Dallas Cowboys at Philadelphia Eagles odds, picks and predictions

Payton Shanks | Staff Writer

The Dallas Cowboys (5-2) and Philadelphia Eagles (7-1) meet Sunday. Kickoff from Lincoln Financial Field is set for 4:25 p.m. ET (FOX). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook's lines around the Cowboys vs. Eagles odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

Dallas has won back-to-back games since losing 2 of its first 5. The Cowboys have had a very middle of the pack offense this year, only averaging 338.0 yards per game, good for 15th in the NFL. Dallas, however, has hung its hat on defense as its defensive unit allows only 287.4 opponent YPG, which is 3rd in the league. Dallas' defense has allowed an average of 410.5 YPG in its 2 losses.

The Eagles' controversial "tush push" play has been very rarely countered, and the WR duo of A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith has looked unstoppable lately. Brown, who has been having a career year thus far, has racked up 939 receiving yards and 5 receiving TDs on 60 receptions.

Cowboys at Eagles picks and predictions

Prediction

Eagles 31, Cowboys 24

Moneyline

BET EAGLES (-155).

My biggest worry for this Philadelphia squad is how turnover prone it has been this season, especially when going up against this top-notch Cowboys defense. The favorite has won in 7 of the last 10 meetings with these teams, including in each of the last 4. Each of Dallas' 2 losses came on the road this year, and everyone knows about Dallas' habit of shrinking in big moments.

Against the spread

LEAN EAGLES -3 (-110).

None of the last 10 Dallas-Philly matchups finished within 3 points, and I don't expect that to change here. Dallas has a very good defense and a very solid secondary, but it simply does not have the personnel to cover both Smith and Brown. Dallas allowed 392 rushing yards combined in its 2 losses to Arizona and San Francisco, so Philly will likely run the ball very well behind that phenomenal offensive line as well.

Whichever team you choose to cover the spread, also pick that team on the moneyline as trends suggest the winner of 1 often wins the other as well in this matchup.

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 47 (-110).

Both of these teams are very good defensively, but I don't really expect this to be a defensive battle. I see both teams turning the ball over at least once in this matchup, and I would be shocked if either team scored less than 24 points. Seven of the last 10 meetings have hit on the Over, including the last 5.
