Dallas Cowboys (-105)......(X-Large) to win NFC East
This will be my only futures wager
This will be my only futures wager
Cowboys as a home fav is a fade. Has been for awhile...I agree with you. Their schedule is the toughest in the East. They have two games away back to back against East div Wash on Oct 25 followed by Phil on NOv 1. I suspect they won't return to DAllas to meet Phil on the 1st of Nov. Last game of the season at home against NYG. For whatever reason, the Giants play Dallas tough.
Opening schedule looks tough but it doesn't go against the East. If I were a betting man I would suspect Dallas to be FAV at home against ARIZ but this game is before the road trips. Depending on the pts it looks like ARZ would be a good bet now.
Phil appears to have an easy schedule against the East. no back to back travel to East teams but they do have back to back east games towards the end of the season. Balt facing Phil on Oct 18th might be a good bet. Phil coming home after playing Pitt facing Balt with back to back East div games starting Oct 22. Looks interesting now. Depending on pts.
Wash sees back to back east games in mid Oct. Wash has a tough home stretch Oct 4th Balt, Oct 11 LAR, before they play their next two games against East div teams. Looks like right now LAR might be a good bet. Suspect Wash might be wounded coming off a game with Balt and looking ahead to East div games.
NYG has a stretch against the East on Oct 11 vs Dallas, Oct 18 Wash both at thome and a trip to Phil on Oct 22. TB visiting NYG on Nov 2 might also be a good bet. NY coming off of tough East games and TB with no impact on the East Div. Once again, it depends on the pts. Just tlooking at the horizon.
