Dallas Cowboys
- The highest-scoring team from 2021 comes into 2022 with high expectations. On paper, a top n PFF graded offensive line with Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, and Zeke Elliot should be poised for another top 5 offensive season.'
- Vegas expects this team to take a small step back, likely from the loss of Amari Cooper. Dallas is expected to finish with 437 points; this number is top 7 across the league and 4th highest in the NFC.'
- The Cowboys’ defensive unit was a top 10 in 2021, allowing 358 points, the 7th fewest.' The loss of Randy Gregory is expected to have a significant impact, given that the Cowboys are projected to be a very average defense, allowing 391.5 points, the 17th most.'
