NFL Preseason Betting Preview The Dallas Cowboys will play their first game in their $1.15 billion dollar stadium on Friday as they host the Tennessee Titans in a preseason matchup that can be seen on Fox television. It is likely to be a rare occasion where the stadium gets more of the publicity than the game. “I had heard everybody saying it’s big and da-da, da-da,” receiver Roy Williams. “Then (I) finally saw it with my own eyes and it’s the greatest thing on earth.” Dallas is a 3 point favorite with a total of 38 at Bookmaker. The Cowboys first string offense looked good last week before leaving and they should get more time this week. Quarterback Tony Romo was 4 for 6 including a TD pass to Jason Witten in the game against the Raiders. The Cowboys will have more of their starters in the game on Friday as cornerbacks Terence Newman and Mike Jenkins are both expected to play after missing last week. The Cowboys have a good first half quarterback rotation with Romo and Jon Kitna but in the second half they have rookies Stephen McGee and Rudy Carpenter The Titans have played two preseason games since they opened the preseason in the Hall of Fame game against Buffalo. They won that game and they also won last week against Tampa Bay. The Titans have a very solid quarterback rotation of Kerry Collins, Vince Young and Patrick Ramsey and backup quarterbacks matter in the NFL betting preseason. Last week Young played well, going 9 for 14 with 131 yards and a TD. Young could get some playing time with the starters on Friday. Young could be extra motivated since he is from Texas. “Any time I am going back to Texas is big for me,” Young said, “That is home. There is a lot of love down there, a lot of respect.” These teams have met a great deal in preseason history dating back to Tennessee’s days as the Houston Oilers. The Cowboys have a 20-13 edge with the last win coming before the 2004 season. Pick: Titans

This week gave me plenty to rant about with all of the free agent moves in the NBA and the Dallas Cowboys looking like fools. Enter Mark Cuban and the Dallas Mavericks. Mark Cuban has been the most aggressive owner in the league. He made sure Jason Kidd did not leave for the big apple, and then added Shawn Marion to become a force in the west. There are other moves that he has made to solidify the depth of this club by grabbing Marcin Gortat from the Orlanod Magic. The Mavericks get my top grade so far in the NBA free agent market! It was reported yesterday by ex-linebacker for the Dallas Cowboys Greg Ellis that his former teammate DeMarcus Ware hid on the sidelines so he could play. While this is a noble gesture by Ware it may show something more about the Cowboys from a coaching standpoint. To have a player, even of the caliber of Ware miss a play is no big deal and that happens all the time. To even hear that coaches did not know where he was is not surprising because the sidelines get crowded and it can be easy to get lost or to “hide”. What does this say about the Cowboys coaching staff? The players must have zero respect for the coaching staff to do something like this. It shows that they don’t care what the coaches think and they don’t value their decision making so they take matters into their own hands. This kind of selfishness and disregard for the coaches is contagious and will spread. When this story gets around and gets some publicity it will be another black eye on Dallas and will make a rift if any between the coaching staff and the players bigger, which there obviously is one. The bottom line is that there needs to be a coaching change in Dallas and it needs to happen now.
This week there has been plenty of noise made in the free agent market. The race to get the best players on the market has turned into a knock down drag out between ownership. About a week ago I mentioned that so far to me the Pistons had made the best moves in the market, well know that has changed.
This is the first of what promises to be many rants about the Dallas Cowboys. They mess up so much and the team is in so much turmoil it is easy to pick on them and yesterday I just got another reason.

There is plenty to rant about in the sports world with all of the great games and players but most of my rants this week are about off the field actions. The rants will cover Jerry Jones and why his problems may be just starting, Alabama losing even when they are winning, and why you have to be rooting Michael Vick to play in the NFL again.
This week it was reported that the Alabama Crimson Tide football team will forfeit some wins. This is due to a violation for free textbooks. The school found 22 athletes that were misusing scholarships and giving textbooks to other students. This one was easy to rant about. It looks like that Alabama may forfeit some wins but they will not forfeit scholarships or championships and in college football that is all that matters. This is the second time that Alabama has been under the microscope for violations and this punishment was a joke. If you want these colleges to follow the rules they have to make the punishment severe which is why teams like Alabama and the Tennessee Volunteers make a mockery of the system and dare it to punish them. Until they do this type of behavior will not stop.
The only person that may have had a worst week then Alabama is Jerry Jones. It was announced this week that Jones and the Dallas Cowboys knew of an earlier collapse of the same facility that collapsed earlier this year injuring several people. Jerry has to come out publicly announce he was at fault, take the blame and pay some people. This is a media disaster for the Cowboys and it has to stop and it starts with Jerry Jones.
It was announced today that the Falcons released ex QB Michael Vick. This had to be done because no one was going to make a trade for the embattled player. As a fan of the game you want to see Michael Vick in the NFL again. Let PETA worry about beating him up and you can be assured they will. The bottom line is he did his time and if he has stayed in shape, he can be a star again. In his last season in the league he set rushing records for a quarterback and after he shakes off the rust he will be good again. With quarterbacks being hard to come by today in the game someone will take a chance on him and they will be rewarded.

NFL Betting Preview
Dallas Cowboys (9-6) at Philadelphia Eagles (8-6-1)
Sunday, 4:15PM Eastern
Betting Line – Bookmaker.com – Eagles -1.5, over/under 42.5
The final game of the regular season takes place this Sunday with a classic NFC East battle for playoff hopes. Week 17 promises to hold a number of exciting games with teams battling for postseason positions with the Dallas Cowboys and Philadelphia Eagles game being no different. Despite a loss last week, Dallas is still one win away from sealing a playoff birth. Philadelphia actually controlled their own destiny a week ago, but a loss to the Redskins ruined the majority of their chances. The Eagles still have a chance even though they will need a bunch of help. Still this NFC East battle has always hosted great games and this match-up should be another great battle.
Philadelphia stumbled last week in their 10-3 loss to the Redskins. The Eagles now will have to beat the Cowboys and hope for Chicago and Tampa Bay to both lose. While that may seem far fetched, this NFL season has proven that anything can happen. The Eagles have won 3 of their last 4 games with big help from an emerging offense. Philadelphia sports one of the better defenses in the NFL and they will be facing a very talented Cowboys offensive attack. On the season, the Eagles rank 3rd in the league in total defense holding teams to 272 yards per game. Philadelphia also host a 2nd ranked secondary that has only allowed 180 yards per game. The Eagles secondary will face a big challenge when Tony Romo and company come rolling into town. Philadelphia will look to capture a big victory at home and pray for some help in order to make the postseason.
The Cowboys elite offense has mellowed down a little towards the end of the season. However, the Dallas defense has played very well in the last few weeks. Before last week’s meltdown to the Ravens, the Dallas defense had held teams to only 13.8 points per game. QB Tony Romo has been rock solid this season racking up 3,265 yards and 26 touchdowns despite nearly missing a month of football. Wide receivers Jason Witten and Terrell Owens both have over 900 receiving yards this season and have totaled 14 touchdowns between the two. The Cowboys offense will look to move the ball through the air against a tough Eagles secondary. Dallas must win this game to make the playoffs because a loss would officially eliminate them from postseason play.
What to watch for…
The Cowboys beat the Eagles 41-37 earlier this season in an offensive shootout. This match-up will be considerably different. Look for the defenses to control the game. Eagles’ running back Brian Westbrook had a total of 3 touchdowns in that game and the Cowboys must find a way to contain him this time around. The running game will also be key for the Cowboys. If running back Marion Barber can have a big performance, the Cowboys should fair well.
Betting Trends…
Dallas is 4-2 ATS in their last 6 games, but has only gone 1-4 ATS on the road in their last 5 games. The Cowboys have found the under total in 4 of their last 6 games as well. Philadelphia is 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games. The Eagles have also gone on the under total in 6 of their last 9 games. Philadelphia is also 4-1 ATS against the Cowboys in their last 5 games in this rivalry.
Pick – In cold weather this match-up has favored the under strongly in recent years. Expect a defensive game. Take the under 42.5

NFL Betting Preview SBG Global Opening Line: Cowboys - 5 , Total 39 The Dallas Cowboys will look to close out Texas Stadium with a win on Saturday night as they host the Baltimore Ravens in a game televised on the NFL Network. The Cowboys have been in Texas Stadium for 38 years but this will be their last home game unless somehow the #6 seed in the playoffs would make it to the NFC Championship game and play Dallas. Next season the Cowboys are moving into a new stadium in Arlington. Saturday night’s game is critical to both teams Wild Card chances. SBG Global reports that early NFL betting has the public taking Cowboys at Home. The Cowboys played well last week defeating the defending Super Bowl champion New York Giants by a score of 20-8 as quarterback Tony Romo threw for 244 yards and two touchdowns. Romo will need to play well again since Dallas really can’t afford a loss. Philadelphia, Tampa Bay and Atlanta are also in the mix for a Wild Card and the Cowboys must play at Philadelphia next week to end the season. Dallas will be facing the league’s second ranked defense on Saturday as the Ravens are giving up only 257.5 yards per game. Baltimore shut down Pittsburgh for 55 minutes but the Steelers drove down and scored with 43 second left to win 13-9. “All game they didn’t make plays,” linebacker Ray Lewis said. “One drive they did.” The offense didn’t help the Ravens either as quarterback Joe Flacco had his worst game of the season. “We’ll be fine,” Flacco said. “We’ve got two games left to get some wins and prove that we’re a playoff team, and that’s exactly what we’re going to do.” The Ravens have defeated the Cowboys in both of their previous meetings, the last of which was in 2004. Here are the NFL betting stats for Saturday’s game. The Ravens are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 road games. The Ravens are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games overall. The Cowboys are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games as a home favorite. The Cowboys are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games in December. SBG Global Current Line: Cowboys - 4 , Total 39.5 The Over is 4-0-1 in the Ravens last 5 road games. The Over is 8-2-1 in the Ravens last 11 games as a road underdog. The Over is 6-2-1 in the Ravens last 9 games overall. The Under is 4-1 in the Cowboys last 5 games overall. Pick: Ravens 4 out of 5 units

NFL Betting Preview
New York Giants (11-2) at Dallas Cowboys (8-5)
Sunday, 8:15PM Eastern
Written By: Jay Horne
SBG Global Betting Line- Dallas -3, 45 O/U
The New York Giants have already clinched the NFC East and they look to earn the right for home field advantage throughout the playoffs. The Giants have a first round bye in the playoffs and they play a Dallas Cowboys team that is in dire need of a victory to keep their playoff hopes alive. The Cowboys are in a battle for perhaps the final wildcard position in the NFC and a loss would really hurt their chances. The Giants were upset last week by the Eagles and are ready to bounce back against the hungry Cowboys.
Dallas blew a 10 point lead with 7 minutes to go in the game last week against Pittsburgh. The loss really devastated the postseason outlook and the Cowboys must match-up better against the Giants than they did earlier this season. In the first meeting, New York pounded the Cowboys 35-14. Last week, QB Tony Romo struggled in the windy Pittsburgh weather. Romo and the high power offense need to have a big game this weekend to defeat most likely the best team in the NFC. The Cowboys have played horribly in the month of December over the years going 3-7 in their last 10 games in the final month of the year.
New York suffered a tough defeat from the Philadelphia Eagles last week 20-13 and will be trying to avoid another division defeat. The former Super Bowl Champions have been the class of the NFC all season led by quarterback Eli Manning. However, before last week’s game WR star Plexico Burress stirred up a bunch of media attention when he accidentally shot himself. The attention may have caused the Giants to lose focus, but things have settled down and New York will look to bounce back in a big way. The Giants have already clinched a first round bye in the playoffs, but another win would nearly guarantee home field advantage throughout the playoffs.
SBG Global Betting Line- Dallas -3, Total 45
The betting lines are favoring Dallas by 3 points primarily due to the fact this is a must win game and they should be giving their very best effort. The total for the contest has been posted at 45. The last meeting earlier in the season, the total in the game amounted to 49 points and this series has favored the over in recent years. The past 3 seasons the over total has gone on the over in 4 of 6 games.
Betting Stats –
Dallas has gone 4-2 ATS in their last 6 games and 4-2 SU in those 6 games as well. The Cowboys are only 6-12 ATS in their past 18 games while reaching the under total in 4 of the past 6 match-ups. New York is 7-1 ATS in their previous 8 games while having an amazing mark of 13-1 ATS in their last 14 games on the road. The Giants are an outstanding 14-1 SU in their last 15 games on the road. New York has also won the last 3 out of 4 games against the Cowboys.
Pick – New York Giants 3 out of 5 units

NFL Betting Preview SBG Global Opening Line: Cowboys - 12.5 , Total 46.5 The Dallas Cowboys will look to win their third straight game and stay in the playoff hunt as they host the Seattle Seahawks on Thanksgiving afternoon. The return of Tony Romo has sparked the Cowboys offense and Dallas looks like a playoff team again. Last week Romo hooked up with Terrell Owens on a number of deep passes in the Cowboys 35-22 win over San Francisco. Romo threw for 341 yards while Owens had 213 yards receiving. They could have similar numbers on Thursday against a Seattle secondary that is second worst in the NFL against the pass. SBG Global reports that early NFL betting has the public taking Cowboys at Home. The Cowboys are tied with Washington for second place in the NFC East and need a win to stay close in the playoff picture. Romo has led the Cowboys to wins the last two seasons on Thanksgiving, as Dallas won by an average of 29.5 points. Seattle may not present much of a challenge for Dallas. Even with the return of quarterback Matt Hasselbeck, the Seahawks continue to lose. Hasselbeck has not played well in the last two games throwing a number of interceptions and making bad decisions. “To be honest, I can’t wait to play another football game, because (Sunday) was not my best effort,” Hasselbeck said. “I’m not playing up to the level that I am capable of. I’ve got to fix it quick.” Former Dallas running back Julius Jones will get the start for Seattle despite the fact that Maurice Morris is playing better this season for the Seahawks. Here are the NFL betting stats for Thursday’s game. The Seahawks are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games in Week 13. The underdog is 4-0 ATS in the last 4 meetings between the two teams and the road team is 4-0 ATS in the last 4 meetings. The Cowboys are 9-2 ATS in their last 11 games in November. The Cowboys are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 Thursday games. The Cowboys are 5-11 ATS in their last 16 games overall. The Cowboys are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 home games. The Cowboys are 4-10 ATS in their last 14 vs. the NFC. SBG Global Current Line: Cowboys - 12.5 , Total 46.5 The Under is 5-0 in the Seahawks last 5 games in November. The Under is 4-0 in the Seahawks last 4 games overall. The Over is 5-2 in the Seahawks last 7 road games. The Over is 4-1 in the Cowboys last 5 home games. The Over is 6-2 in the Cowboys last 8 Thursday games. The Under is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings between the two teams. Pick: Seahawks 2 out of 5 units

NFL Betting Preview SBG Global Opening Line: Cowboys - 1.5 , Total 43.5 The Dallas Cowboys finally get quarterback Tony Romo back on Sunday and they are hoping he can save their season. The Cowboys started the season strongly but have played poorly in recent weeks, especially since Romo has been out. The Cowboys have lost four of their last six and are one game behind the Redskins in the NFC East and they are three games back of the New York Giants. Winning the division looks out of the question and making the playoffs is in serious jeopardy. A loss to the Redskins here would really put them behind the eight ball. Most people believe Dallas has to win at least five of the last seven games to make the playoffs. “Everyone says we are out of the picture,” Dallas wide receiver Terrell Owens said, “There’s seven games left. We’re not counting ourselves out by any means.” SBG Global reports that early NFL betting has the public taking Cowboys on the Road. The Cowboys will be counting heavily on Romo to upgrade the offense. They averaged 29.2 points with him but just 13.7 points per game without him. “I’ve done a lot of studying, and a lot of thinking about the game and trying to gain an understanding of what it is we may need to do a little bit differently or what we may need to continue to do or do better,” said Romo, “I feel very confident and excited going forward about things that we may have changed around, improved upon. I think this team has got a great second-half run in it. Hopefully we’ll be able to show that this week.” They should get a good test from a Washington team that is looking to bounce back from a poor effort against Pittsburgh two weeks ago. The big key for Washington on Sunday could be the health of running back Clinton Portis who is listed as questionable. Portis is second in the NFL in rushing this season and a big part of the Washington offense. The Redskins have won five the last seven games against the Cowboys. Here are more NFL betting stats for Sunday’s game. The Cowboys are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games in November. The Cowboys are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 road games. The Cowboys are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games overall. The Cowboys are 0-7 ATS in their last 7 vs. the NFC East. The Cowboys are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 meetings in Washington. The Redskins are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 vs. the NFC East. The Redskins are 10-2 ATS in their last 12 games following a bye week. The Redskins are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games in November. SBG Global Current Line: Cowboys - 1.5 , Total 43 The Over is 6-1 in the Cowboys last 7 games in November. The Over is 5-1 in the Cowboys last 6 games overall. The Over is 16-6-2 in the Cowboys last 24 road games. The Over is 10-4-3 in the Cowboys last 17 vs. the NFC East. The Under is 4-0 in the Redskins last 4 home games. The Under is 4-1 in the Redskins last 5 vs. the NFC East. Pick: Redskins 3 out of 5 units

NFL Betting Preview SBG Global Opening Line: Cowboys - 1.5 , Total 40.5 The Dallas Cowboys were thought of as Super Bowl contenders with Tony Romo at quarterback. Without him they may not even be a playoff team. The Cowboys will be without Romo until mid-November so it is up to backup quarterback Brad Johnson to lead the offense until Romo returns. The Cowboys were humiliated last week against the Rams and Johnson did not play well, throwing three interceptions. It may not get any easier for Johnson against a Tampa defense that is second in the league with 12 interceptions. The Tampa defense ranks 8th in the league in total defense and fourth in scoring defense. “We can accomplish our goals, but we can’t accomplish them if we don’t play better,” Dallas coach Wade Phillips said. SBG Global reports that early NFL betting has the public taking Cowboys at Home. The Bucs are trying for their sixth win of the season on Sunday. They dominated Seattle 20-10 last week in a game that was never close. The Bucs had a 402-176 advantage over the Seahawks in total yards. “I think the defense played great,” Tampa Bay safety Sabby Piscitelli said. “But the biggest thing was the offense kept us off the field.” Jeff Garcia played great again, throwing for 310 yards and a touchdown. He will be facing a Dallas defense that is without cornerback Terence Newman and Pro Bowl safety Roy Williams. Here are the NFL betting stats for Sunday’s game. The Buccaneers are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games on grass. The Buccaneers are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games overall. The Buccaneers are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 vs. the NFC. The Buccaneers are 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games in Week 8. The Cowboys are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games in Week 8. The Cowboys are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games on grass.

The late afternoon game on FOX television features the unbeaten Dallas Cowboys hosting the 2-1 Washington Redskins. Most people believe the Cowboys are the favorite to win this year’s Super Bowl based on their early season success. The offense is rolling with quarterback Tony Romo and the defense has been pretty solid. “We’re slowly starting to jell and that’s huge as we get farther along in the season,” defensive tackle Tank Johnson said. “That’s what the regular season is for, jelling for the postseason.” SBG Global reports that early NFL betting has the public taking Redskins on the Road.
The Cowboys lead the NFL in offensive yards and they are third in the league in scoring. “We’ve got a good football team, I know that,” Romo said. “But it doesn’t matter whether you’re the favorite now or the least favorite. The reality of it is you’ve got to keep playing games and you’re not trying to be the favorite in Week 3, you’re trying to be it at the end of the year.” The Redskins have scored 53 points in winning their last two games so Sunday’s game could be high scoring. Quarterback Jason Campbell has thrown for 647 yards and four touchdowns this season.
The Cowboys have won 11 of the last 12 meetings against Washington although they lost the last meeting when they rested starters last year after already clinching a playoff spot. Here are more NFL betting stats for Sunday’s game. The Redskins are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games overall. The Redskins are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 vs. the NFC.
