Bengals vs Cowboys live stream is today: How to watch the NFL week 2 online
The Bengals vs Cowboys live stream will see what Dallas can do without Dak!
The Bengals vs Cowboys live stream is today, and it features a Dallas team that is already dealing with too many injuries. Already missing their All-Pro left tackle, Tyron Smith, starting quarterback Dak Prescott suffered a broken thumb last week and will miss significant time. The Cowboys opted not to place the QB on injured reserve, inspiring hope that he will be back sooner than the original timeline of six to eight weeks. To add insult to injury, they only host the reigning AFC Champion Cincinnati Bengals in this NFL live stream.

Though their injury list isn’t as bad as their hosts Sunday, the Bengals are coming off a rough week one. They fell in overtime to the Steelers 23-20. Joe Burrow threw four picks in the loss, one of which was returned for a touchdown. Burrow was able to rally in the second half throwing both of his touchdown passes on his way to racking up 338 yards. He would help get his the Bengals in position to win in overtime, but kicker McPherson missed a 29 yard field goal attempt.
In this matchup, Burrow will have to be on the look out for reigning Defensive Rookie of the Year Micah Parsons and last year's interception leader Trevon Diggs.
Even before losing Dak to a broken thumb, things weren’t going the Cowboys' way in their 19-3 week one loss to the Buccaneers. Prescott completed less than 50% of his passes throwing for 134 yards with an interception on 14-of-29 passing.
Backup quarterback Cooper Rush will start under center for Dallas against Cincinnati. Rush took over for Prescott in the fourth quarter in week one completing 7-of-his-13 passes. This game will mark just the second start of Rush’s five-year career. He won his only other start, beating the Vikings last season 20-16 while posting a 105.1 passer rating.
According to the Action Network the Bengals are a 7-point road favorite and a -110 bet on the moneyline.
