Dallas Cowboys vs. Philadelphia Eagles

The Dallas Cowboys vs. Philadelphia Eagles line hasn't moved all week after dropping a half point from Philadelphia -3 ½.  All the online sportsbooks were offering the line at Eagles -3 including Hollywood Sportsbook.  Nearly 85 percent of the public backing in this game was going Philadelphia's way.  The money line action was even.  Oddsmakers appear to believe there is a good chance that Dallas can cover here.  These two teams have essentially split wins throughout their last 10 meetings, making this game especially hard to bet on.

From Scout.com:

Philadelphia had its most impressive outing rushing the ball in Week 8 (180 yards, 7.5 yards per attempt), and will likely have talented featured back Brian Westbrook available for this contest. Look for the Cowboys to focus on making the Eagles one-dimensional.

Eagles QB Donovan McNabb can be very efficient if given time in the pocket, so we should see a lot of zone pressure packages from the Cowboys. Making McNabb improvise out of the pocket is the best way to derail the Philly air attack, and Dallas coach Wade Phillips will want an aggressive game plan in this matchup.

Tony Romo is one of the best in the league at keeping plays alive. It will be important for the Eagles to stay in rush lanes and keep Romo from sliding or stepping up in the pocket to find a throwing window.
