Amari Cooper is going to be a challenge for Desir. But, he did hold Deandre Hopkins to 4 catches on 10 targets for 26 yards. Deandre Hopkins is currently the 9th best receiver in the league, while cooper is 39th.

Cooper has 4 games over 100 yards, and 4 games over 10 catches (2 games over 180 yards, one with Oakland). With the exception of his first game in Dallas (a loss to the Titans), the Cowchickens have won every game since.

He exploded last week vs Philly, catching 10 of 13 of 217 yards and 3 tds. Granted Philly is the 30th ranked defense against the pass, and Indy is 14th vs the pass.

What does Eberflus do here, make sure the guy gets chipped at the line, have a safety spotlight cooper to help Desir?

If we can somehow shut down cooper, I like our chances better against stopping Ezekiel Elliot. The Cowboys have only won two games when Elliot is held under 100 yards. That's a bit of a bullshit stat because any team with a 100 yard rusher is likely to win, but it is what it is.

I don't think Prescott is as much a threat rushing as he used to be, and that is a direct result of the quality of Dallas' OL going down. The only time Prescott rushed for more than 80 yards was their inexplicable 40-7 loss to the Jaguars.

So if we can shut down cooper and bring pressure against the run we have a solid chance.

I'm concerned about Glowinski being out, but hopefully Kelly's return and our depth will offset missing a starter on OL.
