Betting on the Dallas Cowboys

Surely the Cowboys will be wishing the preseason lasted longer than just three weeks, as their Week 1 performance was one to forget, losing 7-17 to the visiting Denver Broncos. They will be hoping to play better when playing at home this time around.
Beyond the loss, the Cowboys dominated in possession with 31:23 minutes with the ball and were only outgained by 8 yards by the Broncos. However, improving their offensive play concentration will be a pending task for them, as Dallas had a pass intercepted and their quarterback was overthrown twice, resulting in 21 yards lost.
Betting on the Los Angeles Chargers
- Record: 0-1
- Spread: -3.5
- Moneyline: -110
- Over/Under: 37.5
Like Dallas, the Chargers also ended up being defeated in Week 1but their performance was much better than that of their opponent’s and one could even argue that they deserved to win that game, in which they lost 29-22 to the defending NFL champion Rams.
The outcome could have been different had the Chargers not had a pass intercepted with 38 seconds left in the game, but they can be confident that they had more yards than their opponents despite having about 6 minutes less of possession, which shows that their offense is working well and can do a lot with short drives.
JefeBet Prediction
Based on what we saw in the first meetings of both teams, the Chargers appear to be a well-coached team capable of putting Dallas in trouble even when playing away from home, so we believe they will win this Week 2 matchup.
