The Dallas Cowboys and Atlanta Falcons play on Sunday in one of the best games of Week 10 in the National Football League. The Dallas Cowboys have won three straight games, and are in second place in the NFC East. The Cowboys are coming off a thrilling win last week at home over the Kansas City Chiefs. The Atlanta Falcons, who are the defending NFC Champions have started the season with a 4-4 record. The Falcons are in third place in the division behind the Saints and Panthers. The Dallas Cowboys are -3.5 at MyBookie.

Cowboys Seeking 4th Straight

The Dallas Cowboys will be without their top running back, and top offensive threat Ezekiel Elliott. The running back is starting his six game suspension. Alfred Morris is expected to get the start for a Cowboys team that is second in the league with 148 rushing yards per game. The Cowboys are 4th in the league with 28.3 points per game as well.

The Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott needs just 182 to get to 2,000 passing yards this season. He has 16 touchdowns, with Dez Bryant accounting for 4 of them. The Cowboys in their three game winning streak have scored 101 points. The Cowboys last loss was at home against the Green Bay Packers.

Falcons Need a Win

The Atlanta Falcons had an early lead last week against the Carolina Panthers, and then fell flat and lost. The Falcons are just 1-2 when playing at home this season. The Falcons beat the Packers in their home opener, before losing back to back home games against the Bills and the Dolphins. Atlanta is coming off a three game losing streak.

The Falcons have seen Matt Ryan, who won the MVP a season ago struggle a bit this season. The quarterback has a QBR of 59.5 on the season, and has thrown just 11 touchdowns. Julio Jones, his top target has been into the end zone just one time this season. The Falcons are scoring just 21.3 points per game, and in all four of their losses – they have scored 17 points or less.

Cowboys Down Falcons

The Dallas Cowboys are the defending NFC East Champions, but are going to have a tough time repeating this season. The Cowboys do get a chance to play the Philadelphia Eagles twice in the final few week of the season, but they are behind the eight ball. The Cowboys need a win here if they are going to keep their divisional chances alive.

Look for both teams to play well, but in the end, the team that wins is the better defense. That’s the Dallas Cowboys. The Cowboys are going to keep the Atlanta offense struggling, and a defensive stop is going to be the biggest key in this game. When you are betting on this National Football League take the Dallas Cowboys on the road. The Dallas Cowboys+3.5 is the bet to make here.  Bet on the Dallas Cowboys +3.5 at MyBookie.
