Straight back down to business and I have found a bet for week 8 that I like very much. I'm normally one to shy away from teams that have large handicaps to cover but in this instance I think the 9.5 points start given to Seattle at Dallas is not enough.
Originally I had thought this game was in Seattle where the Seahawks are 2-2 and I still made Dallas solid favourites. On the road Seattle are 0-2 conceding a total of 57 and scoring 27. Overall Seattle's numbers do not look very pretty, the two games they have won were Jacksonville who are 3-3 and St Louis 0-6.
Last year on Thanksgiving The Cowboys won this fixture 34-9 (Seattle have not improved since that game whereas the confidence in Dallas is gaining momentum) and Seattle Quarterback Matt Hasselbeck had a torrid time being sacked 7 times . The signs do not look promising for Hasselbeck having been sacked 5 times last week against Arizona and I think the Cowboys will batter him once again.
Dallas are rated 2nd in the NFL for offensive yardage averaging 419.3 a game with Seattle 23rd with 310.2.
Dallas have the added incentive of being able to tie for top place in the NFL East should Philadelphia beat New York and that would put Tony Romo and his men right bang in the race for the toughest division in the National Football Conference. Here's to "America's Team" taking Nutty Sports to 6 & 0.
1pt win Dallas -9.5 generally.
