The Cincinnati Bengals are headed to Texas to take on The Dallas Cowboys. Both teams started off the season with a loss and both will be looking to avoid that dreaded 0-2 start.
The Cowboys have probably the most impactful injury in the NFL after quarterback Dak Prescott broke his thumb and will be out for this week. That means the Bengals defense will see a similar plan from the Cowboys that they saw from the Pittsburgh Steelers last week. Plenty of running the ball with Ezekiel Elliott and Tony Pollard to limit the amount backup quarterback Cooper Rush has to make a play.
The offense needs to pull its weight this week after giving the ball away five times. Joe Burrow and company started to turn things around in the second half. They even put the team in position to win the game twice. Maybe if Cincinnati wasn’t on their backup long snapper they could have pulled it out.

Still, it seems the recipe for a win this week is easy. Don’t turn the ball over, take what the defense gives you and let your defense go dominate again.
