00:00Monday night football. Ooh, the NFL gave us a gem tonight, didn't they? Well, sometimes

00:05value's in the eye of the beholder, and sometimes you can just give us a game that we expect high

00:08scoring. We can all have fun, bet some money, and make some money on prop bet sides and or totals.

00:14The Dallas Cowboys tonight are going to travel to Las Vegas, coming off of their bye week here

00:17to take on the Raiders. This line, Joe, opened up at three. Now, it was three with a little bit of

00:22juice. Some outlets still showing threes with juice. Most of them light juice on the minus

00:28three and a halves here for the Dallas Cowboys, a total listed at 50 and a half. So let's start

00:33with the side itself. I do think the Dallas Cowboys are the better football team, but it is the NFL,

00:37and it's still, yes, hard to win on the road. The Dallas Cowboys probably playing more of a home

00:41game with how their fans travel versus who's actually going to be buying those tickets in

00:45Las Vegas. So I think that amounts to something. But the one thing we do know is here, both of these

00:50defenses, Joe, are really bad, and that's going to be at the center of the game focus tonight.

00:55And that, to me, is the difference here, Donnie, because I disagree with the market

01:00thinking Dallas is the worst offense in the league. You do know, right, that Dallas now has

01:07Quinn and Williams in the center of that defense, right? You do know that they also, for the first

01:13time, will have their stud linebacker, DeMarvian Overshone, available tonight, as well as their

01:20rookie quarterback, Siobhan Revell, making their season debuts. Now you put Kenneth Clark there in

01:26the middle, Quinn and Williams, and this is no longer the worst defense in the NFL. It's going

01:33to be able to stop the run. It's going to be much more athletic. And who exactly are the Raiders

01:38throwing the ball to a running? What, Aston Gentry is all of a sudden going to run the football with

01:44Quinn and Williams in the middle? Absolutely not. They've had a couple of weeks to get these guys

01:49healthy. This will be the most healthy this defense has been in a long time for the Cowboys.

01:55And something tells me this offense won't have any problems actually scoring in this spot here.

02:01Can't trust the Raiders here. And I am looking very forward to seeing now that they have all

02:07these guys on that defensive side of the ball, let's see exactly what the Raiders and Geno Smith

02:13can do against them, because I don't think it's going to be a whole heck of a lot.
