    Cowboys go from favorites to underdogs as doubts emerge about Prescott’s availability
    Source: NBC sporte

    Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott doesn’t expect to know until tomorrow whether he’s playing against the Vikings on Sunday Night Football. But the people with money riding on the game think Prescott will be sitting out.
    The Cowboys opened as 2.5-point favorites over the Vikings, but now the Vikings are 2.5-point underdogs. That’s because bettors put big money on the Vikings as doubts emerged about whether Prescott will play through his calf injury.

    Why wouldn't the books take the game down until tomorrow?

          Public team, already got a lot of public action coming out of the bye week. Maybe they are looking to take a position on this game and kill a bunch of guys
          Grier or Rush? Yikes

                It has to be Rush. He looked decent with the second team in pre season.

                  No sense in playing him until he's 100% or close to it; they're easily the best in that division and can afford to lose a few games. Their goal has to be to make sure he's healthy for the playoffs.

                    If Dak doesn't play they will lose by 2 TDs. Last year the back ups were horrible. Coach does not spend time with back ups to teach them the offense. Byer beware.

                                Jerry Jones is a buffoon.
                                I'm not a fan of McCarthy either, but I'll pay attention to what McCarthy has to say over that 100 year old billionaire fossil senile owner has to say.



                                • Dak Prescott (calf) is questionable for Week 8 against the Vikings.


                                  Prescott, limited for Friday's practice, was reportedly sore after ramping up his practice activity the day prior. Even so, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said "things are looking good right now" regarding Dak's status; coach Mike McCarthy had a different view, stating Prescott's outlook is about "more than just this game." Truly questionable for Sunday night, all Cowboys players would need to be downgraded significantly if Cooper Rush gets the nod in place of Prescott.

                                    If the price is right, yeah.

                                    This game has GB/AZ written all over it.
                                    Star player out. ignorant public jumps on the other side, the other side not only covers. but wins outright.
                                    Cards burnt the public big time the other night.
                                    Bet ya Cowboys do the same.

                                    I like your thinking file clerk.

                                          Per ESPN’s Ed Werder: While Dak Prescott said he anticipated a decision following today’s practice as to whether he or Cooper Rush starts vs. the Vikings, two sources now say it will be a game-time decision. “We are literally going to take it into tomorrow (night),” one source said.

                                                My money would be on the Vikings regardless, that Vikings pass rush should give Prescott problems if he ends up playing.

                                                  I'm glad I don't have Dak as my starting QB in fantasy.

                                                  8:20 pm start, unless your back up QB is playing on Monday night you're forced to sit Dak unless he's a guaranteed start, and even so, would you start him?

                                                    I don't know man, the Vikings rank first in the League in sacks. They are a talented group.
