NFL has Dallas Cowboys among lowest projected win totals across NFC teams

[Rockport]

Win Total: under 7.5 (+110)

Make Playoffs: +190

Win Division: +700

Win Conference: +2800

Win Super Bowl: +5500

Here’s the Cowboys’ toughest three-game stretch: In Week 12, they host the Eagles, welcome the Chiefs on Thanksgiving Day in Week 13 and then head to Detroit for a Thursday Night Football clash in Week 14. It’s important to remember that if Dak Prescott and Micah Parsons, who each missed time in 2024, are available all season, Dallas’ ceiling increases, especially if rookie right guard Tyler Booker is able to get acclimated. The first-round pick had the highest floor and was my highest-rated lineman at his position in this year’s draft.

Good. Let’s them underestimate the Cowboys.

I really have no idea how this season will go, but I do find it funny that even the media is widely split on how the Cowboys will likely do this season with some suggesting they have a shot to have a great season and others saying they will be lucky to win very many games.

 

[Flamma]

That's a pretty generous payout for playoffs. Almost half the conference makes the playoffs. A +190 is saying we're not even close to average.

I like the over 7.5 too. But I'd never bet any over on wins. I think we're an 8-10 win team.

It's not so much them underestimating the Cowboys. People like to bet based on what happened the previous season. They have to account for that.

Vegas is going to lose some money.

No one knows with all the changes that have taken place.

Well, I just bet my life's savings, my house, and all my children's college funds on the Cowboys winning the Super Bowl.

I also took out a loan from a local businessman, "Ice-pick" Tony. I threw that cash in there as well.

......this is going to be great! Wish me luck.

...I got my money were at least making playoffs again. After that, is just bonus play.

 

[StarOfGlory]

I am tempted to drop a grand on the over.

 

[BoyzBlaster]

7.5 is probably about right when you had the next to last defense in the league and didn't do much of anything to address your problems.

That's the thing, the house always wins...

 

[jazzcat22]

Take the over.

Overall yes, but not on this one.

 

[Jipper]

Overall yes, but not on this one.

Their may be pockets within the various bets where people make money but I would guarantee if you couple all five of those together that vegas comes out on top.

I think 7 to 8 wins feels about right with the combo of new coaches, new scheme, difficult schedule and a few more big question marks on players and positions. That being said there will be more than enough bets going both ways to cover and then they will make all the bets on the playoffs and above when those don't happen to come out on top.

Not trying to be Debbie downer on the Cowboys but realistically the betting is set up for Vegas to win and I'd sure bet on the house

Best bet on the board will win more then 8 unless big injuries

 

[gtb1943]

unlike last season when you could pretty much know it was not going to be good, this season has lots of variables

Come on superfans. Time to put your money where your postings are.

Think before posting(TBP). They drafted the best pass rusher in the draft and will get back 3 or 4 starters on defense. They also improved their depth with some FA signings.
