Seahawks vs. Cowboys key players to watch

Seattle Seahawks

Geno Smith: This team lives and dies with the play of Geno Smith and let's be honest, he has not been good enough this season and has been a big reason they're trending in the wrong direction. He can right a lot of wrongs with a big performance on Thursday night if it leads Seattle to an upset win.

Dallas Cowboys

Dak Prescott: The Dallas Cowboys quarterback is officially in the mix to be named the NFL MVP. He's second in the league in completion percentage, QBR, and quarterback rating. If he can continue to play this well against tough opponents down the stretch, he may just win the MVP award for the first time in his career.

Seahawks vs. Cowboys prediction and pick

There's no doubt the Cowboys have been dominant this season and almost every single metric you look at, there's no reason to not believe they're going to be on the right side of another blowout.

Except for one.

The Cowboys have had the easiest schedule in the NFL to this point of the season based on opponent win percentage. They have played just two teams all season who currently have a winning record; the 49ers and the Eagles, both games which ended in a loss. The combined record of the teams they've beaten in their eight wins this season is 28-63. That tells me that a lot of their metrics are inflated to a certain degree and this next stretch of games is when we're going to get a true sense of how good they are.

If there's ever been a "sell high" spot on a team, it's the Cowboys this week. The opposite could be said about the Seahawks, who are in a great "buy low" spot after two straight losses. They're still 14th in the NFL in Net Yards per Play this season, let's not lose faith in them yet.

Are they better than the Seahawks who have admittedly been trending in the wrong direction? Yes. Are they 10 points better? No, I don't believe they are.
