The Cowboys (2-3) will try to maintain their position atop the NFC East a week after losing quarterback Dak Prescott for the season in a devastating injury last week. In his place, however, is former Bengals starter Andy Dalton who brings plenty of experience to help steady the ship. Dalton has plenty of weapons to pass to in Michael Gallop, CeeDee Lamb and Amari Cooper, but offensive coordinator Kellen Moore may opt to run heavy with Ezekiel Elliot instead.

The Cardinals (3-2) have been a bit of a mixed bag this season with an impressive win over a healthy San Francisco team in Week 1 but also two surprise losses to Detroit and Carolina. Kyler Murray has looked impressive at times in Year 2 with his new wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins who leads the league in both receptions (45) and receiving yards (528). Arizona was delt a major blow this week learning the All-Pro pass-rusher Chandler Jones is done for the season with a biceps injury.
The teams haven’t met since 2017 when Dallas defeated Arizona 28-17. The game is particularly important for the Cowboys to find their footing before two-straight games against divisional opponents followed by a matchup with undefeated Pittsburgh.
