I love it, wish I could take them 10 times on my parlay. They will absolutely cover the spread. Took them last week to cover by 4, only lost my parlay because the stupid Falcons couldn't beat the Bears by 7!!

Surprising line. I figured it might be a pick em or even Denver as a slight favorite at home.

It definitely is a Cowboys line.

Dak doesn't throw picks, and Zeke doesn't fumble. Long drives to eat clock. That's why the o/u lines are low.

Dallas should be the underdog. Mile High stadium is a huge advantage for the Broncos.

Those lines reflect where the money goes. Vegas wants the money 50/50 split so they can just pocket the juice. People always bet the Cowboys out of their fandom.

Which tells me the Cowboys are likely to win. All the trends and stat lines say that Denver should be the favorite. Vegas is chock full of data about trends and stats and they made the Cowboys a favorite.

I think Dallas will win and it's possible, it might not be really, really close either. I could see a 10 point Cowboys win.

Which is what changes the lines to try to influence equal betting on the other team. Dallas is so popular its difficult for Vegas to set the line. From what I read, they often skew the line to reduce the impact of the "fandom" bet, which is why educated gamblers often think Dallas is a "sucker's bet".
