The Dallas Cowboys are one of the deepest teams in the NFL. Their defense is incredibly deep, especially at linebacker with Jaylon Smith, Leighton Vander Esch and Sean Lee. Their offensive line will be incredibly good again, and it could get better with Travis Frederick returning from Guillain-Barré syndrome. Right now Dak Prescott is playing for his next contract. There’s a lot on the line for the Cowboys this season.
On top of that, the NFC East is half atrocious half great. Even if the Cowboys lose both games to the Philadelphia Eagles, the Redskins and Giants shouldn’t effort much of a fight. They do face the Patriots, Saints and Bears on the road, but the rest of their road games are fairly easy.
The NFL has dream matchups it seems with their best teams, but the Cowboys will stand to the test if their depth tells you anything. Sure, there are huge question marks surrounding QB and head coach, but they overcame such issues last year with much better Giants and Redskins teams. If the Eagles deal with more injuries, then the Cowboys could easily win this division. Yet, with this bet you can have them win nine games and you don’t lose? This feels like a no brainer.
