Saints at Cowboys picks and predictions
Prediction
Cowboys 35, Saints 21
Moneyline
PASS.
The Cowboys (-275) will absolutely take care of business Sunday. I don’t want to bet nearly 3 units on it, though. I’ll save my bet for the spread.
Against the spread
BET COWBOYS -6 (-115).
The Cowboys were unbeatable at home last season, finishing a perfect 8-0 (not including the playoffs) and putting up an impressive 36.8 points per game. They also went 6-2 ATS at AT&T Stadium in the regular season, winning by an average of 21.5 points.
With LB Micah Parsons leading a relentless defense that gave Watson all kinds of trouble last week, expect Dallas to make things tough for Carr. The Saints signal-caller looked good in Week 1, but he’s up against a much stronger defense now. With Dallas’s ability to pressure the QB, taking the COWBOYS -6 (-115) feels like a smart move.
Over/Under
BET OVER 46.5 (-115).
The Cowboys and Saints came out swinging in Week 1, each scoring over 30 points, which hints at another high-scoring game. The Cowboys have hit the Over in their last 3 games, and the Saints have done it in 3 of their last 4. Plus, when these teams meet in Dallas, the Over has cashed in 4 of the last 5 matchups. With both offenses rolling and past trends backing it up, the Over seems like a smart pick in this one.
