The Dallas Cowboys are set to host the Arizona Cardinals on Week 9’s edition of Monday Night Football, a game with critical implications for both teams. The Cowboys are looking to rebound from a disheartening loss against the Denver Broncos, which put their season record at a troubling 3-4-1. In contrast, the Cardinals have endured five consecutive losses and seem to be out of contention for playoff hopes altogether.
Dallas hasn’t managed to rise above a .500 record yet, but they have consistently avoided losing back-to-back games during the 2025 season. On the other hand, the Cardinals are not fully healthy, as quarterback Kyler Murray still hasn’t recovered from his injury that kept him off the field for the last two games.
Will the Cowboys manage to get back on track, or will the Cardinals finally claim a victory? Here’s how you can catch the action:

Offensive Matchup
Jacoby Brissett will take the field as starting quarterback for the Cardinals, making his third consecutive start in place of Murray. Since Brissett has stepped up, the offense has become more dynamic, capitalizing on its passing game and establishing effective connections with Trey McBride.
On the Dallas side, Dak Prescott’s caliber this season had reached a remarkable level prior to their recent setback against the Broncos, receiving support from key players like CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens. However, Prescott was pressured heavily in that last game, leading to mistakes which the Cowboys aim to rectify against Arizona.
Prediction
Historically, the Cowboys tend to possess substantial advantages in offensive matchups while facing notable disadvantages on defense. With Prescott being more reliable than Brissett in driving offensive efficiency, this matchup favors the Cowboys.
Prediction: Cowboys 30, Cardinals 23
