Pick via FOX Sports Betting Analyst Will Hill
I’m sure many bettors will be inclined to use 6.5 or 7-pt teasers to get the Cowboys under a field goal, and I can’t argue with that logic. But if you’re playing it straight up, the favorite is the way to go here.
The Cowboys do nothing but beat up on mediocre teams, and that is certainly what the Seahawks are starting to feel like. The last four Cowboys victories have come by 35,23,32 and 23 points.
It’s yet to be determined if they can win an important game, but winning by a wide margin against teams they’re much better than has been proven time and again.
Expect the Cowboys to roll once again.
PICK: Cowboys (-9) to win by more than 9 points
