Dallas Limps into Sunday Night NFL Betting Matchup at Philly

Dallas Cowboys vs. Philadelphia

At the onset of the season Philadelphia was among the NFL betting favorites to make the playoffs and challenge for a repeat Super Bowl win.  In the same way Dallas was picked to challenge the Eagles for NFC East supremacy.  And yet both the Cowboys and Philadelphia have struggled most of the year.  Consider both teams are in the red vs. the betting line this season.  Especially Dallas has been a major disappointment for gamblers.  Comparable to past years this Cowboys offensive unit has been particularly bad.  Consistent with that is an Eagles offense that has gone hot and cold.

Philadelphia Eagles    

Philadelphia has a NFL betting record of 4-4 straight up and 3-5 against the spread with five unders.  Last time out the Eagles scored a 24-18 payout at Jacksonville followed by an off week.  Regardless the Eagles have lost five of their last six vs. the odds.  Three of their last four games have gone under the total.  Overall Philadelphia has gone 21st for scoring offense but fifth for scoring defense.  Specifically, quarterback Carson Wentz has impressed.  Wentz has a 109.6 rating with 13 touchdowns and two interceptions.

Dallas Cowboys

The slumping Cowboys have lost three of their last four straight up and two in a row against the spread.  In sum Dallas is 3-5 straight up and 3-5 vs. the line with five unders.  Of great concern is a Cowboys offense that ranks 27th overall and 26th for scoring.  Equally important is a strong Dallas defense that ranks third for points allowed.  Quarterback Dak Prescott has an 88.9 rating with 10 touchdowns and five interceptions.

Stats to Consider

Dallas has dropped as an offshore betting value when getting points away from home. For example, the Cowboys have covered just one of their last five in that role.  They have also gone under the total in five straight games getting points on the road.  Balanced against that is the Eagles recent red ink as a home chalk.  To show Philadelphia has lost their last four games vs. the odds laying points at Lincoln Financial Field.  Their last five in that situation have gone under the total.

Team vs. Team

Head to head the Cowboys have been in the black recently with the Eagles.  In turn Dallas has covered the spread in three of their last five with Philadelphia.  And the last three meetings between these teams have gone under the total.  Additionally, the Cowboys have shown their best profitability at Philadelphia.  To be exact Dallas has paid in five of their last seven visits to Lincoln Financial Field.  Three of the last five between these teams at Philly have gone under the total.

Matchup to Watch

Commencing with their defense the Cowboys are an NFL betting threat to get the money in this one.  As has been noted Dallas has been strong at Philadelphia.  Also, the Eagles are in the red as a home chalk.  Decidedly the Cowboys can take this one straight up.
