Defensively, contain Austin Eckler in the passing game. As a pass catcher he is up there with CMC and Kamara. We need to find a way to limit what he does in the passing game.

Diggs has to remain on Keenan Allen. Anthony Brown will have his hands full with Mike Williams, hopefully they will give him help. While he won't likely dominate, he will get loose for a couple of jump balls, and that's going to be difficult for AB to stop. Hooker can make a difference rolling over to help.

Offensively if Steele is getting beat on I hope we will adjust and put Martin at tackle. Obviously Zeke and the run game would be huge. We really need to control the clock and keep Herbert off the field. If Dak throws the ball 50 times we are in trouble. This is Zekes chance to reestablish himself. The question is can he?

On special teams field position killed us again last week. We need more out of this unit. Stop fielding balls within the 5 yard line and make the damn easy field goals.

This game is winnable, but Quin will need to have a great game plan to overcome the loss of our DEs. Account for Eckler, help AB, let Diggs shine, and show us 2016 Zeke. If those things happen we will all have a lovely Sunday.

I like it!
 
I think you see Diggs follow Williams. Allen plays more than 50% of his snaps from the slot. Expect Lewis on him for a majority of the day.

Evans was 6’5 and Williams is 6’4.

Yeah good point. I doubt Diggs shadows. I think Lewis does a fairly good job in the slot. What we don't want is Allen going outside vs AB. That is a match up they will exploit.
 
Run the ball and score touchdowns when you get inside the 20. This is going to be up to the offense to win this game.

Quite frankly, I disagree with the general sentiment that Dallas is in trouble here. If Dallas is walking into this game as the lesser team, the Cowboys aren't very good. For all of the talk of super bowl on this site, you would think that there would be a lot more confidence going into a game against the Chargers.
