00:00Dallas now a five and a half point favorite on the road in
00:06MetLife against the Giants total 45 and a half DRS. I said
00:10this right before we got to the end of our opening hour. This
00:13is the 19th consecutive game for New York as the underdog
00:17week two last year was the last time they were booked as the
00:21favorite. They didn't win that game 3128. I think even
00:24covering as less than a field goal favorite. The Cowboys now
00:28laying five and a half on the road. The Giants have not been
00:32a great franchise as of late and the Giants are just one and
00:35two, but the Giants actually have been a pretty decent
00:38covered team in all of those games as an underdog 19 of the
00:43last 20 since the start of last year now about to be 20 of the
00:47last 21 and again an underdog in 19 consecutive games starting
00:53tonight 99 in one against the spread as the underdog
00:58including that outright victory in Cleveland in week number
01:02three. The Cowboys only win outright as an underdog against
01:06the Browns on the road in the land week number one. What do
01:10you make of this game with a five and a half point spread on
01:12a short week? Yeah, it's interesting because usually my
01:16thought process always goes to Ben the home team on a
01:18Thursday. It has a major advantage. The home team in
01:20this game is the New York Giants will play competent
01:22football the past two weeks and also you take a look at
01:25that spread at five and a half. So theoretically 2320 game
01:28Dallas gets the win the Giants cover, but also sometimes
01:32you're just looking at this game and saying to myself as
01:34already brought up one quarterback is really bad. I
01:36don't care that Daniel Jones threw two touchdown passes
01:38last week. Hallelujah. My goodness. It's amazing. He can
01:41actually do that. The one thing we do know is this game is
01:44going to feature two really good wide receivers CD Lamb of
01:47the Dallas Cowboys Malik neighbors for the New York
01:49Giants. Yeah, but this game is only going to feature one
01:51really good quarterback and that's regular season Dak
01:53Prescott who can put up numbers where you're hoping Daniel
01:57Jones can just run a competent offense for the New York
01:59Giants. You know what else we know? We have both of these
02:01teams don't really have a dominant running game just to
02:04say the least. I like Devin Singletary as a running back,
02:06but in that offense just okay. Not nearly as hitting as what
02:10Saquon Barkley is doing with the Philadelphia Eagles. That
02:12would have been nice to have the Giants for tonight with
02:14Saquon Barkley in the back, but they don't have them Rico
02:16Dowdle on the other side. You know, you take a look at some
02:19of the other guys are bringing in Deuce. Come on now at this
02:21point. You have an aging running back over there in Zeke
02:24that doesn't work for me. So I do think we might get some
02:27aerial shots here tonight from those two wide receivers, but
02:30just breaking it down coming into the season. We don't think
02:33the Giants have much of a chance in the NFC East. We
02:35thought the Dallas Cowboys could challenge the Philadelphia
02:37Eagles as the two top teams in their Washington. We'll get to
02:40the later time. They look pretty good as well, but just
02:42for my money. I just like what I'm hearing out of Dallas where
02:45the pressure is really ratcheting up on the season
02:48because if you drop the one in three, your season is quickly
02:51slipping away and it looks like Dallas is having some
02:53accountability. Ben right on the offense CD lamb get in front
02:56of that. Mike. Hey, I got my money. I'm supposed to perform.
02:59I can't be dropping passes and fumbling in the red zone here.
03:02That's not what it's about. I'll get that corrected and
03:04Dak Prescott basically calling out the entire offense,
03:06including their head coach as being unprofessional and
03:09unprepared for a football game as big as that last game was
03:12against the Baltimore Ravens. I think they tidy up tonight. I
03:15think they're the more athletic team with better
03:17talent and they win this game. Am I loving betting the road
03:20team on a Thursday? No, I'm not, but that direction I'm
03:22going with. I think the profits are a little bit better shots
03:25tonight, but that's the angle I look at tonight. Dallas should
03:27be shoring things up enough to beat the New York Giants.
