plenty of teams have struggled to stop the impressive passing attack headed by Alex Smith.

Alex Smith will look like Joe Montana against that Cowboys secondary.

 I am far from an elite bettor and do not generally wish ill on people, but the original poster is a downright clown. It goes back to the college basketball season when he made deliberately ridiculous and outlandish statements to attract attention. He also fabricated "50K" parlays on a consistent basis. And, he entered my threads to talk shit, so it's not quite what you're making it out to be.

I'm a lifelong Cowboys fan, though, so I damn sure hope he's right.

dumb comment.

Smith threw for 124 yards and couldn't even lead his team into the end zone against the lowly Seahawks.

Cowboys win by 10.

dallas generated pressure on a very good jets offensive line.  san fran o line is horrible in pass protection and more known for their run blocking.  the problem is that the jets o line is right up their as the best run blocking o lines in the nfl and dallas did not allow them to run at all.  san fran has lost a lot of key defensive guys, especially nose tackle franklin.  dallas has improved the pass protection on their o line.  if rob ryan can pressure the douche alex smith enough, and im sure he will, it really doesnt matter if the dallas corners are injured and vulnerable.  dallas rolls here on the square play.

First of all lifelong 9er fan here. 

You all did may not have been here to  hear Harbaugh's interview on KNBR right after the game if you did you'll hear one of the  most frank interviews a coach will ever give. He basically admitted he has no idea still what his guys can do, he hasn't worked with them enough and that they more or less faked their way through the  seattle game, which they won on a couple special team freak plays. 

Don't overthink this one, dallas is a much tougher team with a crazy good d-coordinator, and most of all they DESPERATELY need this game, losing one of their two afc road games is no big deal but an nfc loss and going 0-2 is pretty much death to tie breakers. -10 should be more like it.  

Secondary concerns?  Have you seen the 9ers wideouts, fairly average and with any pass rush at all on smith they should get 70 plays off this game. Drop loads on the boys as much as it hurts

Lifelong Cowboy fan here and Dallas has historically been a scary bet when a road favorite.  This game could go either way and if you must place a wager in this spot, take the 49ers and the points.

I'm staying off this game because I see better value in other games.  BOL.

Everyteam has their blind homers.  The only reason why this not a sure Cowboys bet for me is because Ive witnessed all those disappointing losses the Cowboys were "supposed" to win -well at least were favorite.. including losses to the Cards, Lions, etc

Until my team shows consistency, I can't back them.  But either way, it's Cowboys or no play for me.  Cowboys will move the ball fine, it's the turnovers that could kill them.

OK let me get this striaght sf is 1-0  and won big 33 - 17 

dallas blew the game at jets having a huge laed as a TD dog lost by 3 points  they are 0-1  and fer sure now owrth as afvorite in my eyes !

I won a bet years ago dallas and redskins both 0-2 dalls home - 3 1/2  points emmit smith bust a long run just short of TD dalls kicks fg wins by 1 point !

was only a $50 bet every one thought i was nuts !

I agree, tough to travel to NY then to CA

however consider this, cowboys practice in Calif in training camp so in a way its like they are flying home back to their normal time zone as far as their bodies are concerned

San Francisco winning last week probably quadrupled the odds they would lose this week.  They want Andrew Luck.  Thanks Harbaugh for the automatic cover by the Cowboys!

 49ers are 3X garbage. The line is only that close because 49ers are 1-0. Flip it around and you'd give the 3
