'Boys look for 7th straight win

WASHINGTON REDSKINS (2-5) at DALLAS COWBOYS (6-1)
Kickoff: Monday, 8:25 p.m. ET
Line & Total: Dallas -9.5, Total: 50

The sizzling-hot Cowboys aim for a seventh straight victory when they host the Redskins on Monday night.

Washington snapped a four-game losing skid last week when third-string QB Colt McCoy replaced Kirk Cousins and led his team to a 19-17 victory over the Titans in the nation's capital. Dallas beat the Giants 31-21 last week for its sixth straight victory (5-1 ATS).

When hosting the Redskins since 1992, the Cowboys are 18-4 SU (12-10 ATS). Last season Dallas won both games SU over Washington, but the teams split wins ATS.

This Cowboys defense has surprised plenty of people this season, as they’re allowing just 19.5 PPG over their past four contests and will be eager to put the pressure on McCoy.

Washington is 25-12 ATS in road games after having lost five or six of its previous seven games since 1992. However, the Redskins are also 4-13 ATS as an underdog over the past two seasons.

Dallas, meanwhile, is 12-3 ATS in the first half of the season over the last two years, but only 7-16 ATS when favored under head coach Jason Garrett.

Both teams will be missing key defensive players in this matchup, as Washington just placed LB Brian Orakpo (pectoral) on IR and lists CB Tracy Porter (hamstring) and LBs Akeem Jordan (knee) and Perry Riley (knee) as questionable. Dallas might not have the services of either LB Bruce Carter (quad) or CB Brandon Carr (hamstring), who are both questionable to play.

The Redskins wisely replaced ineffective QB Kirk Cousins (1,170 pass yards, 10 TD, 9 INT) with Colt McCoy last week and McCoy was able to do exactly what the Redskins needed. He managed the game to perfection, completing 11-of-12 throws for 128 yards (10.9 YPA) and a touchdown, and led his team to a win, which is something Cousins wasn’t able to do in any of his previous four starts.

One thing McCoy won’t have to deal with in Washington is a lack of weapons, as he’ll be throwing the ball to both WRs DeSean Jackson (26 rec, 528 yards, 3 TD) and Pierre Garcon (35 rec, 396 yards, 3 TD). Jackson had just three catches for 49 yards last week, but in the previous two games, he had over 100 yards receiving and a touchdown in each. Garcon has had a touchdown in back-to-back games and is finally getting himself going after a slow start to the year.

One player the Redskins will really need to establish early is RB Alfred Morris (440 rush yards, 3 TD). Morris has really struggled recently, rushing for less than 55 yards in each of the past three games. He has not had 20 carries since Week 3, and Washington would be wise to change that.

The Redskins defense could have a lot of trouble with this potent Dallas offense. They’ve done well in preventing big yardage games from their opponents, but they’re allowing 31.2 PPG over their past five contests.

The Cowboys have won their past six games largely due to the dominant running of RB DeMarco Murray (187 carries, 913 yards and 7 TD, all NFL highs). Murray is the first player in league history to rush for 100+ yards in each of the first seven games of the season. He should be in for yet another big game against this miserable Redskins’ defense.

QB Tony Romo (1,789 rush yards, 14 TD, 6 INT) has been great since his opening week disaster against the 49ers. He’s thrown for 13 touchdowns and just three interceptions since the start of Week 2. As long as he takes care of the football the way he has been, Dallas is going to be a contender in the NFC. He’ll continue looking for his go-to receiver in WR Dez Bryant (45 rec, 590 yards, 4 TD), who has seen 37 targets over the past three weeks. Last Sunday, Bryant had nine catches for 151 yards in the win over the Giants.

Defensively, the Cowboys have been way better than anybody expected. They’re allowing 230.4 passing yards per game (12th in NFL) and 113.4 rushing yards per game (16th in NFL). They’re not dominant in either facet, but they’re solid defending both the pass and the rush, and efficiency of the Dallas offense is the reason this defense ranks second in fewest time of possession (26:27). The Cowboys are allowing just 19.5 PPG over the past four contests.

Total Talk - Week 8
By Chris David

Week 7 Recap

The ‘under’ produced an 8-7 record in Week 7 and those results included three ‘over’ tickets in the primetime games. Including the Denver-San Diego outcome from this past Thursday, we’ve had 25 games played under the lights and the ‘over’ has gone 21-4 (84%) in these contests. I asked the Westgate SuperBook Director Jay Kornegay about this current 'over' run and wanted to know if his Las Vegas based shop would adjust.

He answered, “It’s business as usual. We know the general public will be betting the over on these games. If the sharps bet it over, we might move it a little more aggressively knowing the public will also be on that same side.”

It’s more than likely that things will balance out in the second-half of the season. For those keeping track, the ‘over’ went 28-22 in 50 primetime games last season.

Through seven weeks of the regular season, the ‘over’ has gone 56-50.

Back to London (*Early Game – 9:30 a.m. ET*)

In Week 4 of the regular season the Dolphins dropped the Raiders 38-14 from Wembley Stadium in London. The combined 52 points easily went ‘over’ the closing number of 41.

In that week’s installment of “Total Talk” we mentioned the current total trend in the NFL International Series and we’ll bring it to your attention again.

Including the Miami-Oakland outcome, the ‘over’ has now cashed in four consecutive games played from London.

Washington at Dallas: (See Below)

Under the Lights

Washington at Dallas: This game opened at 51 and that number has dropped to 49 ½ as of Saturday, which doesn’t surprise me. Dallas has the firepower to light up the scoreboard but the same can’t be said for Washington, especially with Colt McCoy at QB. The Cowboys and Redskins have both seen the ‘over’ go 4-3 this season but this series has watched the ‘under’ go 3-0 in their last three encounters. If you’re looking for a possible ‘over’ angle, you could point to Washington’s defense. The unit has allowed a combined 82 points (Eagles - 37, Giants - 45) in their first two matchups against NFC East squads.

Biggest Favorite to Cash

The Broncos (-9) cruised past the Chargers on Thursday night to improve to 5-0 at home. Denver started the season at 0-3 ATS, but the Broncos have cashed in four consecutive games, while hitting the favorites/over combination each time during this stretch.

Biggest Underdog to Cash

Carolina (+6) lost to Seattle at home for the third straight season, but the Panthers covered in a 13-9 loss. The Seahawks scored a late touchdown to take the four-point lead, just like last season on opening day when Seattle topped Carolina, 12-7.

Home Sweet Home

Home teams weren't great from a straight-up perspective, going 7-6, but the hosts posted a solid 9-4 ATS record. Among the home underdogs to cash, the Panthers, Bengals, Steelers, and Falcons. Atlanta (+3.5) was the home squad in London, but it will be a long flight back as the Falcons blew a 21-0 lead in a 22-21 loss to the Lions.

Several road favorites pulled off double-digit wins, as the Dolphins and Texans each dominated on the highway. Miami (-7) overcame a slow start in a 27-13 victory at Jacksonville, as the Dolphins won consecutive games for the first time this season (coincidentally, both on the highway). Houston (-3.5) seemed like the squarest play on the board, but the Texans bounced back from last Monday's loss at Pittsburgh to dominate Tennessee, 30-16.

Going For the Kill

Both New England and Pittsburgh broke the 50-point mark in their home blowouts. The Patriots (-6) had no problems with the scuffling Bears, destroying Chicago, 51-23, while putting up 31 points in the second quarter alone. The Steelers (+4.5) didn't have a Monday night hangover, as Ben Roethlisberger threw for over 500 yards in a 51-34 rout of the Colts, who had never lost as a road favorite with Andrew Luck at quarterback.

Wild in the Desert

The craziest finish of the day took place in Arizona, as the Cardinals and Eagles went back and forth in the second half. Nick Foles hit Jeremy Maclin for a 54-yard touchdown pass to give the Eagles a 17-14 lead in third quarter. After the two teams exchanged field goals, Carson Palmer connected with rookie John Brown on a 75-yard touchdown strike to put the Cardinals in front for good. The Eagles put together one final drive, but Foles couldn't bring home a win as Arizona held off Philadelphia, 24-20 to improve to 6-1.

Somebody Had to Win

One week after blowing a late lead in a one-point loss at Buffalo, the Vikings traveled to Tampa Bay and built a 10-0 lead. The Buccaneers rallied for a 13-10 advantage in the fourth quarter, but rookie Teddy Bridgewater marched Minnesota down the field for the game-tying field goal to force overtime. Tampa Bay won the coin toss in overtime, but on the first play of scrimmage, the Bucs fumbled and Minnesota returned it for a touchdown for the 19-13 walk-off win. The Bucs fell to 1-6 on the season and 0-3 ATS as a favorite.

Hot and Not

New England has won four straight games, while covering three times in this stretch.

Since starting 0-2, the Chiefs are 4-1 in their previous five contests, as Kansas City owns a 5-2 ATS record this season.

Of course the Jets are on this list for not being hot. New York was pummeled by Buffalo at home, losing its seventh straight game, while going 0-4 ATS at Met Life Stadium.

Totals

The 'under' finished 7-6, including a 2-1 mark in the late kickoffs. Three teams scored at least 40 points, while just two clubs scored in single-digits..

Since beginning the season with four consecutive 'overs,' the Browns have hit the 'under' in three straight games.

The Ravens and Bengals seemed destined for an 'under' as Cincinnati led Baltimore at the half, 7-6 on a 44 total. But the two AFC North rivals exploded in the second half for a combined 38 points to easily sail 'over' the total, as Cincinnati pulled off the sweep of Baltimore, 27-24.

The 'over' continues to hit in primetime games, going 19-4 through 23 night contests, including in Denver's victory over San Diego last Thursday night.

MNF - Redskins at Cowboys

The expectations on the Cowboys this season weren’t high as many people didn’t have faith in a defense that ranked near the bottom of the league last year. Following a home blowout loss to San Francisco in the season opener, Dallas is riding a six-game winning streak and looks to keep up its momentum on Monday night against a struggling Washington squad.

The Cowboys (6-1) have leaned on their offense throughout this hot stretch, scoring at least 30 points in four of the six victories, including in a 31-21 home triumph over the Giants last Sunday. Dallas erased an early 14-7 deficit with three unanswered touchdowns, including a pair of touchdown tosses by Tony Romo. The Cowboys managed to cover as 4 ½-point favorites, while improving to 1-0 inside NFC East play.

The Redskins (2-5) scratched and clawed to their second win on the season by needing a late field goal to edge the Titans, 19-17. Washington failed to cash as six-point home favorites, both of its victories have come at FedEx Field against Tennessee and Jacksonville. Kai Forbath kicked four field goals in last week’s victory, including the game-winner from 22 yards out, while Colt McCoy looked sharp by going 11 of 12 with a 70-yard touchdown strike to Pierre Garcon.

McCoy is slated to start on Monday, but that isn’t an iron-clad guarantee, according to head coach Jay Gruden. If and when Robert Griffin III is healthy and ready to play, Gruden will start the ex-Baylor star at quarterback. However, Gruden will turn to another former Big 12 standout in McCoy, who is set to make his first start since back in 2011 as a member of the Browns.

Two years ago, Griffin led the Redskins to a season sweep of the Cowboys, as Washington went on to win the NFC East crown. Last season was a different story, as Dallas returned the favor and won both matchups against Washington, including a 31-16 home victory as 5 ½-point favorites. The Redskins outgained the Cowboys on the ground, 216-48, but found the end zone just once. Romo wasn’t sharp by throwing for 170 yards, but a 21-yard touchdown pass to Terrence Williams gave Dallas a 21-9 lead as the Cowboys never looked back.

In the second meeting at FedEx Field in Week 16, the Cowboys edged the Redskins, 24-23, but Washington covered as three-point home underdogs. Griffin was sidelined in this matchup, as Kirk Cousins guided the Washington offense to a 23-14 fourth quarter advantage. However, Dan Bailey drilled a 25-yard field goal with six minutes left, then Romo found DeMarco Murray for a 10-yard touchdown with a minute remaining to give Dallas the one-point triumph for their fourth win in their past six trips to Washington.

The miracle run of 2012 seems like a memory for Washington, as the Redskins finished that season at 5-1 SU and 6-0 ATS inside the division. Since then, the Redskins have lost eight consecutive games against NFC East opponents, which includes defeats this season against the Eagles and Giants. As a road underdog, Washington has failed to cover seven of its past nine in this role, as the Redskins are 1-2 ATS this season with the lone ATS win at Philadelphia in Week 3 as four-point ‘dogs.

The Cowboys went through a stretch of being a nearly automatic fade as a home favorite, posting a dreadful 3-16 ATS when laying points in Arlington from 2010-12. Dallas has improved recently, even if it hasn’t resulted in major profits. Since 2013, Jason Garrett’s club is 4-4 ATS when laying points at AT&T Stadium, and 7-5 ATS overall at home in this span. Under Garrett, the Cowboys have compiled a 1-6 SU and 2-5 ATS record at home off a home victory, which includes a non-cover in an overtime win over the Texans in Week 5.

Dallas is featured under the Monday night lights for the first time since 2012, but the Cowboys have struggled to cover the number in this spotlight. The Cowboys have failed to cash in seven of their past eight Monday contests since 2006, while putting up a 4-4 SU record in this span. At home against division foes in this stretch, Dallas is 2-3 SU and 0-5 ATS, including an 18-16 squeaker against Washington in 2011 as three-point favorites, as the Cowboys kicked six field goals in the win.

Washington is playing on Monday for the second time this season, as the Redskins lost at home to the Seahawks in Week 5 as seven-point underdogs, 27-17. Since 2008, Washington has stunk it up on Mondays, going 1-8 SU and 2-7 ATS, but the only road contest came at Dallas in the two-point loss back in 2011.

The ‘over’ run in primetime games has been unreal this season, going 19-4 through 23 night contests. Both teams are 4-3 to the ‘over’ this season with no significant home/road splits. Both meetings last season finished ‘under’ the total, but those games closed at 52 and 51 points. The Redskins and Cowboys each have played one game this season with a total above 50, as both teams went ‘over’ in those contests.

Dallas is listed as a 9 ½-point favorite at most spots with several 10’s out there. With the success of the Cowboys this season, expect the number to close in double-digits with public money coming in on Dallas. The total is set at 49 ½ as the game kicks off at 8:30 PM EST and can be seen on ESPN.

Redskins or Cowboys? NFL bloggers debate who will cover Monday night

The Week 8 Monday nighter pits a pair of NFC East rivals head-to-head as the Dallas Cowboys host the Washington Redskins.

Perhaps one of the great surprises of the NFL season thus far is the fact that the Cowboys are 6-1 straight up and 5-2 against the spread through the first seven games of the season.

Washington, on the other hand, has won just one of its previous five games and has failed to cover the spread in four straight heading into the Week 8 finale.

The majority of books opened the 'Boys as 9.5-point home faves with that line still being offered, or -10 being out there as well.

In order to get a grasp on this primetime matchup, we’ve enlisted the help of those who know these teams the best. Expert NFL bloggers Scott Jennings of Redskins blog Hogs Haven and K.D. Drummond of Dallas blog Blogging the Boys strap on the pads to debate not just who wins, but which team will cover the spread when the Washington Redskins visit the Dallas Cowboys Monday night.

WHY WASHINGTON WILL COVER

Scott Jennings writes for Hogs Haven. You can follow them on Facebook and Twitter @HogsHaven.

Jordan Reed is back

Reed has missed a lot of time with a bad hamstring injury since Week 1, but he returned to the lineup two weeks ago and had a very good game. Last week, Colt McCoy connected with Reed three times for 25 yards during the game winning drive. The playbook opens up with Reed in the game and Jay Gruden loves moving him around the line. He will line up wide and in the slot, finding the best matchups and taking advantage of a Cowboys defense that has struggled against Tight Ends this season.

Ryan Kerrigan vs. Jermey Parnell

Ryan Kerrigan has been having the best season of his career, with 6.5 sacks already. Jermey Parnell struggled early last week in place of Doug Free, and he is the weak link on an otherwise stout Cowboys offensive line. They will provide help for Parnell, and the loss of Orakpo on the other side hurts the Redskins pass rush, but Kerrigan will get home against Tony Romo.

Tyler Polumbus has been benched

The weakest link on the Redskins offensive line will be on the bench or inactive this week. Polumbus has been terrible this season, giving up eight or nine sacks already depending on which stats service you check. He's got a slight knee issue, but that is not the reason his play has regressed this year. Swing tackle Tom Compton will get the start and the OL should be slightly less porous.


WHY DALLAS WILL COVER

K.D. Drummond writes for Blogging The Boys and SB Nation Dallas. He can be followed on Twitter @KDP10For10 and @BloggingTheBoys.

Follow The Trend

Dallas' surprise start to the season has also been extremely helpful to those willing to wager on a team expected to be in the dumps this season. Dallas is 6-1 straight up, but also 5-2 against the spread in 2014, with the lone "win but a loss" being the overtime game against Houston. On the opposite side, Washington matches their dismal 2-5 record with a similar mark against the number. While there is normally some trepidation as a spread creeps towards double-digits, bettors should remain faithful that this matchup is as lopsided as it seems; even for a Monday night game.

Too Many Weapons

The Cowboys offense is rolling at an elite level right now. They arguably have the league's best offensive line, the league's best running back, the league's most physical wideout and one of the five best at his position, and a quarterback making very few mistakes that can't offset his many spectacular plays. Now, they are integrating their secondary weapons and functioning at a level only seen by the Green Bays and Denvers of the world. Washington is missing Brian Orakpo which means that DeMarco Murray should have a tunnel in front of him to an eighth straight 100-yard game, and when that happens the rest of the offense opens up.

Statistically Speaking

There are two advanced metrics that I love to trot out: Passer Rating differential and Adjusted Net Yards per Attempt. Next to Scoring Differential, these two stats are the most closely correlated to winning over the years. Dallas' advantage in these two categories is absurd. The Cowboys are fourth in the league in PRD, while Washington is a lowly 25th. In ANY/A, Dallas is ninth to Washington's 20th. Simply put, teams that win at the quarterback position usually win the game outright. Washington is on their third quarterback and it would be foolish to wager he'll be able to keep pace with the what Tony Romo has been outputting over the course of the 2014 season.

Monday Night Football: Redskins at Cowboys

Washington Redskins at Dallas Cowboys (-10, 48.5)

A season-opening loss to San Francisco seems like a lifetime ago for the Dallas Cowboys, who will go for their seventh consecutive victory when they host the Washington Redskins on Monday night. The Cowboys have surged to the top of the NFC East behind an offense featuring DeMarco Murray, the first running back in league history to open a season with seven straight 100-yard games. Dallas has won seven of the last 10 versus Washington, including a season sweep a year ago.

The Redskins snapped a four-game skid last week when coach Jay Gruden benched quarterback Kirk Cousins in favor of third-stringer Colt McCoy, who is expected to make his first start since December 2011. However, Gruden employed some gamesmanship by refusing to rule out Robert Griffin III, who has been sidelined since suffering a dislocated ankle in Week 2. "Colt's the starter. We're preparing for Colt to be the starter," Gruden said. "But we're trying to get Robert some reps, get him ready."

TV: 8:30 p.m. ET, ESPN.

LINE HISTORY: Pinnacle Sports opened the Cowboys -8.5 and adjusted to -10. The total opened 49.5 and has dropped to 48.5.

INJURY REPORT: Redskins - S Ryan Clark (Questionable, ankle), CB Tracy Porter (Questionable, hamstring), LB Perry Riley (Questionable, knee). Cowboys - CB Brandon Carr (Probable, hamstring), LB Bruce Carter (Questionable, quad), DE Tyrone Crawford (Out, calf).

POWER RANKINGS: Redskins (+3.75) + Cowboys (-2.25) + home field (-3.0) = Cowboys -9.0

WHAT CAPPERS SAY: "Washington travels to Dallas after snapping a four-game skid and are double-digit divisional underdogs for the first time since 2009. They are 2-7 ATS in their last nine road games. Despite having the best record in football and riding a six-game winning streak, the Cowboys are getting no respect. Double-digit favorites on Monday after being double-digit dogs two games ago." Matt Fargo.

ABOUT THE REDSKINS (2-5 SU, 2-5 ATS, 4-3 O/U): With Washington in dire need of a victory last week, Gruden made a surprise move by inserting McCoy, who wound up completing 11-of-12 for 128 yards and a touchdown in his first action since attempting one pass last season as a member of the 49ers. While McCoy is keeping the seat warm until Griffin returns, a major concern is the running game. Alfred Morris, who rushed for nearly 2,900 yards in his first two seasons, has managed only 124 over the past three games while averaging a meager 2.8 yards per carry. Washington's defense, which ranks sixth with 321.9 yards allowed but has surrendered an average of 26.1 points, absorbed a big loss when linebacker Brian Orapko (torn pectoral) was lost for the season.

ABOUT THE COWBOYS (6-1 SU, 5-2 ATS, 4-3 O/U): Murray rumbled for 128 yards and a touchdown in last week's 31-21 victory over the New York Giants to push his league-leading total to 913 while breaking Hall of Famer Jim Brown's record of six straight 100-yard outings to open a season. “I think we did this as a group, so it’s hard for me to accept this individually,” Murray said. “The offensive line is a huge part of this. ... I definitely give a lot of credit to those guys." Quarterback Tony Romo has multiple TDs in five straight games after throwing for 279 yards and three scores last week, with Dez Bryant hauling in nine balls for 151 yards. Dallas ranked last in total defense last season with an average of 415.3 yards but has cut that number to 343.9 through seven games.

TRENDS:

* Redskins are 6-1 ATS in their last seven meetings in Dallas.
* Under is 8-3 in the last 11 meetings.
* Redskins are 0-4 ATS in their last four games overall.
* Over is 4-0 in Cowboys last four vs. NFC.

CONSENSUS: 52 percent of wagers are backing the Dallas Cowboys.

(51) MINNESOTA WILD VS (52) NEW YORK RANGERS

Take: over

Reason: Your Bonus Play for Monday, October 27, 2014 is in the NHL contest between the Minnesota Wild and NY Rangers. Minnesota brings a 4-2 record into tonight's contest. The Wild have scored 19 goals in six games and are a perfect 3-0 at home. However, the club isn't quite as good on the road, posting a 1-2 mark. The Rangers are 4-4 with eight points, but have not been very good defensively, allowing 26 goals in eight games (3.25 gaa). The Wild have the league's top ranked defense. The problem has been the offense. Minnesota has scored three goals or fewer in the last four games. They did break out though on Saturday, scoring seven goals against the Lightning. The issue here to start the week is that the Wild have to play back-to-back, tonight against the Rangers and Tuesday against Boston. That means the league's top goaltender in Darcy Keumper may not start both games with Niklas Backstrom getting only his second start of the season. And that start could come tonight against a weaker Rangers club. Another issue is that Wild defensemen Christian Folin and Keith Ballard are both battling the flu. If we get Backstrom in goal here tonight coupled with the flu bug hitting the Wild defense, this one could get OVER easily. The Wild are a great defensive club, but back-to-back is tough on any team. I'm taking OVER 5 here on Monday.
