6-2 Dallas Cowboys @ 3-6 Green Bay Packers:
Time: 4:25 PM
TV: Fox
Betting Line: Dallas Cowboys are favored by 4.5
This is a battle of former Packers head coach Mike McCarthy leading his new team into Green Bay. The Cowboys have been playing well even though Dak Prescott missed games due to an injury. The Cowboys offense is ranked 27th in total yards per game but they are winning with their defense. Dallas is 3rd, only giving up 16.6 points per game. Micah Parsons could win defensive player of the year.
You look around the NFC and good teams like Philadelphia and Minnesota added pieces at the trading deadline. There are rumors now that the Cowboys are pursuing Odell Beckham Jr. The Packers did nothing to improve this struggling offense. With Aaron Rodgers, this team is only scoring 17 points per contest. That is ranked 27th in the NFL. The Packers locker room and young wide receivers are not happy with Aaron always talking down to them. This team may be the worst in the NFC North.
Prediction:
Dallas defense wins this game. 24-16
3-5 Cleveland Browns @ 6-3 Miami Dolphins:
The Dolphins are 6-0 When Tua Tagovailoa starts and finishes the game this year. Tua is completing 69% of his passes and has 15 touchdowns and only 3 interceptions. Tyreek Hill is on pace to break the receiving record. He has 76 catches 1104 yards and only 4 drops on the year. Jaylen Waddle has 47 catches 812 yards and 6 touchdowns. This offense has turned into running back by committee. They have to do a better job running the ball, they are only averaging 86.9 rushing yards per game.
Nick Chubb could be the best running back in the NFL. He has 10 rushing touchdowns and is averaging 5.6 yards per game. The Browns defense must improve for them to win this game and contend for their division. They are giving up 24 points per game and 347 total yards per contest. Cleveland must put pressure on Tua for them to win.
Prediction:
Take the Dolphins 34-26
