Collins left the Cowboys’ win against the Chicago Bears about halfway through the game Sunday night. Here are five takeaways from the second win of the season. Prescott finished the 75-yard drive by powering the ball in from the 1. They never trailed in the entire game from that point.

Dallas went up 10-0 when Dan Bailey connected on a 49-yard field goal late in the first quarter.
The Bears return to Chicago searching for their first win against NFC North rival Detroit. So far it looks like a special class with several potential stars, including Carson Wentz and Dak Prescott. Bailey’s PAT moved the lead to 17-0.
The Cowboys were on their way to a score on a fifth straight possession when Terrance Williams fumbled at the end of a 47-yard catch on the opening drive of the second half.
Hoyer got off to a slow start in his Bears’ debut in Dallas, but he made strides in the second half with a pair of touchdowns to Zach Miller. “When you look down the road this year, you would like to be deep and would like to be good at the quarterback position”. Fox and general manager Ryan Pace stuck with Cutler after taking over the Bears in 2015, in part because of a $10 million guarantee in his contract.
Could rookie quarterback Dak Prescott, who has thrown 99 passes in his brief National Football League career without an interception, Wally Pipp the Cowboys’ $108-million man Tony Romo?
While Bryant remains the Cowboys’ best-known, big-play threat Cole Beasley has been Prescott’s favorite target.
Prescott ended up with the ball from his first touchdown, which was also a notable score for Bryant.
Neither team managed to hit the scoreboard the rest of the game, and the final score was 31-17. I think there’s been some positives.
“The leadership role, that kind of comes with being the quarterback of getting everyone aligned, getting everything set up, but I think that comes with showing the command and the knowledge of you know how to do this”, Hoyer said.
The Bears also had a slew of players that were limited in the team’s first workout of the week. “Really in all three phases”. “I don’t think we’ve put a complete game together by any stretch”. With each game, Elliott continues game continues to pick up steam, as he seemingly gets better and better with each and every carry.
“Those kinds of guys it’s fairly easy to kind of tailor, you know, when I say easy- less hard to tailor a plan for him to be able to function”. “That’s something I definitely need to correct”.
Through the first three games of the season, the Bears are allowing 27.7 points, 142.7 rushing yards and 214.3 passing yards per game. Just having the teammates that I do, who’ve co continued to have confidence in me no matter what we went through.
