Hurts Leading Eagles Charge
Jalen Hurts is one of the leaders when it comes to 2023 MVP odds. The quarterback is throwing for more than 235 yards per game. In fact, Hurts needs 5 yards to reach 3,000 on the season. He also has thrown 19 touchdown passes. His game on the ground has been just as important, with 430 yards and 12 touchdowns.
AJ Brown has been the top target for the Eagles offense. The receiver has over 1,150 yards on the season, and has caught 7 touchdowns. DeVonta Smith is next for Philadelphia, with six on the season.
Philadelphia Eagles have gone through a gauntlet of a schedule. After this game, the schedule eases up a little, with a trip to Seattle, followed by back to back home games against the Giants and Cardinals, and then a game at the Giants to wrap up the regular season.
Prescott in Charge of Cowboys Offense
There is no doubt who is in charge of the 2023 Dallas Cowboys offense. That is Dak Prescott. The offense that has scored 33 points or more in each of their last five wins has been anchored by a quarterback going underlooked. Prescott has over 3,200 passing yards, along with 26 touchdowns on the season.
His top target, CeeDee Lamb has made the quarterback look good. Lamb has 90 receptions, for 1,182 yards and 7 touchdowns. Jake Ferguson is next in line with five touchdowns, as does Brandin Cooks.
The Cowboys have a tough remaining schedule. Dallas goes on the road for the next two games. They are in Buffalo and then in Miami on New Year’s Eve. The Cowboys then come home to host Detroit, before finishing the season on the road at the Washington Commanders.
Competitive Battle in the Big D
We expect this to be a great football game. We actually expect this to be a really competitive game that could come down to the final possession or so. The 3.5 point spread seems to be a little too high for our liking. We are going to take the road team – Philadelphia to cover this spread. Take the Philadelphia Eagles +3.5 on the road at the Dallas Cowboys in this Week 14 affair on Sunday!
