The Chicago Bears face the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday, looking to avoid starting the season 0-3. Chicago’s defense is banged up and will be without CB Jaylon Johnson, LB T.J. Edwards, and CB Kyler Gordon. That likely means a shootout, putting pressure on Caleb Williams and the offense to keep pace with Dak Prescott and the Cowboys. With that in mind, here are five bold predictions for this must-win matchup.
Caleb Williams throws for 350+ yards
Williams has yet to break the 300-yard mark, but the Cowboys defense is ranked 29th by PFF, while the Bears defense sits at 30th. This feels like the perfect opportunity for him to break out.
