NFL betting: Sharp action on Cowboys causes a change in the point spread

FYI in no way do I recommend people run out and bet the house on the Cowboys this week. However I do find this very interesting because to move the line that much before a game, this isnt 5 and 10 dollar bets coming in on Dallas.

I was so close to betting on the Bengals last week. I didn't think we'd come close to covering, let alone winning.

The only thing that held me back was knowing what a roller-coaster ride it is being a Cowboys fan.

I was surprised it opened at NY -3 and apparently I wasn't alone.

Yep bet down 2 points already, that is a lot of Cowboy money coming in to move the line that much.

There's more faith in the Dallas Cowboys than last week.

A week ago the Cowboys were being written off without Dak Prescott. A line move indicates that sharp bettors believe they can win two in a row.

It probably also has to do with the notion that people just don't believe in the Giants, who are 2-0 but have looked atrocious in the process. They are banking on the floor caving on on them at some point.

Agree, but the smart money changes the line, and the Giants are the paper tiger of the league at 2-0, the smart money isnt buying it, but they are buying a defense that is improving to potential levels of slight greatness and a possible decent enough offense and special teams that can expose the paper tiger 2-0 Giants.
 
With all that money coming in on Dallas, you should probably take NY. Hate to say it, but it’s usually what happens when the public bangs one side.
 
Going to be a blow out. Daniel Jones is horrible, all the media is drinking the koolaid.
 
I was all on Dallas last week when it came out @+8.....went off @+7
Seen that scenario many times of starter playin bad and going down. Next week backup plays and team wins.....Cha-Ching
