Dallas’ high-flying offense faces Cleveland’s stingy defense
Sunday afternoon’s showdown in Cleveland between the Dallas Cowboys and the host Browns in Week 1 is historic.
It’s the only the second Week 1 matchup between the NFL’s No. 1 scoring offense and the NFL’s No. 1 total defense since the 1970 NFL/AFL merger. The Cowboys’ led the league with 29.9 points per game, and the Browns led the league in total defense allowing 270.2 total yards per game, the fewest since the 2014 Legion of Boom Seattle Seahawks. Sunday will assuredly be a strength versus strength matchup when the 2023 NFL passing touchdowns leader Dak Prescott and 2023 NFL receptions leader CeeDee Lamb take the field against 2023 NFL Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett and Pro Bowl cornerback Denzel Ward.
Let’s break it all down and predict a winner.
