During Wednesday morning's episode of "First Take" on ESPN, Stephen A. Smith delivered a blunt prediction for the Cowboys' Week 10 clash against San Francisco.
"I know they're gonna lose this weekend. They're gonna find a way," Smith said.
Brock Purdy and the 49ers are the clear favorites entering Sunday's Week 10 clash at AT&T Stadium. Kyle Shanahan's team is operating at an elite level, and the same cannot be said for Brian Schottenheimer's squad.

Despite their 4-5 losing record, the Cowboys closely trail the 5-2-1 New York Giants in the NFC East standings. An upset win over the 49ers would go a long way in keeping pace with the division leaders.
Sunday's Week 10 matchup against the 49ers will kick off at 4:25 p.m. ET.
