Ravens-Cowboys Super Bowl Future

Risking $50.00 To Win $5,400.00 (+10800)

Reasons: I think Bmore is hands down class of the AFC. Best Defense by far, great players, great coaching, great schemes. O-Line & Ray Rice is just as solid. I'm not in love with Flacco but he's certainly capable considering other pieces around him.

As for Dallas, like Dr Jack said in a post a few days ago, they remind me of Green Bay last year. A lot of positives couples with just enough negatives to be 3-3. All 3 losses vs NYJ, Det & NE were certainly winnable and mistakes that cost them games were definately correctable. Their D is FAR better than I expected this early in the season. People will cite Romo as difference between Packers last year and Dallas this year, and while Rogers is on another planet, I think Romo at the end of the day can get the job done. If there's one concern of mine with Dallas its their running game. I'm dying for them to offer someone like Oakland (who would welcome a draft pick at this point) a 3rd rounder for Michael Bush--a tough, durable back to complinent what they have.

All in all, I like the odds though. Outside of GB, there's no one team that strikes me as hands-down better than Dallas in the NFC. I think the same can be said about Baltimore in the AFC.

Thoughts??

I like the odds, Im in on the Cowboys preseason at only 17-1, lots more value now

Ravens are the best team in the AFC IMO too

I don't disagree with this, just funny how the Cowboys keep losing yet we all love them more every week. Good luck.

^I love the cowboys... losing. Can't stand them.
but they're a good team and I can see the value here but it's still a longshot.
ravens however is much more likely.
