From the article

Old friend Daniel Jones at QB for the Colts is the next opponent for the Cowboys to put pressure on, both with their defense (more on that later) and ideally the offense too, by possessing the ball and scoring touchdowns. Jones is 1-8 in his career against the Cowboys, from his past time with the Giants, with four touchdowns and six interceptions in these nine games.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalMatchup

Jones' 1-8 record vs. Cowboys with 16 sacks in last 4 starts signals major downside risk.

Jones is 1-8 in his career against the Cowboys from his Giants tenure, with 4 TDs and 6 INTs in 9 games; he was sacked 16 times in his last 4 starts against Dallas (all losses), including 8 sacks in the last 2 games where the Cowboys won by a combined 60-15 with 3 interceptions. Jones was sacked 3 times last week vs. Jags, 4 times vs. Vikings (record-breaking blitz rate), and 6 times vs. Titans; the Steelers got to him once but forced 44 drop-backs vs. 24 rushing attempts. The source emphasizes the Cowboys' pass rush must prioritize getting to Jones before he extends plays, as coverage alone cannot be trusted to hold up.
