Cowboys are currently 2.5-point underdogs for their Week 1 game

[AsthmaField]

I think all of their guys are technically healthy, but conditioning and quality is a big question - especially for Conklin.

I see… thx.

If they still have Bill Callahan as OL, they’ll be good no matter what. He’s the best in the NFL.

Ya well like most of our so-called Studs they only exist in our homer minds...............CD is no Jefferson or Hill not even Brown.
Know to go MIA in games with good defenses.............

How dare you?

They do not lol. They hired a new one this spring

Good… I’ve been out of the loop since the end of last season. Nice to know we don’t have to deal with his OL in week 1.

Nick Chubb not playing will help the Cowboys run defense

Keep in mind who's in charge of getting him the ball

They started as us a +1 fav hmmmm figure by kick-off -3 dogs.

Doubt it gets to 3

 

[JBS]

I thought home field advantage was 3 points, and the way we played last year on the road, you would think it would be higher.

So they must believe we have the better team.

Almost nobody in the nfl gets 3 pts for home field anymore. 1.5-2 is average

Really....if I was a betting man I'd take the Browns, Packers, Vikings and Bucs and screw the points.

Yea. But we've known since last year he wasn't playing.

I'm not really concerned about the Browns' offense, to be honest. I don't think Watson has the arm strength to hit much over the top - though we don't really know - so Dallas should just be able to crowd the box all day anyway.

Tied for 1st in the division entering Week 2!!!

No brainer lol

 

[Cowboy4ever]

We should win this game going away. Watson hasn’t played much ball since he was in Houston and the few games he has played he was pretty bad.

I remain unpersuaded that our rookie LT is going to get through a game with the DPOY w/o having had 4 or more plays of some negative significance.

Worse still, if the knee situation gets exacerbated and forces us to put a 2nd year 5th round pick (!) in there as his replacement... I'm going to up that to 8 or more plays.

Our collective risk aversion... team and fans alike... seems about like a 17 yr-old heading out to the other end of town for a drag race after a few beers. Tempting fate like this to wag its fickle finger at the Dallas Cowboys 2024 edition is bold. And we should have had a real vet in the house that could, at least, provide some insurance.

They should be 3 to 4 point dogs, tbh. If the Browns didn't have the injuries they have it would probably be in that range

Garrett has success against every LT in the league. It's no more of a risk for Guyton than basically anybody else.

 

[Praxit]

...so basically, its a 50/50 game. Hopefully, Dak comes out guns blazing, in vengeance mode.

 

[Teague31]

Hilarious. Watson is one of the worst QB’s in the league

 

[Tabascocat]

In today’s game, the home team gives up about 2.3 points(it used to be 3). It’s a tossup, 50/50 gamble.
