Ravens big odds favorites over Cowboys in Week 13

Despite all their issues, the Baltimore Ravens are heavy NFL odds favorites over the Dallas Cowboys in Week 13.

The Baltimore Ravens might still have a bunch of players on the Reserve/COVID-19 list as they get closer to Tuesday’s game against the Dallas Cowboys. But the potential of not having players like quarterback Lamar Jackson and defensive end Calais Campbell isn’t deterring oddsmakers from believing in Baltimore.

According to BetMGM, the Ravens are 7.5 favorites over the Cowboys in Week 13. If you haven’t been following sports odds, that’s a massive spread in Baltimore’s favor and one that should be enticing to bet against.

Granted, the Cowboys are 3-8 right now and starting Andy Dalton at quarterback after a season-ending injury to Dak Prescott. Dallas hasn’t looked particularly good this season and they feature the absolute worst defense the league has to offer. But that doesn’t discount the predicament the Ravens are in currently either.

With Jackson and a handful of other impact players still on the Reserve/COVID-19 list, there’s a legitimate chance they won’t be able to play Tuesday. Even if they come off the list in the next day or two and were perfectly healthy, it would give the players practically no time to practice after days away from the team facility. And with Robert Griffin III on injured reserve, that would mean Trace McSorley would be the starting quarterback. Considering he went 2-of-6 for 77 yards and a touchdown against the Steelers Wednesday, that’s not exactly the best version of the offense Baltimore could put forward.

It’s worth noting that the Ravens have had the Cowboys’ number overall. In five games against Dallas, Baltimore is 4-1. However, these two teams haven’t met in the regular season in more than four years and their previous records are certainly no indication of how either team looks right this minute.

It’s always a gamble but if you’re the betting type, it might make more sense to take the Cowboys and the points here. While it’s fair to assume the Ravens will win this game, there’s plenty to point to a close finish or even a Dallas upset.

NFL team win total best bets: How many games will the Dallas Cowboys win in 2020?

Assessing the Dallas Cowboys’ projected win total for the 2020 NFL season, with best bets for their Over/Under.

How many games will the Dallas Cowboys win in the 2020 NFL season? We look at BetMGM‘s projected win total and the Over/Under odds, while looking back at the 2019 season and key offseason roster changes.

Dallas Cowboys’ 2019 season

The Cowboys went into the final month of the season with a great chance to make the playoffs. But they fell apart down the stretch, going 2-4 in their final six games to miss the postseason with an 8-8 record. That was despite ranking sixth in points scored, first in total yards, 11th in points allowed and ninth in total defense.

On the betting side, Dallas finished 9-7 against the spread and posted a 10-6 Over/Under record.

Dallas Cowboys’ 2020 offseason changes

The Cowboys underwent a lot of changes this offseason. They overhauled their coaching staff by letting Jason Garrett go and replacing him with Mike McCarthy, who brought in his own assistants.

They had one of the best drafts of any team, starting with WR CeeDee Lamb (Oklahoma) in the first round (17th overall). CB Trevon Diggs (Alabama), DL Neville Gallimore (Oklahoma) and CB Reggie Robinson (Tulsa) were their next three picks. They also signed DTs Gerald McCoy and Dontari Poe in free agency, as well as S Ha Ha Clinton-Dix.

Projected wins: 9.5 / OVER: -139 / UNDER: +115

The Cowboys have alternated strong and disappointing seasons since 2013, winning fewer than 10 games one year and more than nine the next. They only won eight in 2019, so they’re due for double-digit victories in 2020, right?

They should win at least 10 games, but not because of that trend. The NFC East remains one of the weakest divisions in the NFL, especially with the Giants and Redskins still rebuilding around young quarterbacks. The Eagles won the NFC East last year and have done well this offseason, but they’re really the only true threat in the division.

The Cowboys don’t have the easiest schedule, with the Ravens, Vikings, Seahawks and 49ers on it, but they also get breaks with seven of their games coming against the Redskins, Giants, Falcons, Bengals and Browns.

Bet the OVER (-139), but it’s far from a lock that the Cowboys will finish with more than nine wins.

What are the odds the Dallas Cowboys will win Super Bowl LV?

Breaking down the Dallas Cowboys sports betting odds of winning Super Bowl LV.

[jwplayer cLm2Z5wU]

Do the Dallas Cowboys have what it takes to win it all this year? We look at the sports betting odds around their chances of being the 2021 Super Bowl champions.

The joy of the preseason is that all fan bases – OK, almost all of them – have hope their favorite team will be holding the Lombardi Trophy at the end of the year. However, there can only be one…

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl LV odds

According to the oddsmakers at BetMGM sportsbook, the Cowboys Super Bowl odds are at +2000 to win the championship this season. In fractional odds, that’s 20/1. It implies the team has a 0.0476 chance of winning.

Are you new to sports betting? Future odds like these give sports bettors, both experienced and casual, the opportunity to place an early wager on the team(s) they think will be this season’s NFL champion. As the year passes, the odds will move – the better a team becomes in the eyes of the oddsmakers, the shorter the odds will become. The worse a team looks, the longer the odds will be. If a team starts to receive a large number of bets on them, sportsbooks will also start to move the lines up and down to help cover their bases, too. By placing a bet early, it gives you the opportunity to receive a better potential return on your wager assuming those odds will later become shorter and, more importantly, less profitable.

A $100 wager on the Cowboys at +2000 odds returns a profit of $2,000 should they go on to win the Super Bowl this year.
