Eagles vs. Cowboys Preview and Betting Odds

Last Updated on November 5, 2023 11:07 am by Erwin Noguera

We are currently hitting the 9th week out of 18th of the Regular NFL Season, which means we are halfway through, and things are about to get heated.

In an excellent show for a Sunday afternoon, we have two teams at great levels that, casually, share the same división. For many, it’s a matter of time before the locals seal the first place. However, the Cowboys don’t want to dilapidate the chance of causing a change in the power balance. Although, they have to surprise in, maybe, the most fearsome ground in all the NFL.

This is a fight in the NFC East, and both teams are doing pretty well in general, so fans should be eager to see this showdown.

When:

Sunday, November 5th at 4:25 PM ET at Lincoln Financial Field

Moneyline odds:

Eagles -160

Cowboys +140

Why Bet on the Eagles?

The Philadelphia Eagles are coming as the NFC East leaders, with 7 wins and a single loss, as they try to get another strong win streak.

Last week against the Washington Commanders, the now locals run game was lackluster, picking up a season-low 59 yards and a touchdown on 22 carries. 

It’s worth noting that quarterback Jalen Hurts, who is dealing with a left knee injury, posted a career-low (as a starter) 6 rushing yards on four carries, with two of them being kneel-downs and another being the failed ‘tush push’ that resulted in a fumble.

Why Bet on the Cowboys?

The Dallas Cowboys are right behind the Eagles in the NFC East, currently sporting a 2 matches win streak, going at 5 wins, and 2 losses in their campaign. Having a game less than many teams, a win here would put them in the same line as most of the best teams this season, like the Chiefs and Lions.

The 5-2 Cowboys have had some high highs (a 40-0 shutout of the New York Giants in Week 1, for example) and low lows (a 28-16 loss to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 3 and a 42-10 loss to the San Francisco 49ers in Week 5). On the whole, they have been playing strong football, boasting the second-ranked scoring offense and fourth-ranked defense in points allowed.

Eagles vs. Cowboys Final Betting Analysis:

The Eagles could plant themselves firmly in charge of the NFC East and the conference as a whole with a win, which would put them 2.5 games ahead of the Cowboys going into their bye week. A loss, though, would give Dallas a chance to erase the gap between the two teams by the time the Eagles play their next game, later in November.

This game will likely come down to the Eagles’ elite offense against Dallas’ elite defense. Good offense typically edges good defense, and this Cowboys group has been edged before. We think the Eagles will get the notch.

Go for a win in the Philadelphia Eagles’ Moneyline. If you bet $100 at -160, you’ll gain $62 for a total payout of $162.
