00:00and the Cowboys yards per play allowed on defense so that's every play every time the other team
00:21gets under center they average about 6.4 yards per play right about 6.4
00:29that's one of the metrics Vegas uses to come up with their betting lines so they take your yards per play
00:35allowed defensively and match it up with the average in the NFL well the average of the NFL
00:42is 5.2 yards per play so you're 1.2 yards per play different each 10th is worth 0.2 points
00:52all right so where's Kevin Hagelin right so the Cowboys just by walking on the field
01:00defensively are six point underdogs to the other team just by walking on the field
01:06now you offset that with the offensive numbers and they are they're better they're gaining 5.9
01:13yards per play to 5.3 for the league average so you're getting back three points so it's just by
01:17walking on the field your defense is so bad right now that even your offense can't make up for so
01:24on a league average you're three point underdogs to every team league average wow automatically
01:30automatically just on the just at the bare minimum so the Cowboys right now are favored by two and a
01:35half over the Jets mm-hmm and that's it's in New York right yeah it's in New York so that would
01:40if their defense was average it'd be a six point spread because you're you're getting back three
01:47points from the offense
