At first glance I was thinking ATL HUGE, but now after looking at it I will have to go with dallas, If the line was -3 or -2 I would be on ATL.

$$$$ might be on Falcons this week. Cowboys could be the play Falcons do not impress me yet.

I was thinking the same thing, but the bye week for Dallas at home is swaying me to take the cowboys.

I think Dallas favored at 4 is a gift. I'm on Atlanta +4. Atlanta wins this one outright. Hasn't dallas gone into every game this season being favored?

ATL has only lost to NEP--no shame in that. DAL on the other hand qualifies as a team the Falcs have beaten so far. Upset in the making!

Dallas is the play and here are my reasons
1. off a bye
2. Atlanta was outgained in total yardage last week including both rushing and passing
3. Public in love with Atlanta big Sunday night win making many remember their blowout in SF two weeks ago.
4.sme summed it up well a spread of -1 or 2 but -4 screams take ATL its a gimme. As "they" say Vegas don't have all those pretty buildings cause their wrong"
Look at my record and fade away but feel Dallas is the play on this one.

1. I agree
2. Yes I agree
3. Agreed.


HOWEVER, Dallas has looked god awful this year and I don't think a bye fixes that. Romo is finally being exploited, Dallas' D is getting picked apart, and Falcons are playing steady football.

The Falcons have a terrible secondary, that is their only problem, but they have always been able to (last 2 years that is) force the Qb to make mistakes, which Romo is prone to. Romo will have to play mistake free in order for Dallas to win, which isn't happening.

ATL has a wicked run defense, so the game will be in Romo's hands. Who do you trust more, Matty Ice or Romo? I'll take the steady QB.

Only thing going for Dallas is that they are off a bye and are at home. ATL is not that good of a road team. Maybe I'm picking with my heart, but Dallas just doesn't have it, and one bye week doesn't make the most overrated QB in the league good, nor does it make Wade Phillips less stupid.
