The Cowboys are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 meetings in Philadelphia and 7-2 ATS in their last 9 meetings.
The Philadelphia Eagles deserve to be favored at home with the way they’re playing, as they have an MVP candidate in Hurts and their defense is top-10 across the board. With that said, the Dallas Cowboys offense is getting better by the week, and they have a defense that makes game changing plays, creates turnovers and is third in scoring defense. It’s hard to justify the Cowboys being this big of an underdog, especially on the road, where they’ve won 6 straight. Also, the Cowboys have won and covered 7 of the last 9 meetings against the Eagles. Give me the points with the road team.
