Is it saying a lot that Joseph Randle will have a career game this Sunday when the Dallas Cowboys host the Atlanta Falcons in what is sure to be the Cowboys’ toughest game to date considering the odds facing “America’s Team” this weekend?

They have to make a backup the starting quarterback with Tony Romo out for eight weeks. The Cowboys have Dez Bryant on the bench for the next few weeks with his injury, and there are others not in the lineup who are either injured or suspended.

Even with all of that going against them, the Cowboys still have a slight chance to move to 3-0 on the season, but it will take a lot of teamwork – near perfection – and some luck to do so. The 2-0 Falcons are no joke, and with Matt Ryan and Julio Jones leading the charge, it could be a long, tough day for the Cowboys this Sunday.

But that’s what makes predictions exciting: they are things we might want to happen, could happen or most likely won’t happen depending on how creative we get.

That’s how I view these predictions … fun, hopefully somewhat excitingm and most of all creative, but achievable to a certain degree. Some of these predictions might be easier to occur, while other predictions might make you think I’m a bit crazy, but hopefully you think they are creative and out of the box a little bit.

Here are five predictions, with maybe some more predictions within predictions, for Sunday’s matchup between the Cowboys and the Falcons, which has a 1 p.m. ET (noon CT) kickoff on FOX.
