Dak has the ability to make things happen on the ground and I was a big Allen Hurns fan. I personally believe he is a big upgrade over Dez at this point in their careers. I'm not saying I think we'll lose that game, but it's one of those match ups that I see as a potential "trap game" for us. 

As far as the Titans, Mariota just isn't great passer. He needs a solid running game and I see Derrick Henry as a complimentary goal line rusher only. DeMarco Murray was the feature runner and they no longer have that. That was a huge part of their offense and I just don't see them being the same.
Titans also picked up Dion Lewis who will be a very good 3rd down back. Murray was absolutely dreadful so losing him is a positive for them. Their backfield is better this year than last year.

Cowboys have a great OLine and Zeke is amazing but I’m not worried about Hurns at all. Our DLine is deeper than last year and the secondary is still the best in the league. I think Hurns struggles in Dallas and I see the Cowboys around 8-8 or 7-9.

I still don't see Henry as a good feature back and I'm not really a fan of Dion Lewis. Again, the Titans don't worry me at all. I think Hurns turns out to be the Cowboys #1 receiver option this year, if he's healthy. With that said, he should be a #2. They really missed out on adding a true #1 receiver in the draft. I also believe it will come down to the Cowboys and Washington for second place in the division, behind the Eagles, so I'm gonna give the Cowboys a 9-7 or 8-8 record. Again, I don't believe we will necessarily lose to the Cowboys, but it could be a "trap game," if we aren't careful.
