Injuries are the unfortunate part of the game, but the Cowboys have to exploit an offense that is being hit hard by injuries.
Last week, the Bears' defense gave up five touchdown passes to Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff, as the Lions would win the game 52-21.

The Bears could also capitalize on injuries to the Cowboys' secondary. Last week, Russell Wilson turned back the clock in Dallas. Wilson nearly led the New York Giants to a massive win. There's no question that injuries will be a headline going into this game.
