Why the New England Patriots are a good bet -6 ½?

Cowboys vs Patriots Final NFL Betting Analysis

Baltimore beat the New England Patriots by rushing quarterback Lamar Jackson. Expect the Dallas Cowboys to employ similar tactics with Dak Prescott. Prescott has rushed for 193 yards and 3 touchdowns.

Even though that’s not close to what Jackson has rushed for this season, Dak averages 5.8 yards per rush. He can pick up huge chunks of yardage with his legs if he chooses to. Because Prescott can also beat the Patriots with his arm, New England faces a difficult task on Sunday. Do they commit to stopping the running game with Zeke and Dak? Or, do they sit in a Cover 2?

Dallas can underperform. They won’t versus the Patriots. This is a tough matchup for New England. Dallas becomes the second team this season the Pats have faced with a winning record. New England struggles. The Boys cover.
