The last time the New York Giants tangled with division rivals the Dallas Cowboys, they got blasted 40-0 at home.
By the looks of the Week 10 odds, books don’t expect much improvement from New York on Sunday.
Dallas is laying as many as 17 points at home this Sunday, marking the largest NFL odds spread of the 2023 season so far.
The number is warranted, considering the Giants are playing back-to-back road games, coming off a 30-6 defeat in Las Vegas, and starting third-string quarterback Tommy DeVito against a vaunted Cowboys defense.
That pile of chalk may scare away some bettors, but big favorites have made good of those lofty lines so far this season with double-digit faves going 7-3 against the spread.
I break down that big sprea…
The Super Bowl is a unique event for sports bettors and sports fans alike.
Odds on the Super Bowl are the tightest and most finely tuned numbers of the entire sports wagering calendar, as it will be the biggest single betting event for bookmakers in North America — and draw a global audience.
The Super Bowl is not only different in terms of scale but also in terms of scheduling. The matchup for the Big Game is set after the conclusion of the NFC and AFC Championships, and odds are often formulated well before those contests are finalized.
Once the official opening Super Bowl odds are released, sportsbook operators have two weeks to take action and expand their menu of Big Game bets. By the time the kickoff rolls around on Sunday, February 11, ther…
Here we gooooo!
Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys escaped Week 4 with a narrow Thursday night win and are back on prime time as they travel to take on the stout Pittsburgh Steelers defense.
I’ve taken a look through the Dak Prescott odds available, and I believe the best value is to bet on him to throw no interceptions on Sunday, October 6.

Midfielder Paul Arriola says FC Dallas need to start paying their supporters back in Saturday s Texas derby against the Houston Dynamo, having failed to impress in the early stages of the season.
Dallas sit 13th in the Western Conference standings with just five points from eight matches in 2024, their only victory coming against the San Jose Earthquakes in their season opener.
They have only taken two points from seven matches since then, putting head coach Nico Estevez under pressure.
However, Arriola says a clash with their biggest rivals at Toyota Stadium represents a chance to put things right.
Our fans have been great all season, we haven t shown up for them. It is motivation for us to go and beat Houston on Saturday and obtain three points, he sa…
Barcelona won LaLiga by 14 points last season, but that bald statistic does not tell even half the story as Atletico Madrid pushed the Catalan giants incredibly hard.
The title hinged on Atletico s trip to Camp Nou in early March, when a typically brilliant Lionel Messi free-kick earned Barcelona a 1-0 victory that put them in pole position for the league.
Diego Simeone thereafter switched his focus to the Europa League and Antoine Griezmann scored twice in a 3-0 defeat of Marseille in the final to justify that decision in some style.
Atletico who downed Real Madrid 4-2 in the UEFA Super Cup look poised to offer Barca their strongest competition again this term, with their city rivals adapting to a new era without Cristiano Ronaldo and Zinedine Zidane.

Group A is the only one to contain two previous World Cup winners, France (1998) and Uruguay (1930 and 1950).
Mexico s best run in the finals saw them reach the quarter-finals in 1970 and 1986, which means that South Africa face a tough task if they re to escape Group A.
France are favourites on the Group A Index spread (25pts to the winner, 10pts to runner-up and 5pts to third-place), currently at 15-16.5pts. Although the French are ranked seventh in the Fifa World Rankings, buyers of their group win index will be concerned with their current form.
Qualification for South Africa came by an already infamous goal to get past the Irish and sellers of France s group index will also have noted that the side recently failed to score against the Spanish.

Gary O Neil admitted that Wolves may be second favourite in every game, but he is hoping they can flip the script against Aston Villa in the Premier League on Saturday.
Wolves have endured a difficult start to the season with one draw and three losses, including a 2-1 defeat to Newcastle United last weekend after they failed to hold onto their lead.
They sit 18th in the Premier League table and go into the weekend having also been knocked out of the EFL Cup after suffering a 3-2 defeat to Brighton on Wednesday.
O Neil did not shy away from their run of poor form and is hopeful they can start to get results that match their performances.
Of course, should haves and could haves aren t going to help us, but moving forward you can still see that we re giving…
The Bundesliga is back, and the Serie A, La Liga and the Premier League are working on their respective plans to complete the 2019/20 season. Meanwhile, the season has been ended in France, with table toppers Paris Saint-Germain declared as champions.

Liverpool star Mohamed Salah revealed he knew he wanted to join the Premier League giants more than six years ago.
Salah made the switch to Anfield from Roma last year, establishing himself as one of the world s best forwards with 44 goals in his first season.
But the Egypt international said he had eyed a move to Liverpool since 2012, when he left his homeland to sign for Basel.
It was when I went to Basel from Egypt, I had a plan in my mind that I would hopefully one day come to Liverpool, Salah told the club s website.
There was a chance before, but at the time it didn t work for both sides.
When there was interest again last year, I was very interested in coming to Liverpool straight away in my head, but you also have to see what the plan f…
