Dallas Cowboys vs. Jacksonville Jaguars
Sunday's NFL Free Pick ----Dallas Cowboys -7---
I'm expecting Tony Romo to play, but I like Dallas to win here by at least a touchdown even if he's sidelined. There's no denying that Brandon Weeden didn't play well against Arizona last week, but a lot of that had to do with how good Arizona was against the run. Jacksonville isn't going to be able to slow down DeMarco Murray and that's going to open up big plays in the passing game for Romo or Weeden. Coming off 2 straight losses, I'm expecting a full out effort. Jacksonville simply doesn't have the offensive fire-power to keep this game close and you can all but count on the Jaguars turning it over a couple times. I also don't trust the Jaguars to be mentally invested in this game. At 1-8 there's nothing here for Jacksonville to play for and I could see them treating the trip to London more as a vacation than a business trip. Dallas is the far superior team and it's going to show on the field Sunday. BET THE COWBOYS -7!
