Kyle Terada-Imagn Images The Dallas Cowboys and San Francisco 49ers will battle it out on the latest installment of “Sunday Night Football.” Come chat with us in our open thread. The San Francisco 49ers (3-4) are hosting the Dallas Cowboys (3-3) in a Week 8 “Sunday Night Football” battle. These are two of the most storied franchises in the NFL, and for the majority of the 1990s, they dominated the NFC. Despite their long histories, they’ve only faced each other 40 times, with San Francisco leading 16-14-1 in the regular season, while Dallas has a 5-4 lead in their playoff games. The 49ers are been battling the injury bug from the start of the season, as they’ve had to play without star running back Christian McCaffrey. Recently, things have gotten even worse. Brandon Aiyuk was lost for the season with a knee injury, Deebo Samuel was hospitalized with pneumonia, Jauan Jennings missed the game with a hip injury, and George Kittle suffered a foot injury. Samuel and Kittle are listed as questionable for this game, while the rest will be unavailable. How much magic can Brock Purdy muster? The Cowboys are coming off their bye week, meaning they have been stewing for two weeks over the 47-9 shellacking they took at the hands of the Detroit Lions. Dallas had to do some soul-searching over the bye because they have been very Jekyll and Hyde throughout their first six games. Depending on which version of Dallas shows up this week could dictate how the rest of their season plays out. Betting line and pick for the game The folks over at FanDuel Sportsbook have tabbed San Francisco as the favorites and set the betting line at 49ers -3.5 points. After witnessing Dallas implode in Week 6, it’s hard for me to have too much confidence in them, despite all the 49ers' injuries. Also, because of the bye, I’m expecting a delayed response to the Lions hangover effect—which has already claimed another victim this week.
