Cardinals vs Cowboys Preview
The Cardinals are coming off a 30-10 stomping of the New York Jets last week. The win ended their two-game skid, and it came at a time when their young signal-caller is about to play at one of his favorite stadiums of all-time.
Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray is 6-0 at AT&T Stadium, and he has a golden opportunity to keep his streak alive. “He obviously likes that stadium and has had a lot of success there,” Arizona coach Kliff Kingsbury said this week. “This is what he’s worked hard for his entire life, to have moments like this. I know he’s excited to go out there and try to put his best foot forward.”
For his part, Murray seems to have a keen grasp on the situation. “Obviously, every weekend is a great opportunity. This is another one. Going back home, playing in Dallas, it’s obviously a big game for us on Monday Night in front of everybody. Obviously have to stay composed, play my game, play our game, execute at a high level in order to win,” the Cardinals quarterback said.
Arizona is averaging 25.6 points a game, and they’ve been stingy on defense, giving up just over 20 points a game. Dallas is currently the league’s best offense, but the 488 yards and 33.6 points they’re averaging per game will likely change drastically without the presence of Dak Prescott. With their leader out, look for Ezekiel Elliott to carry the load more than ever for the Cowboys — although team owner Jerry Jones doesn’t seem to think Dalton’s play will determine the team’s date.
“If we don’t reach where we want to go ultimately- and the ultimate success is to win the championship, it will not be because of Andy Dalton. It will not be because of our play at quarterback. He’s capable of stepping in and playing at that level,” Jones said this week.
On the injury front, Arizona will be without linebacker Kylie Fitts, and both Devon Kennard and Dennis Gardeck are questionable, so Dalton could see a good deal of success attacking a banged-up corps of Cardinals linebackers. Losing Prescott was the biggest blow the team took, but the Cowboys could be getting a huge piece of their defense back this week if Leighton Vander Esch returns — and his outlook for returning is good, per head coach Mike McCarthy. After losing their leader on offense, it wouldn’t hurt to have one of their leaders on defense back.
