Femi Abebefe breaks down the line moves in Dallas vs Detroit as the Cowboys face a Lions team fresh of their Bye Week.
Transcript
00:00We just talked about my favorite team talk about your favorite team Dallas Cowboys now
00:04You are a traitorous fan
00:06You will go against your favorite team this week and you like the Detroit Lions and I like your favorite team not at the current
00:12Number I want a three and a half to bet Dallas. I kind of like how about them Cowboys family?
00:17What about the Lions and the Cowboys Sunday in Big D?
00:21Well, you might not like this news because the three and a halves no longer exist
00:25So you're not gonna be able to make a bet at least right now as we sit here on a Wednesday
00:29This was three and a half earlier in the week
00:32Like yesterday, we saw three and a half even monies and there's still technically is a three and a half year
00:36But it is plus 105 on the lion side
00:38So think about you having to lay minus 125 if you want to back Dallas plus three and a half and it's only here
00:43In Las Vegas at a sportsbook down the road for me
00:45But right now the totals hung out at 52, but we're pretty much three minus 110 across the board
00:50Now the big thing for Dallas is the injury standpoint because Detroit's healthy
00:54They're coming off the by rag now is good to go Brian branch their second year safety
00:58He's good to go like Detroit's as healthy as they can be but for the Cowboys
01:02It could be getting back a couple of big-time impact defensive players
01:07Micah Parsons, he did not practice today with the ankle injury
01:10But my guess is that there's a little bit of optimism around him now
01:12Jerry Jones spoke with 105 through the fan our odyssey station down in Dallas and he told them that it could look at that
01:19You know, we're plugging across the board
01:21He told them that it's looking like a little bit iffy like if he's close, but it's iffy
01:26So like Jerry Jones in typical fashion spoke out of both sides of his mouth and actually said nothing
01:30I think that we have to still wait to see if Parsons can actually be back
01:33I would want more clarity on that one
01:35But what we know right now on a Wednesday is that he did not practice
01:38The other one is cornerback to Ron Bland
01:40That could be a big addition to Ron Bland had the foot injury and training camp is missed all of the regular season up to
01:45This point today they opened the 21-day practice window and Ron Bland did practice in full today now
01:51Jerry Jones didn't make it sound like he was guaranteed to play and I actually think they're gonna wait it like one more
01:56Week on plan just cuz I don't know want to run him back out there, especially in this matchup
01:59But I think that the bland news and the Parsons I guess maybe
02:03Optimism might be what's pushing this down back to three hovering around this key number and also the fact that he's Dallas like they're not
02:09Like some like terrible team obviously like, you know, like they're not really great, but they're not terrible
02:13They're an average team and this is like really a lot of respect for Detroit
02:15So that's why we're sitting here at a field goal for me at this number
02:18I like Detroit the reasons that Baldy laid out in the last segment
02:22But I can see why people are kind of I guess drawn towards Dallas at these kind of a prices though
02:27But the Parsons is the big one and also monitor Duran bland as well
02:30If he's able to rejoin that secondary which then it'll be digs and bland which they haven't had
02:34For a couple of years now with the injuries. I don't think Dallas has like a tremendous upside this season
02:40I don't think you do either. I don't even think that's like an earth-shattering take right?
02:43I don't think the Cowboys can get to the Super Bowl
02:45I don't think they can win the Super Bowl, but it is like think about the last couple weeks
02:50Beat Pittsburgh on like the last play of the game basically on the deck touchdown to Jalen Tolbert if the Giants were even
02:56Semi-competent in that game a couple weeks ago on Thursday night the Giants I probably should have won that game
03:01But when instead Dallas wins both and now I can absorb a loss to Detroit and still be at 500
