Why Bet on Cowboys versus 49ers
Dallas looked terrible in a 28-16 loss to the Arizona Cardinals in NFL Week 3. What was so shocking is that the Cowboys lost straight up as a -12.5 road favorite.
Although losing to the Cards stung, Dallas bounced back brilliantly in their last, a 38-3 pasting of Bill Belichick’s New England Patriots squad. Dallas didn’t just beat the Pats.
The Boys D pummeled Mac Jones, New England’s quarterback, by picking Jones off twice, running 1 interception back for a TD, and forcing a Jones fumble that the Cowboys ran back for a TD.

Why Vet on 49ers versus Cowboys
The San Francisco 49ers are excellent on both sides of the football. The defense is unreal at holding opponents to around 14 points per game and less than 285 total yards each contest.
The offense is the most efficient in the league. It’s not as flashy as a team like the Miami Dolphins’ offense, but before you know it, Brock Purdy, Deebo Samuel, Christian McCaffrey, and George Kittle have dropped 30 onto you.
Purdy is completing 72.3% of his passes. Brock has thrown for 1,019 yards and 5 TDs. He has yet to throw a pick.

San Francisco 49ers vs Dallas Cowboys Final Betting Prediction
Dallas has looked great because their defense has scored by running back interceptions and fumbles for touchdowns. On Sunday, Dallas’ offense is going to have to step it up.
The Boys have scored a single touchdown in their last 8 red zone trips. That’s an issue. If Dallas doesn’t pick it up on Sunday when they get into the red zone, San Francisco won’t just win and cover, but the Niners will blow out the Cowboys.
Dallas’ defense faces an offense that does everything well. As good as Micah Parsons is, he will struggle to drop back in coverage and contain Christian McCaffrey. Nobody contains McCaffrey.
In addition, Deebo Samuel is unstoppable. So if you try to double McCaffrey out of the backfield, Brock will find a way to get the ball to Deebo in space or he’ll throw to George Kittle.
Then there’s Brandon Ayuik, who also can beat any Dallas cornerback one-on-one. SF rolls to an easy win and cover.
