The 5-3 Dallas Cowboys host the 6-3 Minnesota Vikings on Sunday.

Defensively, the Cowboys have recorded seven takeaways in the past two games and need another dominant performance against the Vikings. Dallas’ defense has to create pressure on Kirk Cousins in the pocket and get off blocks quickly to prevent Dalvin Cook from finding a seam and sneaking to the next level. That will be a difficult task with Gary Kubiak’s outside-zone run scheme that benefits the team’s featured back and the NFL’s leading rusher in week nine.
