Prediction: The Dallas Cowboys running game is going to continue where it left off against the Chicago Bears. Ezekiel Elliott and company will pick up right where they left off against a 49ers defense that has been suspect against the zone cutbacks in the run game.

I expect to see Zeke get his second straight 100+ yard performance, and the other backs will be involved heavily in all phases of the game as well.

I also expect the Cowboys defense to continue it’s streak of turnovers and get to San Francisco quarterback Blaine Gabbert for a season high four sacks. The front four have struggled to get pressure on opposing quarterbacks but this could change this week in San Francisco.

Dak Prescott will continue to shine, and the Cowboys will move to 3-1 on the season, down by the Bay!

Final Score: Dallas Cowboys 31, San Francisco 49ers 20
