Dallas Cowboys vs. Philadelphia Eagles Sunday Night Football Betting

The Sunday Night Football action on the Week 8 is between the division rival Dallas Cowboys and Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday at Lincoln Financial Field and will be televised at NBC.

We might be going out a limb here but we can promise that this crucial NFC East battle won’t turn out the same way as last Sunday night’s 62-7 Saints rout of the Colts did.

In fact, our database tells us that this one should come right down to the wire: the Cowboys are 4-1 SU and ATS in this series since 2009, including an opening-round playoff win that year while the Eagles are a head-turning 9-0 SU and ATS after fighting the Redskins.

Yes, the Eagles did play the ‘Skins last, but in reality they are coming off a week of rest and that doesn’t look like it will help this season.

And that’s a shame as Philly is a solid 10-1 ATS as October favorites with rest while HC Andy Reid is 13-0 SU and 10-3 ATS in the regular betting season with extra time to prepare.

This is a tough call, though the Cowboys’ ground game (120 RYPG) versus the Eagles soft rush defense (124 YPG) makes the points tempting.

Vegas Sportsbooks Odds: Eagles listed as 3-point favorites versus the Cowboys, while the game's total is sitting at 51.
