Pioneer Press staffers who cover the Vikings lend their best guesses at predicting Sunday’s game in Dallas against the Cowboys:

Dane Mizutani

Cowboys 34, Vikings 23: Dak Prescott is the exact type of quarterback that has had success against Brian Flores in the past. J.J. McCarthy won’t be able to hang with Prescott in the shootout.

John Shipley

Cowboys 24, Vikings 23: Big picture, a Dallas team playing at home with Dak Prescott and playoff dreams seems like an easy pick, but the Vikings showed they still have a heart, if not much of a pulse, last week.

Jace Frederick
