OUR PREDICTION: I think both of these teams have enough firepower to make it a high-scoring affair. Both Carr and Cook have moved the ball in preseason play and the Cowboys may have a sparkplug in the rookie Rush. I think no matter which signal-caller is in for either side, they'll have some success moving the football. Neither of these teams has played stellar defense yet.
