Dallas Cowboys (-5.5) @ New Orleans Saints

Man, it has to be tough being a Cowboys fan. On paper this team should be able to compete with any team in the league. In games against TB, LAC, and NE they looked like a team that could compete and really win games. Yet, they came out flat against KC, and got absolutely embarrassed by LV on Thanksgiving. Now they have what looks like a cake matchup against a Saints team led by Taysom Hill and no Alvin Kamara on Thursday night. OH! And their head coach has covid. But, in my humblest opinion, that’s only going to make them better. Kellen Moore should be the head coach of this team but he is “too young,” yet he is the best coach on that staff still. Quinn is the interim, but he knows better than to take control of this talented offense. The Saints have scored 20+ points in 4 of their last 5 games. Dallas has allowed 16 or more points during that same time span, so I see this being closer than people expect. The 47 O/U seems too enticing for two great offensive minds and Vegas actually agrees. Once the news came out that Taysom Hill was starting, the line actually moved a half point greater. Hill is a competent QB and has proven to us that he is a winner. He knows the Saints scheme way better than Simeien ever did. That comfortability will help him move this offense in the right direction. Give me the Over 47 and sprinkle the Saints +6 on a parlay for some juice.
