Dallas Cowboys vs. Arizona Cardinals Betting Odds
Dallas Cowboys vs. Arizona Cardinals betting odds opened at Dallas -5 as the road favorite. This was one of the most bet on NFL games of the week early on. The Sagarin Ratings list Arizona as the 5th best team and the line would therefore by Cardinals -2 ½. Gambling911.com doesn't buy this line at all.
90 percent of the betting public believed that Dallas could beat Arizona by 5 points. This line has only moved a half point down at a handful of online sports books.
Dallas is 1-7 ATS in their last 8 vs. NFC. Not good. They are also 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games following a ATS loss and 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games overall. These are brutal stats that go against Dallas to be sure.
The Cardinals are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 home games, which is not necessarily a significant stat but it‘s a positive one.
Looking at the head-to-head series between these two teams, at first glance it appears as if Dallas has the upper hand. They have won three of the last four games. But a closer look shows something far more significant that we simply cannot ignore. 9 of 10 wins in this series were delivered by the home team. And so far this season, Arizona has manhandled two teams at home that are looking good thus far: Miami and Buffalo.
Gambling911.com believes that Arizona should be able to cover the +5 point spread found at SBG Global, which by the way is giving away tons of cash bonuses when you open an online betting account.
