    Cowboys ML vs RAMS

    Watching the buccs down 28-0 at the beginning of the 2nd quarter: how about making a bet on the cowboys vs the rams? If the rams squeaked by the pathetic buccs, the cowboys can man handle the rams

    Sounds like a big fat TRAP on that one. Cowboys coming off a win and favored are horrible.

    Don't overthink this... St Louis got spanked by Minnesota and then should of gotten beat by a very bad Tampa Bay team...

    DAL beat STL 31-7 last year when STL still had Bradford, what's going to happen with STL#3QB in there?

    Even Dallas has too much pride not to crush STL

    Cowboys could be a trap bet.

    "trap" as in "fix"? What else could we look at to know if the fix is in? I've never mastered handicapping "fixes".

    Gotta ride with the gut feeling...Half the lobby thought ATL -6.5 was a trap and that was the easiest win of the year

    I personally like St. Louis in this one. They haven't won at home yet (Week 1). They won on the road last week, so they will be pumped up and motivated to pull out a W at home this week.

    Dallas won last week on the road and now have another road game. What's the saying on back-to-back road games? Win the 1st, lose the 2nd?

    My thoughts on the matchup:

    -Cowboys O-Line may be best in NFL and can handle that Rams D-Line
    -Cowboys will run with Murray and control clock to keep their shitty defense off the field.

    favs have never fared well historically in dal games either, no matter whether they the fav or the dog. .still tho i think you gotta consider murry would be a 1st ballot hof'er if he could run against the lambs every week, he absolutely abuses this defense every time they see him. not much has changed either, they still a overrated group that cant tackle for shit who continually get gashed in the run gm. murry should have another field day and there nothing bout lambs offense that says they can match him alone,, i guess homo could always have a homo type day and spoon feed stl a few tds but i think that the only way honestly, just not something i wanna bank on happening..

    Don't know what the boys in Lost Wages are thinking with the point spread. Cowboys only favored by 1? Come on.

    Scandrick is back with the defense, and the Rams have only scored 25 points all year.

    The Cowboys are a very good Week 3 team. I heard this morning that they have won 9 in a row Week 3 games.

    Look for Murray to go off again.

    In my experiences... If 75% or more are picking one team and the line stays cemented at where it started, there is something fishy going on.

    The three games last week that this was the case for was: Carolina, San Diego, and Chicago. All winners.

    As of now, 88% of the public is on the Cowboys and (at my book at least) the line has stayed at -1 all week.

    In my opinion, Cowboys win this game easily at first glance. But with the line set so low and the lack of movement, despite almost 90 percent being on Dallas, I am staying away from this game.

    Good luck to all betting!

    I was about to reply to him with a similar argument.
    When 70% and greater of the public is on the Cowboys and the line doesn't move past -3.
    The same thing happen with the Broncos -3 vs Seahawks super bowl.
    70% and greater of the public was on the Broncos and the line didn't move much, who eventually lost.

    Have no idea what all this crap means^^ if tony romo throws 4 picks and the defense plays like shit ( and they will) what does the line not moving have to do with the anything? I read the same crap in every thread you gys are like robots on here

    the rams beating the cowboys defies all logic but when it comes to sports "anything can happen"

    given the line, I believe this is a no brainer... won't call this a guarantee but I'd rather take a loss on a good bet than kick myself over not making a bet that goes on to win

    At least DAL has a QB. It's a QB-driven league and hard to win with a 3rd stringer at QB.
