FIVE TOUGHEST GAMES FOR 2017 SEASON – NUMBER 2: DALLAS COWBOYS

Despite not being a primetime game, the Dallas Cowboys game is one that stands out on the schedule. The Cowboys were the best team in the NFC last year, only dropping three games (two of those to the Giants). This game will take place in Dallas in week nine of the regular season.

It’ll be one of the later games on that Sunday (November 5th) and will be a very difficult one for the Chiefs to win. The Cowboys are going to be a lot of people’s Super Bowl pick in 2017 and for good reason.

Last season, the Cowboys rode the rookie phenomenons in Ezekiel Elliott and Dak Prescott all the way to an NFC East title and a playoff appearance. These two now will have a full year of NFL experience under their belts and should have that Dallas offense wheeling and dealing in 2017.

Sometimes the Cowboys get overhyped and that could definitely end up happening, but I still see this being a very tough game for the Chiefs in 2017. Even if this were a home game, it’d make this list, but it being a road game against a Super Bowl contender puts it as number two on my list.
