Pick via FOX Sports Dallas Cowboys Insider David Helman: Cowboys Over 9.5 wins
It’s going to be an uncomfortable offseason in Dallas if this Cowboys team can’t manage better than 9-8. Yes, the schedule looks tougher than last year, but this is also a better overall roster than the 2022 version, which managed a 12-5 record.
Their defense is loaded, and their front office has done a better job of putting talent around Dak Prescott. The Cowboys figure to be one of the NFC’s elite squads, and there are no excuses if they can’t play like it. They don’t have to improve upon last year’s record, but anything less than 10 or 11 wins would be a disappointment.
Pick via FOX Sports Betting Analyst Sam Panayotovich: Cowboys Over 9.5 wins
The juice is pretty steep for my blood, but I’m not bold enough to go Under.
It’s simple with Dallas: If Dak Prescott stays healthy, this team will reach double-digit wins. I’ve got the ‘Boys favored 11 times, and their home game against Philadelphia should be around a pick ‘em.
The offense will score a ton of points, and the defense is one of the best in the entire league. Don’t overthink it.
