Ranking the Cowboys’ 5 primetime games on 2022 NFL schedule
2. Week 13 vs Colts – Sunday Night Football
The Colts will now be led by former Atlanta Falcons QB Matt Ryan and are going to want revenge all year after losing out on the playoffs last year at the hands of the Jacksonville Jaguars. This midseason matchup will be a test to see how prepared the Cowboys are when a formidable opponent comes to town.
A questionable Cowboys offensive line is going to have its hands full with an incredibly strong Colts defense. Their squad includes defensive masters like Darius Leonard, DeForest Buckner, Yannick, Ngakoue, and Stephon Gilmore.
Thankfully, the Cowboys do have an edge given that their defensive coordinator Dan Quinn was Matt Ryan’s head coach for many years. However, if the Cowboys figure out how to stop Ryan, the Colts can always hand the ball to their star running back Jonathan Taylor who is an absolute monster of a rusher.
This will be a big test for both the Cowboys’ offensive and defensive squads. Winning this game can help prove that Dallas doesn’t just win against NFC East teams.
