2. Vs Cowboys

The Arizona Cardinals get their chance to play one of the hottest teams in the NFL

In 2016 the Cowboys emerged as one of the best teams in the NFL. They earned the #1 seed and a first round bye in the playoffs, but ended up losing to Aaron Rodgers and Co. The biggest keys to the Cowboys success were rookie sensations Ezekiel Elliot and Dak Prescott. Now the Cardinals get their chance at the Boys, and its going to be a huge battle.

The Cardinals and Cowboys have produced some memorable games in the past. Of the last 4 games they have played each other in, 2 have gone to overtime. The Cowboys haven’t beaten Arizona since 2006.

A big match up in this game will be the Cardinals pass rush against a top offensive line, and the NFL’s leading rusher. Add in the Peterson on Dez Bryant matchup and it makes this a must watch.

Prediction: 31-24 Cardinals
