Cause by a three-game losing streak and sub .500 record are Cowboys fans and gamblers incensed. Once again, the Jerry Jones hype machine promised a season of glory only to fall flat on its face. Dallas is facing a season on the brink. Despite the fact that they are in a terrible NFL betting slump the Cowboys are fortunate. To illuminate they co-lead the NFC East, which is the NFL’s worst. By contrast, the Rams are back in gear after a poor start to the 2019 campaign. The question is whether or not they will run out of time.
