Dallas Cowboys: 3 Bold predictions vs. Raiders in Week 15

The Dallas Cowboys are back on Sunday Night Football, and as they go on the road to face the Oakland Raiders. Here are three bold predictions for the Boys.

Somehow and some way, the Dallas Cowboys have managed to keep their name in the NFC Wild Card mix. It isn’t going to be any easier with them being the 10th-place team in the NFC team entering Week 15, as they are tied with the Green Bay Packers and the Detroit Lions with a 7-6 record, and they trail the Seattle Seahawks, who are 8-5. The two Wild Card leaders are the Carolina Panthers (9-4) and Atlanta Falcons (8-5)

A lot can and will happen between Week 15 and the end of the regular season, and for this Sunday night in primetime the Cowboys must not only defeat the Raiders, but hope others ahead of them suffer losses so they can close the game for a potential layoff chance.

Predicting how the Cowboys will play is another factor for this week with this being the final game of the six-game suspension of Ezekiel Elliott. At times the Cowboys have played well, and other times the games have been forgettable.

The Cowboys have an excellent chance to gain momentum against a Raiders team that hasn’t performed based on preseason hype, and at 6-7 overall they too are still playing for their playoff lives as the ninth-ranked team in the AFC.

This should be a battle between two of the most popular franchises in the NFL, and with kickoff arriving this Sunday night, here are three bold predictions for the Cowboys in Week 15.
