Stephen Nover's NFL False Favorite

Point Spread: 3.00 | -120.00 Cowboys (DAL) (Away)
Result: Loss
Point Spread: 3.00 | -120.00 Cowboys (DAL) (Away)
Result: Loss
Look for an all-out, intense effort from the Cowboys, who trail the Commanders and Eagles by two games in the NFC East.
I doubt that will be the case for the Falcons, who are fat and happy leading the NFC South after defeating their main division rival, Tampa Bay, for the second time in four weeks.
Dallas lacks a ground attack. But Dak Prescott has a top-three wide receiver CeeDee Lamb and should have plenty of time in the pocket. The Falcons have just six sacks, lowest in the NFL. Atlanta is giving up nearly 27 points a game during its past five games. The Falcons have been without their best defensive back, safety Justin Simmons, and top linebacker, Troy Andersen.
After facing the 49ers, Lions and Steelers, the Cowboys are dropping way down in defensive class against this opponent.
Kirk Cousins has been great against the Buccaneers with an 8-to-1 touchdown-to-interception ratio. However, he has 6-to-6 touchdown-to-interception ratio in his other games this season. It's a huge bonus if Dallas gets back injured pass rushing stud Micah Parsons.
