Question Dallas -3 at San Francisco - Let's discuss

Interesting game - have to look at more than box scores in both of week 1 games.

Dallas played well for 3 quarters in every phase of the game but melted down in 4th quarter behind two big mistakes by Tony Romo. This is a team after last year that does not want to start 0-2. They do have two winnable home games after this (Wash & Detroit) to keep in mind.

San Francisco actually was close to blowing the game and almost losing to the Seahawks before the one and only Ted Ginn Jr had his "one great game every two years" and blew game open with a kickoff and punt return for a TD.

Can Dallas respond? Who covers?

one of those games where if you like Dallas you play at -2.5, SF you play at 3.5 or more. It'll probably go to 3.5.

Was leaning towards the Cowboys when I first saw the line, but didnt pull the trigger yet. Gotta look a little more yet and do it soon

At first glance I like Dallas alot. Dallas needs this game and I don't see San Fran scoring more then 13 points. I see Romo going for 300 yards and 3 td's, he usually plays well when they play a team they are "supposed" to beat. I see 24 -13 Dallas

I like Dallas here too. Question on dez Bryant's health.
Alex smith is not a great an but when he is good he's good at home.
I think they play like they did opening last year when they played the saints. They still lose.
if you don't like the -3 I'd be tempted to tease down Dallas and the o/u and take the over

I'm on board with Dallas to rebound. Looking at the way Romo got support from hes team mates, i think they are going to do anything and everything to win this one for Romo. Dallas 21 San Fran 17 or 20 ... If i real money wager this game with pro line i am boxing it with win and tie.

This line should be at least -5 for Dallas. This is the easiest game of the week based on the fact that SF can't put the ball in the end zone. They only kicked field goals against a pretty weak SEA defense with a short field most of the day.

I like Dallas this week but dfinitely a traap game for them. Play on east coast week 1 and then go out to the west coast for week 2. Possible let down spot after losing that Jets game the way they did (Just see week 1 and 2 of last year where they lose heartbreaker to Wash and then get thumped at home by Chicago). I think Garrett has them ready to play and will be the difference even with that high school secondary they will have out there.

Not sure about that. SF has not let up a 100 yd rusher in 23 straight games. Also not sure the word "pound" should be used when speaking of Felix and hi srushing style.
