The Philadelphia Eagles (13-1) visit AT&T Stadium to take on the Dallas Cowboys (10-4) Saturday at 4:25 p.m. ET (FOX). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Eagles vs. Cowboys, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.
After jumping out to a 17-point lead in Jacksonville on Sunday, the Cowboys gave it all back and then some losing 40-34 in overtime on a pick-6 thrown by QB Dak Prescott. WR Noah Brown had 2 receiving TDs on 6 receptions and getting him going will help WR CeeDee Lamb be even more effective. The offense of Dallas is good and so is the defense.
Defensive Player of the Year favorite LB Micah Parsons leads the defense that is better against the pass then it is the run. With QB Jalen Hurts out with a shoulder injury and QB Gardner Minchew behind center, the Eagles will attempt to use RBs Miles Sanders and Kenneth Gainwell to slow the game down and keep the clock moving.
If the Eagles win any of the next 3 games, they clinch the NFC’s No. 1 seed. While they do not have to do it this week, the Eagles and their fans would love nothing better than to do so against the Cowboys.

PASS.
The injury to Hurts makes this a Dallas victory. But the -210 price is a bit high to wager straight. If adding to a multi-team parlay though, this could be a nice added piece.
BET EAGLES +4.5 (-113).
This game started at Eagles -1 and moved immediately to Cowboys -7 when the news of Hurts came out. It has now settled in at Dallas -4.5, but it is still a little bit too high.
Minchew may not be Hurts, but he has a solid 17 to 4 TD to INT ratio since the start of 2019 and he is a capable backup.
The Eagles will rely on the run to slow this game down in number of possessions. Scoring will be a premium and the Eagles will get it on the ground. Which is where Dallas is vulnerable on defense. I do think Dallas will win. But 4.5 points is too much to give, so I will take EAGLES +4.5 (-113).
BET UNDER 47.5 (-112).
This will be a run first game for both teams as both secondaries are strong. The Cowboys will lean on RBs Ezekiel Elliott and Tony Pollard while Philadelphia leans on RBs Sanders and Gainwell. Expect the number of rushes to be higher than the number of points scored in this game, so UNDER 47.5 (-112) is my FAVORITE PLAY.
