggling with injuries and offensive adjustments. The 49ers, led by head coach Kyle Shanahan, have a 7-1 record but are missing key players like Quinnen Williams, Brandin Cooks, and Keenan Allen, who could start at receiver.

Meanwhile, Dallas is dealing with Jalen Thompson's absence and the potential return of defenders like Joey Porter Jr. and DeMarvion Overshown. The Cowboys also appear to be struggling with their motion offense, which has significantly declined, and their defense has been giving up a high EPA per play against motion, ranking last in the NFL.

Additionally, kicker Brandon Aubrey's declining accuracy on kicks over 50 yards has raised concerns, as his field goal percentage has dropped below 80%. The Cowboys will need their remaining defenders to step up and their offense to maintain consistency in using the motion offense to compete with the 49ers.
