Week 4: Vs Detroit Lions 1:00 PM ET—FOX

Dallas returns home to face always dangerous Matthew Stafford and the Detroit Lions. I think this game will be a shootout, with the Cowboys coming out on top.

Final Score: Cowboys 34 Lions 28 (3-1)

Week 5: At Houston Texans 8:20 PM ET—NBC

The Cowboys travel to take on the in-state rival Houston Texans and a healthy Deshaun Watson. I think the both defenses will step up this game, but Sean Lee and the Dallas defense makes a play at the end of the game, giving the Cowboys the win.

Final Score: Cowboys 17 Texans 16 (4-1)

Week 6: Vs Jacksonville Jaguars 4:25 PM ET—CBS

The Jaguars come to Dallas in week 6, and I think this will be a tough matchup for the Cowboys. Allen Hurns will play well in his first game against his former team, but the Jacksonville defense is just too much for Dallas to handle.

Final Score: Jaguars 20 Cowboys 13 (4-2)

Week 7: At Washington Redskins 4:25 PM ET—CBS

Just their second division game in week 7, the Cowboys travel to Washington to take on Alex Smith and the new look Redskins. Dallas has not lost a game in Washington since 2012, and I think this streak comes to an end, as Alex Smith plays great and hands Dallas its second straight loss.

Final Score: Redskins 27 Cowboys 20 (4-3)

Week 8; BYE

Week 9: Vs Tennessee Titans 8:15 PM ET—ESPN

The Cowboys return well rested after the bye, and absolutely beat up on a young Tennessee Titans team led by Marcus Mariota.

Final Score: Cowboys 34 Titans 14 (5-3)

Week 10: At Philadelphia Eagles 8:20 PM ET—NBC

The Cowboys get their first shot against the defending Super Bowl champion Eagles in week 10, and in primetime against the champs, Dallas led by Dak Prescott’s record setting day come to play.

Final Score: Cowboys 27 Eagles 21 (6-3)

Week 11: At Atlanta Falcons 1:00 PM ET—FOX

For the second straight year, Dallas travels to Atlanta, and will try to make up for the blowout that sent their season on a downward spiral last year. This time, Chaz Green dosen’t start, and the Cowboys serve some payback to the Falcons.

Final Score: Cowboys 26 Falcons 24 (7-3)
