Cowboys WR Dez Bryant vs. Colts CB Vontae Davis: You can’t get a much better matchup than this. Bryant is in peak form, coming off a three-touchdown game at Philadelphia, while Davis hasn’t allowed a touchdown this season. Bryant must win this matchup for the Cowboys to extend the Colts’ defense and prevent them from simply focusing on stopping the run.
