5 Dallas Cowboys the Atlanta Falcons must watch closely in week 10

5. Dak Prescott is coming off one of the worst games of his career which is bad news for the Atlanta Falcons

Facing a quarterback coming off of the worst performance we have seen should scare the Falcons defense. Dak is too good of a quarterback to have another game like he did last week, especially against a struggling Atlanta defense.

Finding an edge against Dak is difficult outside of one great corner who do you trust to get in Dak’s way? The Atlanta pass rush has been anemic and struggled to have any consistency. If they can find a way to get to Dak while covering as Denver did Dak will continue to struggle.

However, this is a pipe dream for an Atlanta defense that is in the middle of a rebuild. The best Atlanta can help for here is that Dak is struggling and remains in a slump for one more week.

Dak is arguably the second-best quarterback Atlanta will face behind Tom Brady. This is a chance for Ryan to go toe-to-toe with one of the better quarterbacks in the NFC. One the Atlanta defense must at least slow if the Falcons want a chance to win this game.
