The Denver Broncos visiting the Dallas Cowboys at AT&T Stadium in Week 5 on the NFL schedule is one of the best matchups of the weekend and it puts Peyton Manning on the field during one of the best stretches of his career and it comes at a bad time for the Cowboys, as their passing defense has not been strong this year and the game will be on CBS at 4:25 pm Sunday.
The Broncos look unstoppable right now and are one of a handful of teams at 4-0 this season and they will be looking for their fifth straight win to start the season. The offense has been very productive this season, with Peyton Manning tossing 16 touchdowns with zero interceptions, including the seven he had in the season opener against the Baltimore Ravens. The team has scored over 30 points in each game and has scored over 40 three times and over 50 last week in the victory over the Eagles and that has to be troubling for the Dallas Cowboys this week.

Manning has a ton of weapons to choose from in the offense and the hardest things for the Cowboys will be who they will focus on, as Eric Decker, Wes Welker, Demaryius Thomas and Julius Thomas all have the potential to break out and the Thomas boys are two of the hardest players in the league to matchup with. The Broncos have started the season with all double-digit victories and they will be looking for another one on Sunday before playing another easy game against the Jacksonville Jaguars next week at home, which the Jags have a very slim chance of winning.
The next week will have one of the most anticipated games of the season in all of football, as Manning will return to the city where he won a Super Bowl in Indianapolis when the Broncos visit the Colts. That game will be very emotional and it will also be a tough game, as the Colts made the playoffs last season and were leading their division heading into this week. The back half of the schedule has tough games on the road against the Chargers and Patriots after the team plays at home against the Washington Redskins before their bye and they still have two games to play against the currently undefeated Chiefs.
The Broncos no doubt will make the playoffs and they will have two home games in Weeks 14 and 15 against the Titans and the Chargers before playing against the Houston Texans on the road in Week 16 and that will set up the final game against the Oakland Raiders on the road. The Dallas Cowboys will have to play tough defense to slow down what the Broncos have been doing and giving up an average of over 300 yards passing yards per game this season will only make it tougher. Manning could have a field day on the Cowboys, but they have been preparing all week and this game could come down to whether each defense bends and does not break.
