Cowboys vs. 49ers Prediction

I’m on the 49ers here. I don’t know what’s going on with Dallas, but the Cowboys just feel broken, and I’m not sure they can be put back together right now. The 49ers haven’t been a whole lot better, but the pieces are still there and I just trust the 49ers at home a lot more in this spot. The Cowboys can’t stop a nosebleed with their rush defense and I think San Francisco runs all over the Cowboys here. Give me the 49ers.
