Cowboys at Eagles Sunday Night Football Pick

Sports Betting at the Sportsbook

The 5-2 Dallas Cowboys head to Philadelphia to take on the 5-2 Eagles this week for Sunday Night football. The live NFL lines show that Philadelphia is a 3 point chalk, with the over/under posted at 47.5. Jeff Hochman is here to dissect the matchup to help you preview this game.

This should be one dandy of a football game in front of a national crowd this coming Sunday Night. I will be observing from Pre-game through Post-game. Let’s take a look at some key news, notes, and stats from this divisional match-up. For all you trend buffs, I listed three from my database.

Philadelphia will be playing their third straight game vs. an NFC opponent. They are 2-0 SU and ATS in the past two games. If Brian Westbrook is out (check status) that will be a big loss for the Eagles. He has had monster games vs. Dallas in his career. Dallas has scored 101 points in their previous 3 games. Miles Austin has given this team a big-time #1 pass catcher. He also plays with a passion that has been demanded on this Cowboys’ team since T.O.
Owens departed. Get to know the 6-3, 213- pound wideout because he is a coming star. I compare him to Larry Fitzgerald who is the same height but 5 pounds heavier. Miles is swifter. They both play the exact same way. (120% on every down)

2008 – That’s the game the Cowboys got their ass kicked by the Eagles. The final was 44-6! That’s also the day I believed Wade Phillips would get fired. I am not his greatest fan to say the least, but he has done a adequate job so far this year.

Something’s Gotta Give

The Cowboys throw for 263 yards per game but the Eagles only yield 193 passing yards per game. The Cowboys are 5-1 SU and ATS vs. the NFC East while the Eagles are 4-1 SU and ATS.

Better Offense

Dallas Cowboys average 411 YPG this year compared to 344 for Philly.

Better Defense

Philadelphia Eagles average 296 Yards against likened to 360 for Dallas. Philly has a talent for creating turnovers. Dallas does not and in fact ranks last in takeaways.

Better Special Teams

After the first two weeks I would have said the Eagles. As of right now I would say it’s pretty even.

Better Coaching Staff

Philadelphia Eagles- Andy Reid is one of the best HC’s in all of football.

Intangibles

Dallas Cowboys– They got their ass handed to them in last year’s playoff game by these same Eagles.

Lets talk Total

The Cowboys are 5-3 to the Over this year and the Eagles are 6-1 to the Over. Hence the line is so high at 47.5 points. The Over is 6-1-1 L8 when these teams meet in Philadelphia. Most of the time when the Over looks like a can’t miss prospect the exact opposite happens. Be careful!

Top Trends

The Cowboys are 8-2 ATS last ten November games.

The Cowboys are 22-9 SU and 18-13 ATS vs. the NFC East since 2006.

The Philadelphia Eagles are 11-1 ATS L12 in games after facing the NY “football” Giants.
