    5 seems like a big number for Dallas even though they are home and added Cooper to the arsenal which probably will have minimal impact tonite being he is just blending into a new offense. Any insight or is this just one of those just watch a movie and forget about nights??? lol

        I actually do like Dallas -5, I have Tennessee rated as third worst offense in the NFL ahead of only Buffalo and Arizona, I even have Cleveland rated higher. And defense is mediocre at best, no reason why Dallas shouldn't win by at least 7.

          I agree I think 5 is very soft and you will see late movement toward 6 or 6.5 but for sure it will move past 5 by a bunch

              Dallas wising up and calling more designed runs for Dak, as long as Zeke is at his best, Dak shouldn't hurt them too much.

                  Sure...worse than Eli Manning, Ryan Tannehill/Brock Osweiler, Ryan Fitzpatrick/Jameis Winston, Nate Peterman/Josh Allen, Derek Carr, Case Kennum, Joe Flacco, Andrew Luck, Nick Mullens, etc. Dak better than half the current NFL starters.

                    Staying away on this one. Zack Martin, their best OLman has been hurt most of the bye week with a sprained MCL, the rest of the OL has been struggling. They fired their OL coach during the bye week too. Their starting TE is out and right now the word is the rookie is probably going to get the start. The Cowboys defense has been good 2nd in points allowed, but the Titans defense has been pretty good too, 3rd in points allowed. Titans DT Casey is one of the better interior defenders and with a rookie LG, backup center and banged up RG, he could blow up the middle of the OL. Hard to trust the Cowboys, while Zeke should have a good night, it's also easy to see Jerry wanting them to force the ball to Cooper and play with their shiny new toy.

                        This game is matched even on paper....Looks like the total is correct to be so low as both Defenses have talent over the opp offenses. Tenn just has more D options now. They have also moved down from +6 earlier this week and now at +4.5. I like the Tenn Defense here. Mariota will run on this Cowboys D and the Boys can be exposed here. Hopefully on the Tenn O side Henry and Lewis should be able to find holes. (Remember though the Ravens did sack Mariota 11x a few weeks ago so his O line needs to be better.) Tenn has solid cornerbacks.

                          I am not as high on Tennessee defense as others are, they are only 19th in defensive efficiency will facing the fifth easiest schedule of opposing offenses.

                            Free points play only for me here, watch and maybe a live play. Parlay Titans ML +184 and under 37 in the Bills/Jets upcoming hot garbage offenses bowl.

                              Idiot coach with more time to become more idiotic as the seconds tick. Only reason is Dallas at home and calls in Jerry’s pocket as the league needs Dallas relevant. Other than that Titans are the play.

                                Dallas coaching is my only concern here, Cowboys grade out better on paper. I just don't see Titans scoring much and Tennessee defense is overrated according to the metrics I noted on Post #13

                                  Dallas is should be 3pt favorite at neutral field. Add 3-5 pts for being at Jerry's World...

                                  Dallas covers the 5 tonight.

                                    I guess this would definitely be the week to not overthink a game too much so I’m going with my gut and initial lean and laying the points on the home team. Also may take Dallas -3 1st half .

                                          Odds no TD scored by Cowboys +700

                                          Odds no TD scored by Titans +280

                                          I never really pay much attention to props but this one stood out to me for some reason. Interesting....

                                            80% of how I don’t bet, paper. The game is played by humans, some smarter than others, here I trust Vrabel and the two weeks off. If Dallas covers or even wins watch the holding or PI calls. Just my thoughts. Good luck!

                                              But you need the paper to calculate lines. How do you know there is value if you don't have your own lines to compare actual lines to? "Gut" handicapping doesn't win over the long term.

                                                LT are you trying to get kicked out, if I said that I would be banned and called a troll.

                                                  LT Profits has convinced me to put a small play on the Cowboys at -4.5. Mostly so I have something to think about while watching the game. Then again, perhaps a better option would be to just not watch the game...
