(NFL) Dallas vs. Philadelphia,
Point Spread: 3.50 | -110.00 Dallas (Away)
Result: Win
Dallas played their worst game of the season on Thanksgiving against the Eagles. Romo wasn't himself and the Cowboys didn't run the ball or use TE Witten much. Dallas now has had 10 days to prepare for this game while Philly has only had the standard time and got beat up good last week versus Season. This gives Dallas a decided advantage in game-planning. While Sanchez has been mediocre since taking over for Nick Foles, Romo has been having another very good season and despite his back injury is currently rated #3 in Total QBR. He had a bad game against the Eagles last time out and I expect a much better performance from him this time around.
Dallas has played very well on the road this season (6-0 SU and 5-1 ATS) and with situation, value and a revenge spot all lining up on the Cowboys. Dallas has played much better on the road this season, going 6-0, and the visitor has been the play in this series, covering the spread in 6 of their last 7 meetings. I am still not a big believer in Mark Sanchez, and the Seahawks provided a blueprint last Sunday as to how to shut him down. The road team has won 7 of the last 9 meetings in this series, the Cowboys are 22-12 ATS as a pup since 2009 and the dog in Dallas games since 2010 is 51-23 ATS.
