NFL Monday Night Betting Preview: Cowboys And Redskins Tangle
The Dallas Cowboys and Washington Redskins has been one of the biggest, baddest, rivalries in the NFL for decades. The NFC East foes have met over the years in many big games, and tonight they will square off once again, this time with first place in the division at stake.It is true that it is only week three of the NFL season, but the Redskins and Cowboys are both looking to take an early step in showing that they are the class of the leagues toughest division. The Giants beat the Eagles on Sunday, and the Cowboys can join New York and Washington with 2-1 records with a win.If the Redskins should prevail, they would be the only undefeated team in the division, and they would be two games ahead of Dallas and Philadelphia. Washington won its first two games by playing solid defense, and eliminating mistakes. It was the kind of effort that Mike Shanahan teams have come to be known for over the years.Dallas is a couple of untimely plays away from being undefeated as well. Dallas, just one week after giving a game away to the Jets, showed their character late against San Francisco. Trailing for most of the game, quarterback Tony Romo led the Cowboys to a comeback victory. Tonight, Dallas can show which team from the first two weeks will become a trend.Odds makers have installed the Cowboys as a 3.5 point favorite. The total for the game is forty-five. The Cowboys have an explosive offense, but it has been prone to making mistakes in the first two games. Washington is relying on a renewed faith in the running game and running back Tim Hightower.Redskins detractors have pointed to their schedule so far as the reason they have not yet lost. If Washington can defeat Dallas on the road on Monday night, it would go a long way towards silencing their critics.Dallas, meanwhile, has been listening to the critics for years. The Cowboys have not lived up to expectations and it led to former head coach Wade Phillips being dismissed in the middle of last year. Jason Garrett has taken over the team and has pumped some life into the Cowboys’ faithful. September 26, 2011Posted By Vincent Tapoglia IIIStaff Editor, CasinoGamblingWeb.comSubmit News!
