Dallas trying to find its legs in San Francisco

It’s put up or shut up time for the Dallas Cowboys. Starting the season 2-3 after Sportsbook at NFC favorites, Dallas got some fool’s gold when a judge ruled in favor of Ezekiel Elliott’s court case, temporarily lifting his six-game suspension. The Cowboys get a big boost with Elliott in the lineup and have shown they’re a different team when all the focus is on Dak Prescott.

SHARK BITES
  • San Francisco is allowing 24.3 PPG and Dallas is allowing 26.4 PPG.
  • The total has gone OVER in 6 of San Francisco’s last 9 games.
  • Dallas is 7-3 SU in its last 10 games on the road.

If this was a matchup from 1992, it would be the headline game of the week. Instead, it’s two struggling teams trending downward with a combined W-L record of 2-9. Although the Cowboys are 4-1 SU in the last five games against the 49ers, they’re 3-9 ATS in their last 12 games overall. The 49ers, meanwhile, are an amazing spread bet this season with a record of 4-1 ATS and keeping it close in each game despite never being favored. With that in mind, bettors might want to take the points with the Niners and watch the Cowboys implode.

I know all the trends would lead you to believe the UNDER is the way to go, but this should be an easy pick. The Cowboys defense shouldn’t be confused with the ’85 Bears. They’ve allowed over 30 points a game in three of their last four. The 49ers, on the other hand, are starting to hit their stride and have averaged 25 points in their last four games. With the TOTAL hovering around 47 points, expect Kyle Shanahan’s offense to create intricate ways to score points and get the most out of rookie quarterback C.J. Beathard.
