The Dallas Cowboys will look to bounce back from their season-opening loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday when they meet Justin Herbert and the Los Angeles Chargers. Dak Prescott's shoulder has held up well, and he is expected to be a full go on Sunday.
Meanwhile, the Chargers will attempt to keep the train rolling after an opening week victory. The AFC West is undefeated at the moment, so it will be up to the Chargers to keep pace with the rest of the division. Head coach and defensive coordinator Brandon Staley is going to have his hands full with the Cowboys' offense, though.
