Cowboys at Colts: 3 causes for concern in Week 9

Matthew Holleran outlines three major areas of concern for the Dallas Cowboys heading into their Week 9 matchup against the 2-6 Indianapolis Colts. Despite Indianapolis enduring a difficult season, Holleran highlights the Colts' strong ground attack led by running back Jonathan Taylor as a significant threat to a Dallas defense that ranks among the league's worst against the run.

Additionally, the writer points to Indianapolis boasting a top-ten third-down defense, creating a difficult matchup for the Cowboys' offense. Holleran also warns that the Colts could bench struggling starting quarterback Daniel Jones in favor of dual-threat backup Anthony Richardson, noting Dallas previously struggled when facing an in-game quarterback change.
