STACKED’s take

Positive signalMatchup

Watson torched Bears for 120+ yards and 2 TDs; Cowboys secondary vulnerable.

Watson is highlighted as part of the second-best receiver duo in the league by yardage output (alongside Matthew Golden for the Packers). In the Packers' 31-7 win over the Bears, Watson had over 120 yards and two touchdowns, exploiting the Bears defense with simple deep routes. The source notes Watson and Golden tore up the Bears without route creativity, just getting behind the defense—something the Cowboys were susceptible to in crunch-time moments against Tampa Bay. This matchup favors Watson against a Cowboys secondary weakened by the absence of P.J. Locke and Jalen Thompson.
