Great game in fact Dallas with 10 game winning streak is playing. Queens 1-5 SU & ATS last 6 while Cowgirls 10-0 SU & 9-1 ATS last 10. Pure case of public favorite looking like 24-17 type winner. However, these game are always interesting as Viqueens season on line. Thoughts from forum?

I'm as big a Cowboy fan as they come but this line stinks Vegas begging for Dallas action unless I'm missing something that would justify this line being so low !!!!

I dont think its low really. If cowboys were at home using 3 pts for home field this game would he 9.5 or 10 which is about right i think.

interesting turnover stat

if my numbers right, dallas defense hasnt created a turnover in their last 4 games

conversely their offense hasn't turned it over in their last 2 - and only twice *twice* in their last 5

obviously they take care of the ball, and when you do that good things (tend to) happen. one would venture to guess that for a team on such a hot tear, that their defense would be a bigger part of the equation, though ---based off turnovers only--, dallas D hasnt been all too ball hawking, or instrumental

and lets be honest, no one was under impression dallas been winning with stout def. --their defense doing what supposed to, when have a dominant running game, off line and qb that makes plays when there, but doesnt unnecessarily force the issue, AND is careful with the ball.

all that translates into wins.


fwiw, i think theres at least 3 turnovers in this game. 2 for sure coming from dallas offense. to keep a streak like they're on, going - is hard to do. if they prove they're that good, and do (and continue avoid srippling mistakes), i'll tip my hat to them

turnovers then too, more often lead to better scoring chances, that in my mind will find game going over

that too, works with my thought that when the fav covers, game tends to go under, whereas if dog wins(covers) games tend go over... so then

min +3, ml and over


sidenote: MIN HC mike zimmer apparently had to have emergency eye surgery, that is unknown if will be able to be on sideline for tonights game

i'd think, at very least, look for special team players play with lil more moxie, as their guy stepping up to temporarily fill shoes - and prolly wanna make a play for him

the Vikings will have special teams coordinator Mike Priefer fill in as the interim head coach as to not disturb the offensive or defensive routines
