The Dallas Cowboys are home underdogs to the Los Angeles Rams for Sunday's game, but that doesn't mean they can't win the game and move one step closer to a playoff spot. It's going to take guys on both sides of the ball playing some of their best games of the season, but they can still get it done.

Let's break down four reasons the Cowboys can beat the Rams and pick up their seventh win of the season.

4. Zeke

Ezekiel Elliott is playing really well and has rushed for at least 71 points in each of the last three games. The Rams have to make a decision if they are going to focus on Zeke or Dak Prescott. If they decide to focus on Zeke, Prescott is going to have a big game and if they decide to focus on a passing game, it's going to be Zeke running wild.

The Cowboys should have success establishing Elliott early and that is going to mean the offense is driving up and down the field.

3. Ability to take away Todd Gurley

The true strength of the Cowboys' defense is in the secondary taking away teams passing games, but with Goff, they really shouldn't have to focus a lot of their attention on that which means they are going to be able to put more eyes on Todd Gurley.

Gurley is coming off back to back good games, but for most of the season, he has really struggled. Even in the last game against the Seahawks, Gurley rushed for 79 yards, but it took 23 attempts to get the job done. Even if he rushes for 70 yards in this game but it takes 20 attempts, that is a big win for the Cowboys.

2. Cowboys defensive line against Rams offensive line

The Los Angeles Rams offensive line hasn't been good all season and that has led to a lot of Jared Goff's struggles this season. The Cowboys have 34 sacks this season and there is no reason they can't make life tough on Goff and put pressure in his face on Sunday afternoon.

According to PlayerProfiler.com, Goff is completing only 32.9 percent of his passes under pressure this year, which is 22nd in all of football.

If nothing else, Goff will have trouble completing passes if he has pressure on him, but it really should result in a couple of interceptions.

1. Dak Prescott

Even though the Cowboys have struggled, a lot of that doesn't have to do with Dak Prescott. If it wasn't for Lamar Jackson and the Cowboys had a few more wins, Prescott might be the MVP.

On the season, Prescott has completed 65.5 percent of his passes for 4,122 yards, 24 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions. In his last home game against the Bills, he threw for 355 yards and two touchdowns.

Some might be scared away from Prescott because the Rams' pass defense has been strong, but the same was said about the Bills' secondary. When the team needs the big throws late in this game, he is going to perform and get the job done.
