Dallas Cowboys vs. Los Angeles Chargers Prediction
Dallas enters play after being embarrassed on Sunday Night Football by the San Francisco 49ers last week.
The Cowboys entered as a three-point underdog and proceeded to lose the game 42-10.
Dak Prescott has one of the worst games of his career. The veteran signal-caller threw for just 153 yards and three interceptions.
The run game was virtually nonexistent, as the team rushed for just 57 yards.
CeeDee Lamb was held to just 49 yards in the losing effort. Lamb was vocal about wanting to be used more after the loss.

Los Angeles will be in play with a 2-2 record on the season.
Los Angeles has not played since October 1st after a bye in week five.

Dallas Cowboys vs. Los Angeles Chargers Pick
Dallas will bounce back after a horrific showing a week ago.
This is a Dallas team that is much better than what we saw from them vs. San Francisco, and they match up well with the Chargers.
The Chargers rank dead last in forkball in passing yards allowed per game (299.8). That is 30 yards worse than the next closest defense.
Prescott will be able to throw the football with success, and the Dallas defense will return to form and limit this Chargers offense.
