Dallas +175 over the Falcons

[SportsPedagogy]

I picked Dallas to win week 1 vs the Giants, and i picked them to lose last week vs the Giants.

They will win outright this Sunday night vs the Falcons. Dallas is essentially a weak boxer with one hit knockout power. They can beat or lose to anybody, any given Sunday. They rise up to occasions like this.

Dallas is 3-0 in their last 3 attempts against undefeated teams who were 7-0 or higher. Most recently the Saints. All 3 teams they have beat have gone on to win the Superbowl.

This game opened at Dallas +5 and is now at Dallas +3.5

I was hoping it would go the opposite way.

Either way, I think Dallas wins straight up.

Please proceed with your anti-Dallas, Anti-Romo remarks.

Could definitely happen but I took +4.5

Dallas Cowboys +4 (-108) over Atlanta Falcons: The Falcons remained perfect at 7-0 by going into Philadelphia and beating the Eagles 30-17 with both teams coming off of a bye week. So is this the week that the Falcons finally taste defeat? Well, it could very well happen, although we feel more comfortable grabbing the four points with the Cowboys. After all, it simply defies logic that the Falcons can keep on winning while ranking 20th in the NFL in total defense and 31st (as in second to last) in defensive rushing average, surrendering an ungodly 5.1 yards per carry! More importantly, quarterback Matt Ryan and his great receivers Julio Jones and Roddy White may not have their usual passing success vs. the Cowboys third ranked passing defense allowing only 187.7 yards per game that has not one but two shutdown cornerbacks in Morris Claiborne and Brandon Carr. After all, Eli Manning of the New York Giants was leading the NFL in passing yards going into last week, and Dallas proceeded to limit him to 192 passing yards. In fact the Cowboys deserved a better fate in that 29-24 loss, as they outgained the G-Men by 141 yards but committed six turnovers. Dallas even appeared to have the game won anyway until a last-season winning touchdown reception by Dez Bryant was overturned by replay.

I got +5 and ml +180. I'm happy if the first one cashes and I would not be surprised if the second one does. Atl is a tough place but dallas needs to win a big game in a really bad way.

Any NBA picks, SportsPedagog?

Injuries on Dallas are sidelining or comprosing several of their players this week. I like their D unit and Romo plays a high risk/reward style that may pay dividends if he avoids big mistakes. I passed more out of respect for Atl at home, but know a couple of sharp bettors who took the Dallas opener.

Ill take the points Matt Ryan always leads a last minute win for ATL
