00:00 Dallas off of a rout last week of the Los Angeles Rams. They are four and nine against the spread

00:08 after winning by 20 or more points the prior week with Mike McCarthy one in eight in the last nine

00:14 times that they've done that. Again a credit to them Joe for being able to beat up on teams in

00:18 the way that they were able to beat up on LA last week but typically the following week is a letdown

00:23 for Dallas. Exactly and I've been potentially saying and I've said it all along I believe the

00:28 best team in terms of the NFC is hands down the Philadelphia Eagles. Why? Because of the front

00:33 seven that's only given up 65 rushing yards per game. Now we saw last week in terms of that battle

00:39 against Washington where Washington actually averaged 5.3 yards per carry only about 80 yards

00:44 on the on the ground but they had success. They're gonna need Tony Pollard in some capacity Donnie

00:50 to move the chains and stay in manageable third downs. I will say this though if you're looking

00:55 at the line and we looked about what Miami was getting in terms of that matchup right catching

00:59 around two and a half three the book actually believes that there's not a big drop-off in terms

01:04 of this matchup even though it's a divisional opponent and in Dallas has been inconsistent so

01:10 I look at this I think there's a lot of points in this ballgame but again if you're gonna buy

01:14 into Dallas I think you do it right here based off of last week if there's any more type of

01:20 follow-through or momentum Donnie it happens today there is no letdown against the Eagles.

01:25 It's gonna be a great one and in the city of Philadelphia I mean it's always a huge rivalry

01:29 going up against the Dallas Cowboys and the stakes are really high today 425 p.m. it basically feels

01:34 like they're gonna be playing by themselves and under the spotlight and rightfully so. If I'm

01:38 looking at this game objectively here it's gonna come down obviously to the line of scrimmage but

01:41 the reason I say that too from the Dallas Cowboys perspective is we expected much much better from

01:45 Pollard this year. After the first couple games like oh my goodness they don't need Zeke they don't

01:48 need anybody else it's really slowed down so it's gonna be on Dak Prescott here and the passing game

01:53 one of the profits I actually like in this game even though I don't think Dallas wins is Dak

01:56 Prescott to go over because I really don't think that the Dallas Cowboys are gonna be on pace to

02:00 get a hundred yards rushing today so everything is going to lean on Dak Prescott and of course

02:04 it's gonna come down to him but for me points because why I think you have to move the football

02:08 through the air big play special CD Lambs been fantastic the past two weeks and I think he's

02:12 gonna have another big game in Philadelphia.
