The way that I see it

The Cowboys are playing pretty good football right now especially on defense, they get to the quarterback better than any other team in the league and they are now starting to force turnovers much like they did last year getting 5 in the second half alone in last week's game against the Lions. Now they get the Bears at home only problem is they'll see a lot more RPO plays from Justin Fields and company and that has always given the Cowboys fits. On top of that the Cowboys have a few players that are hurt and it looks like Zeke won't play and all world Micah Parsons has a shoulder injury and Sam Williams who is a poor man's Micah Parsons is bothered by a knee issue. On offense, I see more of the same to protect the ball and burn the clock with the run game so I see a big day coming for Pollard who will carry the load. I like the Cowboys in this one but not by much, they're favored by ten but I don't think they'll cover.

Cowboys 20
Bears 16
 
Don't forget Malik Hooker and Noah Brown have missed practices this week with injuries as well. The Cowboys are already thin at WR. If Brown can't go it makes it that much worse. I think Hooker is the unsung hero of the defense. Every week he gives them a steady presence in the secondary. Remember when we have Xavier Woods or KaZee taking bad angles and missing tackles on big plays? Hooker has ended all that. If he can't play this week it will be a huge loss.

I am still worried about the offense which seems to struggle early with Dak. They can't allow teams like Detroit and Chicago to stay close. Teams like that get more confident the longer they are in the game.

The Bears can run the football, but the Giants can run the football too. The Cowboys beat the Giants. But if the Cowboys keep the Bears in the game and the Bears stick with the run, I do think they can give the Cowboys a scare.
 
Just find a way to win. Get into the bye week and get healthy.

Sad to see what has become of this fan base.

You're playing a bad team at home. Kick their bleeping bleeps.

And before you respond, you know who would agree with me? Every one of your heroes in this team's history. Including that guy in the hat.
