GREAT INSIGHT AND CAPPING SKILLS ALONG WITH THE EDUCATED VOCABULARY

I've seen this game too many times. Dallas faces a team they should handle, but they play down to their competition. Dallas will fall behind early and come back in the fourth to win on a late field goal. 23-20 Dallas wins

Somewhere a "period" needs to be placed (first sentence especially). There are other grammatical errors, but do I even bother. I'm no teacher.

Oakland is 7-4 Against The Spread Overall, 6-4-1 if you count the Bronco game as a Push, depends when you bought the line.

Oakland is a very good 4-1 Against the Spread on the road this season. The only road game they did not cover was against the Chiefs, and that was a tight game, they were covering until Pryor threw a late pick resulting in a touchdown and then the game got away.

Cowboys may indeed cover, but please at least take a simple minute to research something before you go blurting out a bunch of false garbage via your keyboard.
SO WHAT!!!  THEY STILL SUCK.  Maybe you should try out for the Raiderette's cheerleading squad.

Its true that Oakland isn't great how about Dallas though?

2ND LAST in passing yards per game allowed

3RD LAST in rushing yards per game allowed

10 points is alot for that defense to give OAK who have the equal first rush yards per attempt (4.9) in the whole league

 Dallas' defense is now a lot better though.  You are looking at the whole season average, not how good they are right now.

In the last 3 games are dead last in conceding the most rush yards per game but your right they haven't been as bad against the pass

Tough game to cap, but really with the nonsense about Oakland and Dallas needing this game, style points, confidence etc. This is one of the most common mistakes bettors make in taking a team BC they should be amped BC they need the game. If anything it hurts Dallas given Romo and the Cowboys track record in must win scenerios. Oakland plays hard and needs/wants to win this game just as badly. I'm really rooting for Oakland here. They've been underestimated all year and really rooting for Matt McGloin. Overlooked in college had to walk on at Penn St and thrust himself into being a starting college QB. Goes undrafted, takes Matt Flynn's job and boots him out the door, and now he's being asked to lead an NFL team.

Lions game on the other hand, Packers clearly are one of the worst teams in the NFL if you take Rodgers off that team. There is also a trend that goes against teams coming off an OT game and playing on a short week that applied to the Skins vs Vikings a few weeks back after going to OT. Can't remember the exact numbers off the top of my head, but I think it's 1-12 ATS since 1989 on a short week off an OT game? Lions should blow the Packers out.

Finallly someone with some sense.  I agree that most people use senseless info to cap games...therefore it's why 97 percent of real gamblers are losers.  I seem to win consistently at NFL and NCAAB.  I won't regail you with all my great exploits but let's just say I've won a lot more than I've lost.  I don't have to prove that to anybody because I know they truth.  However I have been wrong before and have lost great sums of money.  I don't ALWAYS WIN and winning in the past is no guarantee of winning in the future.  I just like to sometimes RAZZ the cry babies on here and get them going especially about Dallas cause I"m a Dallas fan and so many people love to hate Dallas.  I know betting on your favorite team is a mistake that I learned from long ago.  But being a Dallas fan I know more about them than most other teams and it actually helps me.  I've won a lot of money on Dallas.  I don't think they are a very good team but they are pretty consistent this year at covering.  Mostly I"m just having some good ol fun on here but it's nice to see that a few people on here have some sense.

Ohhhhh.. So this is what it's about.. You should've just told us you were a Cowboys homer to begin with...

Just because someone bets against a team or bets the dog to cover doesn't make them a "hater" . We're in it to make money, not cheer against your precious team.

Cowboys 27-24, Raiders cover easily,
Oakland's defense is better than you think, Dallas's defense is still worse than you think, and look at Dallas/Romo in the last few Thanksgiving games.. close games.

Well I'm glad you are in it to make money.  I could tell you just how much money I've made over the years betting NFL but everyone would think I'm Lying etcc...and I don't have to prove it to anyone anyway.  I am a Dallas Fan, Die Hard, but that doesn't really have anything to do with why I'm picking them.  When it comes to money I'll pick against the Cowboys in a heartbeat.  Good luck with your endeavors to make money cause very few are successful at consistently making money year in and year out betting on sports.  I admit I suck at MLB and College Footbal and not very good at NBA.  My brother is a crazy genuis at picking MLB.  I don't claim to be the greatest Handicapper in the world.  But I would go head to head with anybody picking NFL AND NCAAB.  To be honest I like to post things on here just to get a rise out of people and their juices flowing.  You can get some really good opinions out of people that way...also a lot of hatred but it's all in good fun to me.  I'm in the Philippines and ahve been for a while taking care of some things so I haven't been able to bet any this football season but next football season I'll be back in the states.  I take sport gambling serious.  So serious I'm contemplating moving to Vegas so I can do it full time...just not on MLB COLLEGE FOOTBALL AND NBA...lol.  Unless I get a lot better at it.  I just find it to time consuming to try and concentrate on so many different teams and be good doing it.  Good luck.

Cowboys 27-24, Raiders cover easily,
Oakland's defense is better than you think, Dallas's defense is still worse than you think, and look at Dallas/Romo in the last few Thanksgiving games.. close games.

Dallas is great as a dog and terrible as a favorite of more than 3 points.  Still, I take Dallas here for a very light play. 

Last week I had a $10 10-team college and pro parlay that would have paid $8,000.  Nine teams came in.  The only loser -- the Oakland Raiders losing at home to the Titanics.   So I have cursed the Raiders to lose every remaining game this year; course they do not need my curse to do that.

BAAHAHAHA  HA HA HAHAHA!!!  Your so funny!  You should try standup.  That's the same thing people said last week about the Giants against the Cowboys and after the game, just like all of them, I won't hear a peep from all you Cowboy Haters.  So have fun spouting off your nonsense now, while your foolish picks are still unproven.  I want to hear all of you naysayers..AFTER you lose, let me hear from you then.  I'd bet good money nobody has the balls to admit they was wrong afterwards.  But I do, if I lose, which isn't as often as most of you, I have the guts to admit it.  Even a genuis like me can't be right all the time...just more often than about 99% of you goofballs....LOL!!!!

If the cowboys defense shows up and Romo goes into the mode he did against the Broncos, then they could easily cover, but my percentages go against that, and it's just not my line. But Every line is always debatable and nothing is ever a lock, so Good Luck!
