Dallas Cowboys vs. New Orleans Saints: Spread Analysis and Pick Prediction
 

The Dallas Cowboys are 6-2 ATS the last eight times they've been listed as road dogs on the NFL point spread. But the New Orleans Saints are 19-4 ATS their last 23 games as favorites at home.

Something's gonna give when the Pokes and Saints meet at the Superdome Sunday night.


Point spread: Saints opened as 6.5-point favorites; the total was 52.5. (Line updates and Matchup report)


OddsShark.com computer says: 30.5-27.4 Saints


Why the Cowboys can cover the spread

Dallas just got RB DeMarco Murray back, and while he only accounted for 50 yards from scrimmage in Sunday's come-from-behind victory over Minnesota, he should see his touches increased this week. And a little more balance on offense would be nice for the Cowboys, especially going against a Saints defense that just gave up 198 yards on the ground to the Jets.

I don't care anything about the odds, the spread, or any of that other garbage. I just want a W in the right column.

Man I really hate the Cowboys. I would love to beat the snot out of them.Losing to the Jets should light a fire under them. This is a game that could define our season. Lots of this team's weaknesses were exposed by the Jets. Saints should win this game by at least a TD.

not really an analysis, more like a list of facts

the analysis is this- with a 53 O/U, expect a lot of points. That is an extremely high line, and favors the Saints.
If Dallas can keep up offensively, they have a chance

Dallas is known to run Demarco for positive gains all first half, only to abandon it in the 2nd half (sounds sort of familiar?).
