Week 5 of the NFL season brings for the fans a battle between two great franchises: The Dallas Cowboys and the San Francisco 49ers. Both teams are coming into this matchup prepared to further solidify their positions in their respective divisions.

The 49ers have been dominating the whole season with 4 consecutive wins and are standing at top of the table. The Cowboys have only faced a single loss this season up till now, but apart from that are performing quite well this season.

The NFL point spread is currently SF -3.5 points and the total is 45 points.

What does Week 4 say about the Dallas Cowboys?

The Dallas Cowboys made quite an impressive comeback from their loss with a dominant 38-3 victory over the New England Patriots in Week 4. The Cowboys’ defense stole the show, forcing three turnovers, two of which were returned for touchdowns. The offense, led by quarterback Dak Prescott, found its rhythm quite early on, with wide receiver CeeDee Lamb catching a 20-yard touchdown pass to give them a seven-point lead.

The Cowboys did showcase an improved deep passing game and even their running game, despite not being dominant, complemented the air attack perfectly.

The Cowboys held a 28-3 lead at halftime, thanks to their defense’s two scoring plays. Eventually, it led them to secure quite a dominating win over the Patriots.

The Cowboys now aim to build on the positives from this game and at the same time address the struggles they faced in the red zone so that they can do even better in Week 5.

What does Week 4 say about the San Francisco 49ers?

In a very impressive performance, the San Francisco 49ers continued their winning streak by defeating the Arizona Cardinals with a score of 35-16, improving their record to a perfect 4-0 for the first time since 2019.

The star of the game was running back Christian McCaffrey. McCaffrey’s one of a kind four-touchdown performance showed the football world exactly what the player is capable of and what kind of an impact he has on the game. He scored both on the ground and through the air, finishing with a total of 106 rushing yards and three rushing touchdowns.

The young quarterback, Brock Purdy, also continued to impress, extending his regular season win streak to nine games. Purdy completed an impressive 20/21 passes for 283 yards and also a touchdown.

The 49ers’ strong performance has fans’ expectations quite high and they do not plan on disappointing them. They don’t plan on taking a step back any time soon in the 2023 season.

What to expect in Week 5? 

In Week 5, the Cowboys will face the San Francisco 49ers, a matchup that promises to be a high-scoring affair considering how good they both are. Ultimately, the outcome will come down to which defense can make critical stops and emerge victorious. Fans seem to be expecting a close game, but we are expecting something a little different. The Cowboys have all of their offensive lineman back and ready for the first time in what seems like forever. Their offense will be a force to be reckoned with. If the Cowboys defense can rattle second year QB Purdy and get him to throw a pick or two, Dallas wins big. Taking the ‘Boys plus the points is too intriguing to pass up.
