In a very pivotal Week 11 matchup, Dak Prescott and the Cowboys visit the Chiefs who ride a three game win streak. Dak has had an exceptional year and has them in 1st in the NFC East. The Chiefs on the other side, blew out Las Vegas in Primetime 41-14 last week. Mahomes threw 5 touchdowns with a side of 400+ passing yards. This game in Arrowhead is going to be a quarterback matchup and undoubtedly a thriller on Sunday afternoon.
The Cowboys are coming off a crazy win at home. They beat Atlanta 43-3 and had a fantastic overall performance. They look really dangerous unlike last year and look dominant. CeeDee Lamb has had an explosive year till now and has been their number one receiver. He is going to get a heavy workload as Amari Cooper is on the COVID list. This team has had a lot of high scoring games and have 5 games of 35 or more points scored. It is hard to stop their offense and can tire out the defense. In addition to their stellar offense, their defense has had an outstanding year. Cornerback Trevon Diggs has been breathtaking so far in the year. He has 8 interceptions and two pick sixes which means Mahomes is going to have to be very careful when he is in coverage. He has made so many great plays and is doing his part in their success. This Cowboy team looks splendid so far and will cause problems for the Super Bowl finalists here at Kansas City.
We finally got to see the Chiefs that we are used to seeing last week against Vegas. Mahomes couldn’t have been better and was fun to watch in that game. He had his 1st 400+ passing yards game of the season and led the offense to a big win. They converted most of their 3rd downs and the offense had no turnovers. I think they have the same game plan and mindset going into this one as they just want to repeat what they did on Sunday Night. This is a test for the defense as Prescott’s offense is having a diamond season so far. I’m sure Kelce will get a lot of catches and yards since the deep route is shut off for them. Another piece of good news for Kansas City is that their RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire is back from injury which should be better for the running game. The Chiefs are in hot form as of lately and face a big test in the Dallas Cowboys.
I believe the Chiefs are going to win 34-31. Once they get going, they are hard to stop and everyone plays better. 4 different receivers caught touchdowns in that game and the passing was spread between many receivers. What I really like about Dallas is their two running backs. Not many teams have two really good running backs. Ezekiel Elliot is as good as always but Tony Pollard has caught my eye. He is splitting the role with Zeke and has gotten a lot of yards this year. That really helps them to have two running backs to rely on, not just one.
This game is the best of Week 11, what will it offer? Will we see the Chiefs that we saw last week or the Chiefs that we saw in the Super Bowl? Can Patrick Mahomes make it four in a row or will the Dallas Cowboys stop the Chief’s momentum that they have? We will find out at 4:25 EST at Arrowhead Stadium, the home of KC.
