Can the Cowboys bounce back?
The Cowboys' loss to the 49ers last week was brutal. Quarterback Dak Prescott, who threw three interceptions in that game, was quite humbled by the loss. He and his offensive line will need to prove themselves against the Chargers this week and it'll be a challenge going up against pass rusher Khalil Mack, who had six sacks in just one game against the Raiders in Week 4.
Ekeler returns, Bosa good to go
The Chargers will see running back Austin Ekeler take the field for the first time since Week 1, as he's been nursing an ankle injury for the last four games. Back then, he notched 16 carries for 117 yards and one rushing touchdown.
Chargers edge rusher Joey Bosa is also good to go after dealing with a toe injury and being listed as Questionable earlier this week. In the three games he's played this season, Bosa has registered six tackles (three for a loss), three sacks, and a pass deflection. When healthy, he's capable of really bolstering the Chargers defense. Injuries have been an issue with him in the last few years, but he's good to go ahead of the Cowboys tonight. Good news for the Chargers, who have given up 404 yards per game this season.

Kellen Moore back to face his old team
Offensive coordinator Kellen Moore was with the Cowboys for four years as the OC before moving to Los Angeles to become the Chargers' offensive playcaller. Although Moore produced high-level offenses, he struggled in situational football.
Now, it's head coach Mike McCarthy who's in charge of playcalling for the Cowboys and so far, he's not much better, despite having won Super Bowls as a playcaller in Green Bay. The Cowboys are 16th in total offense with 327 yards per game and eighth in scoring offense (26.8 points per game). The Chargers, on the other hand, are fifth in total offense (389 yards per game) and seventh in scoring offense (27.5 points per game) with Moore at the helm.
Moore not looking for revenge
Though it may seem like Moore would want to prove himself and make the Cowboys sorry for the move, he said he doesn't feel any extra motivation to beat the Cowboys and looks forward to seeing them again.
“Jerry’s awesome. I’m obviously thankful....There are a lot of relationships you love and appreciate there, people you’re close to and will be close to for a long time. It’ll be fun to see all those people.”
With Vander Esch out, Cowboys make 6 roster moves

Cowboys and Chargers - where they stand
After shutting out the Giants 40-0 in Week 1, the Cowboys looked like they were on an upwards trajectory, but two bad losses - one to the Cardinals and last week's 42-10 loss to the 49ers - have put everything into question. They're now 3-2 and second in the NFC East behind the Eagles.
The Chargers are on a high after two straight wins against the Vikings and Raiders and a bye week. They're now 2-2 and second in the AFC West behind leaders Kansas City Chiefs.
