Have you been waiting all offseason for Sunday night? We
have. In the first Sunday Night Football matchup of the
2020 NFL season, the travel to Los Angeles to help the
open SoFi Stadium, which, of course, Jerry Jones had a
hand in helping get built.This is one of the marquee
games of the weekend, with two teams that narrowly mi sed
out on the playoffs last season looking to get off to a
better start this year. With all the offensive talent on
both shirts">Miami Heat T-Shirts sides of the ball and
the two teams being among the fastest-paced in football,
there is potential for some fireworks -- even with stars
peppering the defenses as well.Let's break things
down.How to watchDate:Sunday, Dec. 13 |Time:8:20 p.m.

Cowboys have the ballIt's best to consider the Cowboys
offense in terms of what is the same, and what is
different. Dallas returns eight of its 11 offensive
starters from last season, but seems to have downgraded
at only one of the three positions: center, where will
replace the retired . Dallas was able to survive without
Frederick two years ago when he mi sed the season due to
Guillan-Barre Syndrome but the Cowboys weren't also
dealing with the absence of right tackle , as they will
be this week after Collins went on injured reserve due to
his bothersome hip. At this point, we don't really know
who will start in place of Collins, whether it be
presumed swing tackle (supposedly struggling in camp) or
one of their unproven street free agents, or .Whichever
of them gets the start on the right side, they'll
presumably get some help in the form of chips from tight
end (replacing , who signed with the ), as well as and/or
. It helps that the strength of the Rams push rush is up
the middle, as opposed to on the edge. is a solid
supplementary rusher but not nece sarily a game-wrecker,
while has not lived up to his lofty draft status during
his four years in the league. should handle one of those
two players with relative ease, allowing the Cowboys to
have one of the tight ends or backs (or even ) provide
some help to the right tackle. Inside, is the main
threat, but shouldn't go overlooked. I would expect
Donald to work over left guard as opposed to Martin, the
better to get him freer paths into the Dallas backfield.
He's a nightmare and that matchup will put incredible pre
sure on both Williams and Looney, but with Dallas'
outside-zone based running scheme, they may also be able
to take occasional advantage of Donald's (usually
incredibly helpful) tendency to shoot upfield very
quickly. They'll need to be more mindful of Donald's
disruption on pa sing plays, where
Miami
Heat Hats his ability to crash the pocket could
pose problems for and company. (This is especially true
if the Cowboys utilize as much play-action as they did
early last season, when it seemed like offensive
coordinator was actually modernizing their offense. Of
course, that tendency faded over the course of
jeresy/kendrick-nunn-jersey">Kendrick Nunn Jersey
the year as deposed head coach Jason Garrett supposedly
reclaimed some level of control.)Dallas' third new
starter is rookie wideout (replacing , who is now with
the ). Adding Lamb alongside and almost seems unfair,
given that the Cowboys already had one of the most
explosive pa sing attacks in the league last season. Lamb
brings a lot more versatility than Cobb with his ability
to line up both inside and out, which should allow the
Cowboys to move Cooper around the formation a bit more
often than they did last season.No matter where Cooper
goes, I expect to travel with him. Ramsey is a shutdown
corner of the highest order, and he has not been shy
about his displeasure with the Cowboys' decision to take
Ezekiel Elliott with the No. 4 overall pick in 2016 when
Ramsey himself was still on the board. Cooper has
struggled with shadow coverage from Ramsey-type players
in the past (like both and last year), but being able to
move into the slot at times should at least allow him the
occasional free release. Even if Ramsey shuts Cooper
down, Dallas should have major advantages elsewhere in
the pa sing game. Gallup was just as good as Cooper last
year, and should see a lot of on the outside. Gallup has
some pretty big physical advantages in that matchup, and
it would not be surprising to see Prescott try to connect
with him on at least one jump ball down the sideline.
Lamb figures to see in the slot, and Long is just not
equipped to handle a receiver of Lamb's caliber, if his
play last year is any indication (115.4 pa ser rating
allowed, per Pro Football Focus). Lamb's run-after-catch
ability presents problems for the Rams, who allowed 5.1
yards after catch per reception last season.Prescott
should attack those matchups early and often
hardaway-jersey">Tim Hardaway Jersey , and we should
expect the Cowboys to involve Jarwin, Elliott, and
Pollard in the pa sing game as well. , the Rams' stud
coverage linebacker, is no longer with the team, and L.A.
now has and in the middle of the defense. Dallas should
be able to take advantage of them in coverage as
well.When the Rams have the ballMuch has also changed for
the Rams offense. is no longer the man in the backfield,
as he's been replaced by the three-man committee of , ,
and rookie . (Henderson's status is up in the air for
Sunday night.) is now in Houston, which means will have a
larger role... unle s he's supplanted by rookie . now
seems like the unquestioned starter at tight end ahead of
, which is reversed from how the Rams opened last season.
L.A.'s offensive line struggled mightily for most of last
year, but finally settled into a bit of a rhythm after
landing on Joseph Noteboom, , and as the starters on the
interior. These Rams are not the 2018 Rams, who were in
11 personnel nearly all of the time and almost always had
the same 11 players on the field. We should expect more
substituting, generally, as well as more varied personnel
packages. The Rams' usage of 12 personnel (one back, two
tight ends) jumped from 8 percent in 2018 to 21 percent
in 2019, per Sharp Football Stats, and it wouldn't be
surprising if that number jumped a bit higher again this
season. Maybe not quite 2019 high (52 percent), but maybe
somewhere in the range of the mid-to-high 20s, like last
year jeresy/kz-okpala-jersey">KZ Okpala Jersey 's (28
percent).It's honestly kind of tough to break down what
the matchups will look like for the Rams in the pa sing
game, because there are just a ton of questions about
this Cowboys secondary. will start at one of the safety
spots and is almost certain to man one of the corner
spots, but beyond that, we don't know much for
sure.Dallas has hinted that could play either corner or
safety. Same goes for fourth-round rookie Reggie
Robinson, though we wouldn't expect him to be as heavily-
involved early in the season as second-rounder , who
might (?) be one of the starting corners. figures to move
around quite a bit if he can get
