Dallas Cowboys vs Minnesota Vikings

A pair of winning teams with playoff seeding at stake so expect both defenses to bring their "A" games. The Dallas defense is 13th in total yards allowed, fourth versus the pass, Top 10 on third down (36.8%), and fifth in points surrendered (18.2 pg). Dallas is 46-28 UNDER the total on the road against pass defenses that allow 235+ yards per game, as well as 62-39 UNDER on the road in games played on turf. Minnesota has won seven in a row with the defense Top 10 on third down (36.79%), plus 14th in points allowed (21.2 ppg). The Vikings are 80-53 UNDER the total after scoring 30+ points in the last contest. Take Dallas/Minnesota UNDER the total.

Dallas played its best game since Dak Prescott went down as the Cowboys led most of the way before losing to undefeated Pittsburgh 24-19 two weeks ago. Garrett Gilbert did an adequate job while finishing 21 of 38 for 243 yards and a touchdown with an interception, and the Cowboys had 144 yards on 31 carries. The Dallas defense definitely had its best showing holding the Steelers to only 46 yards on the ground on 2.6 per carry although Ben Roethlisberger and the Pittsburgh offense came alive in the second half to pull out the win. Minnesota is on a short week after defeating the Bears 19-13 on Monday night. Kirk Cousins finally won a Monday game after losing nine in a row, and he completed 25 of 36 for 292 yards and two touchdowns with one pick. Dallas is 8-3 ATS its last 11 November games, and the Vikings have covered the number just twice its last seven as home favorites. They are also 2-8 ATS their last 10 games after giving up fewer than 15 points their previous game. Grab the points with the Cowboys for a Max Play.

The Dallas Cowboys are no fluke, winning 10 in a row. The only loss was in the opener and that was by a scant by one point. The offense has tremendous talent and balance at #16 in the NFL in passing, second in rushing, and third in points (28.7 points per game). The defense is tied for fifth, allowing just 19.4 ppg and Dallas hasn't lost a road game. The strong defense and ball-control offense chews up yards and the clock, with the team 8-2 UNDER the total on the road, plus 10-3 UNDER after a spread loss. They face a Vikings team with all kinds of problems, losing five of their last six. The offensive line is a mess, last in the NFL in rushing, and the offense has scored 20 or fewer points in five of six. That includes last week in a 16-13 loss at Detroit, making it four of the last six games the team has been limited to 16 points. Their only real threat on offense, wide receiver Stefon Diggs, sat out last week's loss with a knee injury. The Minnesota offense will struggle to score again, and are on a 20-8-1 run UNDER the total, including 14-2 UNDER against a team with a winning record. Take Dallas on the moneyline and also take the UNDER.
