News: BTB: Dallas Cowboys Open As Underdogs Against Pittsburgh Steelers

[pugilist]

LOL.

So let me get this straight. Professional oddsmakers who make tons of money doing this stuff might forget that the Cowboys have two "rookies" who might not get caught up in trap games?

The fact people are pointing out things like how the Steelers are trash defensively and Big Ben clearly isn't healthy and the linesmakers still have them as a 3 point favorite? That's telling.

This will be a tough game IMO.

Reading is hard

How so? You just basically called oddmakers dumb for not taking into account that Dak and Elliott are rookies that are apparently immune from let down games.

Vegas is giving you easy money this week.

I like the fact the Cowboys go in as underdogs, help keep this teams feet on the ground. However Pitt at home has been very good so regardless of the point spread Dallas needs to be ready to go. Looking at forecast at least they are expecting great football weather 56 for the high and sunny.

This is a sucker's bet. Odds makers a putting the line where it is because the public thinks that Dallas streak will have to end at some point. Why not on the road against a good team? Steelers will still be favored by the weekend, but it will be down to -2. Take Dallas straight up. Since 2014, with Tony or Dak starting, Dallas is 14-0 on the road in the regular season.

Take the points.....

Dallas' gameplan will be to run the ball, control the clock, get early scores and then strangle the Steelers with the ground game, forcing Pittsburgh into desperate chances late and likely causing a bunch of turnovers.

Something similar to the other 7 previous wins.
