Kansas City Chiefs vs Dallas Cowboys | NFL – Nov. 21, 2021
After a terrible start to the season, the Kansas City Chiefs found their game in offense and Patrick Mahomes against the Las Vegas Raiders last week looked like the old one again. Everything worked in Andy Reid’s system and now the Chiefs are hoping an identical performance will be at home against the Dallas Cowboys. The Chiefs ’ambition is to pick a SuperBowl appearance for the third year in a row. There is no doubt that their offense is one of the best in the entire league, but the problem is a much changed offensive line, as well as insufficient quality defense. However, when Mahomes plays at his level, all bad items can be made up. What’s a fact, it’s that the team looks better and better from game to game and the duel against the Cowboys will show the true strength of this team.
The Dallas Cowboys had a disastrous year last season although they secretly hoped they could get far. One of the reasons was that quarterback Dak Prescott ended the season very early due to injury, however now that all the players are healthy, the Cowboys are playing really great. From time to time a bad day happens to them, as was the case against the Denver Broncos, however when they are able to play at the highest level then they can beat anyone. Wide receivers Amari Cooper and CeeDee Lamb have had some impressive performances and when Prescott plays at level, opponents don’t know where they are in greater danger from. Whether through Ezekiel Elliott and running games or through great wide receivers.
Injuries
The biggest problem for the Dallas Cowboys will be the absence of the already mentioned Amari Cooper who is positive on covid-19 and will miss the next 10 days due to isolation. The performance of Tyron Smith, Nahson Wright and Kelvin Joseph is questionable.
The Chiefs will have almost all the important players at their disposal except L’Jarius Sneed who has a knee injury problem and will most likely not play on Sunday.
Previous results and H2H
Kansas City Chiefs are at a modest 6-4 after 10 games played. In the era of Andy Reid in these nine years, only once did the team fail to achieve 10 wins in the regular season and when that happened, the score was 9-7. The Dallas Cowboys have a score of 7-2 and are in first place in the NFC East. The Cowboys and Chiefs last played each other more than four years ago when the Cowboys won in Dallas.
Prediction
Pick: Kansas City Chiefs to win
Odds: 1.74
Bookmaker: 22Bet
This will be derby of the week 11, and looking at the performances of the Chiefs and Cowboys in important matches in recent years, the epilogue is completely different. The Chiefs mostly win such matches, especially at home, while the Cowboys lose them. Without Cooper, guests will be left without their main catching option which will surely diminish their chances of success. If Mahomes is at the level again, the triumph of the Chiefs should be expected.
