Week 6: Redskins vs Cowboys

Question

This one stuck out to me. Why are the Cowboys getting -5.5 on a divisional rivalry game?

-Redskins had a bye week, getting 2 very good defensive players back from suspension, and most importantly, 1 game from being in 1st place?

Plus RG3 playing much better? Remember what Adrain Peterson did in mid week last season?

Give me the 5.5. Taking the Redskins to win s/u.

Give me the point

I agree with public betting heavily in Dallas. Can see this being pushed to -7. Will wait in the meantime. Thanks!

Highanddeep-
Dallas wins: Giants and Rams.
Redskins win: Raiders.

- Doesn't say much about both teams.

Think Cowboys are overvalued here. If anything this game should be set at -3.

Redskins will play better defensively here. Saw improvements on this team their last game.

They gave up 31 points to a horrible Giants team.

Think the Redskins is the better team here. Don't think the public sees this.

Sunday night game? Don't you think RG3 will want to prove something to doubters.

Finals score: Redskins 28 Cowboys 10.

Yes, think this game will go under the totals also.

Huge cowboys fan and I love the play for the Skins.

In the last 10 games the cowboys have won 6 of them. Margin of victories are 4, 1, 17, 3, 2 and 3 points. These games for whatever reason are always close.

I don't trust the team to put a full "great" game together. Shanahan isn't stupid. He has seen what Rivers and Peyton did to the defense and is getting ready. I think this reaks of a 27-24 type of game. Not sure who wins but the Skins winning wouldn't be a huge shock to me.

LB_Dirtbags · Answer

I agree Cool_Arrow. Think the Redskins won both games last year also.

Think the Redskins offense finally clicks for 4 quarters here and their D plays well and contain Dallas. 1 extra week to prepare and rest is a big plus at the NFL level, plus think Redskins is a better all around team.

Cool_Arrow · Answer

LB skins did win both games last year and it could happen again. I have a hard time seeing the Cowboys crush the Skins and given that only 1 of their last 6 victories would have covered the spread makes me not back my Cowboys in this situation.
