Dallas Cowboys: 3 Bold predictions in Week 10 vs. Atlanta

Dallas Cowboys prediction No. 1: Ezekiel Elliott rumbles for 150, 3 TDs

In Week 9, Ezekiel Elliott was running well but he didn’t get very many opportunities since the game was out of hand rather quickly. He finished with 51 yards but had just 10 rushes on the day. That should change this week since the Cowboys will likely try and re-establish the run game — and it should be something they can accomplish given the Falcons’ struggles in run defense this year.

In their first eight games, Atlanta has surrendered 985 yards which is 24th in the NFL. Elliott enters this contest with 622 yards and five touchdowns while averaging nearly five yards per rushing attempt.

Clearly, he’s still got plenty in the tank despite the struggles he had last season. Look for him to continue his resurgence tour as he runs all over the Falcons to the tune of at least 150 yards rushing and three touchdowns.

While that will get the fans fired up, the most important thing is that they don’t start trending in the wrong direction. Dallas could use a win here to keep from letting any doubt creep in.

Leaning heavily on their stars is a way to ensure that happens and Zeke leads the way in this prediction.
