survived their Week 8 game against the Minnesota Vikings (+5) by a final score of 20-16. They did that without Dak Prescott, and his status caused the betting lines to jump around all week prior to the game. When it was thought he was going to play, the Cowboys were favored by a few points over the Vikings, but by the end of the week the Vikings had jumped out to three-point favorites.
This week, the expectation would be that Dak is back given that he looked good in warmups before the game and the Cowboys waited until game time to decide his status.
