Lions vs. Cowboys Free Pick
The Dallas Cowboys have a renewed sense of confidence after beating the Giants last Sunday and will now look to beat a struggling Detroit Lions team this weekend. Continue reading for our free pick on this Week 11 contest.
According to latest NFL Odds, oddsmakers from online sports book BroburySports.com have made the Cowboys 6.5-point favorite over the Lions in Week 11. The over/under total for this game is currently 47 points.
The Lions fell to 2-7 on the year after the Bills beat them last Sunday, but they improved to 7-2 against the spread this season. They’re winless at 0-5 on the road this year, but they’ve covered in three of their first five games.
The Cowboys are also 2-7 but are just 2-7 against the spread this season according to latest NFL trends. They’ve yet to win at Cowboy Stadium and have failed to cover in all four of their home games in 2010.
Our Week 11 Free Pick:
We think it’s a tad premature to jump back on the Cowboys’ bandwagon. This is still a team led by Jon Kitna, who is a serviceable backup at this point in his career but he won’t be able to play at an elite level every week. The ‘Boys crushed the Giants last Sunday but this is a team that has been known for putting together some pretty lackluster efforts and we wouldn’t put it past Dallas to mail it in against an inferior Detroit team. The Lions have been beating the spread all season and we think they’ll pick up another cover this weekend. Detroit is 4-0 in its last four games versus the NFC and 5-1 ATS in its lat six games overall. Our pick is the Lions, who have been in virtually every game in some capacity this season and who will be aided once again by rookies Ndamukong Suh and Jahvid Best.
