The Dallas Cowboys (3-2) head to MetLife Stadium to take on the winless New York Jets (0-4).

Can the Cowboys bounce back from two consecutive losses or will the New York pick up their first win of the year on Sunday?

The offensive woes continued for the winless New York Jets, who are reeling from a 31-6 loss to the Eagles. Luke Falk threw for a mere 120 yards and tossed two interceptions. Sam Darnold is set to return after a bout with Mono that has sidelined him over the last month. Le’Veon Bell rushed for 43 yards and added 45 more yards receiving. New York managed only nine first downs and struggled on third down with three of 14 conversions.
The Jets have the tough task of going against the No. 1 ranked offense in the NFL. Despite losing the last two weeks, the Cowboys are averaging 452.8 YPG with an average of 312 of those coming through the air (fourth in the NFL). New York’s defense had just one sack against the Eagles but limited their offense to just 265 total yards. Neville Hewitt notched 11 tackles, while Quinnen Williams, Blake Cashman and Marcus Maye each had five tackles.
Cowboy fans are wondering where their offense went in the last two games. After starting out 3-0, Dallas has lost 12-10 on the road in New Orleans and 34-24 at home against the Packers this past weekend. Dak Prescott threw for 463 yards and two touchdowns, but also was sacked three times and had three interceptions, which cost the team the game. Ezekiel Elliott picked up his fourth rushing touchdown in five games. Wide receivers Amari Cooper and Michael Gallup put up monster numbers of 226 yards and 113 yards, respectively, while each scored one touchdown.
Defensively, it wasn’t Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers that won the game, rather running back Aaron Jones. Jones had 19 carries for 107 yards and four touchdowns plus seven catches for 75 yards. Luckily for the Cowboys defense, the Jets have had trouble getting the ball in the endzone in any game this season. Leighton Vander Esch led the team with nine tackles and Xavier Woods picked up seven. Dallas ranks in the top 10 defensively in points allowed, total yards allowed, and passing yards per game.
