Draft Kings release season win totals over/under Cowboys 9.5

[fivetwos]

I wouldn’t consider myself what many of you refer to as a “homer,” but I’d say over 9.5 on Dallas is a safe bet.

They either win about 12 games or many things go wrong and they win around 5….like 2020, or 2015.

Never ever bet an over. Look for an under you like and bet that. This way you never have to worry about the QB getting injured. Out of all of those up there, I'd take the 49ers at under 11.5

I mean we lost our QB last year and still won 12 games

 

[Jipper]

I'd ask myself do I see this team losing 8 games next year in the watered down nfc....to which I say no...over is easy

 

[Flamma]

A qb getting hurt is luck. Especially for the whole season. If it happens it happens that’s the pitfall or gambling but yeah I’d stay away from the 49ers. That prop is too high IMO.

It doesn't have to be for the whole season. Just 2 losses can be the difference. I'm just saying, it's not something you have to worry about if you pick an under you like.

LOL I know. Think about it. How do you think the gamblers that took the over with Dallas felt at the time?

 

[Risen Star]

Under.

 

[PAPPYDOG]

AFC East plus our division is no longer a pushover ya line seems logical.

 

[Risen Star]

A heartbroken Prescott (no Zeke) leads them to a 6-11 record.

But he'll know he has to be better and will look forward to proving the doubters wrong in 2024.

Interesting. In my casual gambling days of long ago, I always felt it was best to bet on something NOT happening vs the opposite.

What’s nice about overs though….it’s the only way to be able to know you won your bet before the game is over. Season in this case.

I've won this bet each of he last 2 years and will definitely jump on it again.
Was scared last year when Dak was injured but the team was good enough to get to 10 even with Rush.
This is a very safe bet IMO

The poor defense will hold its own out there but Paniko Prescatto (ole) will once again lose them to the tune of 8-9....

Like I said, it's just one less thing to worry about. I'm not saying take the under in hopes someone gets hurt. You have to feel confident in the under in the first place. Bet it as if the QB plays every game. This way you don't have to worry about the QB getting hurt.

This is assuming that he reports to camp "in the best shape of his life".

I would say dont be so confident in betting the over because our starting QB is injury prone, but Cooper Clutch has shown he can come in and win games

I have always posted that I disagree with the 'injury prone' designation but have been patiently waiting for the time it might be applied to Dak Prescott. Almost seven years have passed since some CowboysZone members (not you necessarily) posted that it was time for 'injury proned' Tony Romo should be replaced by someone not injury prone and that player would be Dak Prescott.

My argument was that all players are susceptible to injury or injuries.

It was countered by the false but long accepted generalization that some players do not get injured are thus not injury prone.

Time has a tendency of laying on irony real thick, lol.

You guys said Cowboys suck and they won 12 games back to back. Easy over.

Yes I remember many 6 to 9 win predictions. And they started already for this next season as well.
I predict at least 50% on here will be saying 8 or 9 wins tops.

But what Flamma is telling you, is correct…
Stay away from betting over, it’s how the bookies make their money off you.

Oh for sure they will. Then when we win they will say we were supposed to lol.

Not off me. I only bet overs because of the unders. It all depends on the prop. If it said 10 games I’d understand. I personally wouldn’t touch the prop but at 10 I understand not taking that over. But a 12 win team that got better? At 9.5? I’m taking it. They just showed they can go 4-1 with a backup QB.

Telling people to stay away from overs doesn’t seem like good advice but maybe I’m missing the betting angle on it. I made a grip of money off Cowboys last year and I hate betting on them but they had Parsons sack prop at 10.5 and Lamb catches really low. That was easy money to me.

I agree to an extent…..but I do not like Cowboys under 9.5…49ers at 11 is high I definitely wouldn’t take that over.
