The NFL will have a rare Saturday game this week and it’s a good one. After Indy stayed undefeated on Thursday night, the focus now shifts to the Saints on Saturday.
The Dallas Cowboys are in the Bayou to play New Orleans. Online sportsbook SPORTSBETTING.com currently has the visitor as 8-point underdogs with an Over/Under of 54.
The Cowboys were in good shape not too long ago, on a 6-2 run (straight up) through October and November but have begun what seems to be their annual December swoon.
In their last 12 games in the last month of the year, Dallas is an atrocious 1-11 against the spread.
As you would expect, they have not fared well on the road in December, stumbling to a 2-9 mark in their last 11 and are currently on an 0-6 ATS skid in their last six.
Tony Romo and company haven’t fared much better against the Saints, with a record of 1-6 ATS in their last seven overall vs. New Orleans.
At the Superdome, Dallas is 1-5 ATS last six.
Total bettors take note, the last five matchups between these two in New Orleans have produced five straight Unders.
The Saints have been flying high throughout the season, obviously, as they own a polished 13-0 mark.
SPORTSBETTING.com currently has a cool prop bet on: New Orleans is listed at +150 to finish the regular season with a 16-0 record.
In their last 20 when favored by 8-points or less, the Saints are marching, with a record of 15-5 ATS and in their last 10 games against opponents from the NFC East, New Orleans has produced eight straight Overs.
The Saints’ last 10 home games, have cashed the Over seven times.
The sports betting public have been jumping on the home team, with 80% of all the action so far coming in on New Orleans.
This should be an entertaining game, as the Saints try and keep pace with the Colts in the run to go undefeated.
- Week 15 will conclude when the New York Giants travel to the nation’s capital to play the Washington Redskins — the G-Men are favored by a field goal with a Total of 44.
There seems to be just as much disarray amongst the Redskins’ front office as there is on the field.
The team has a regular season record of 4-9 while a new GM was hired on Thursday in the form of Bruce Allen, son of late, great Redskins coach George Allen.
The ‘Skins have gone 3-6 SU and ATS the last nine times they’ve hosted the Giants and the last eight times the G-Men have visited, the Over has cashed six times.
The New York Giants have shot themselves in the foot when it comes to their playoff hopes, going 2-6 SU in their last eight.
Still, the NYG are in hot pursuit of a Wild Card berth and are 7-2 SU and ATS in their last nine when favored by 4-points or less.
Online sportsbooks are reporting the action favoring the Giants, with 75% of the money coming in on the visitor so far.
Enjoy your betting weekend.
