NFL | Cowboys vs Giants
Play on: OVER 39 -110
Monday NFL Free play. My selection is on the 'over' between Dallas and New York at 8:15 pm et on Monday.
There are plenty of factors leading to what I consider to be an overreaction with this total dropping into the 30's. The last time these two teams met on this field, the Cowboys were victorious by a 21-6 score last December. That game saw a closing total of 43 at most books. Yes, Dallas is missing Dak Prescott this time around but Cooper Rush has proven to be a capable backup with notable wins at Minnesota in a primetime game last Halloween and at home against Cincinnati last Sunday. He wasn't asked to do much in those two games (he did manage to pass for 230 yards on just 19 completions last week) but I do think he'll be called upon more against a beatable Giants defense here. Note that the Cowboys ground attack should feast on a Giants run 'd' that has been torched for 5.0 yards per rush this season and will likely be without key stopper Leonard Williams on Monday. New York obviously has a much different offensive look with a healthy Saquon Barkley in the backfield. With that being said, I think it's only a matter of time before we see Brian Daboll's G-Men open it up a little more with their passing game as they try to figure out exactly what they have in QB Daniel Jones (and whether they have anything but dust at the wide receiver position). In that low-scoring 21-6 Cowboys victory here at MetLife Stadium last December, New York was forced to go with the less-than-dynamic duo of Mike Glennon and Jake Fromm at quarterback. Jones obviously represents a considerable upgrade at that position in this matchup. I'm not taking a large position but will recommend going the contrarian route given the combined 0-4 o/u mark these two teams have posted so far this season and the fact that six of the last seven matchups in this series have gone 'over' the number we're working with tonight. Take the over.
