Analysis: While there is a lot of hoopla surrounding this NFC East showdown with both teams in this contest tied atop their division standings with identical 5-2 SU records, I like the Philadelphia Eagles to handle the Cowboys in this contest a bit easier than many people think with Dallas beating the lowly Chiefs and Seahawks during its current three-game winning streak.

While the Cowboys have gone an impressive 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games against NFC opponents. Dallas has also gone an alarming 1-4 ATS in their last five road games and just 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games against their NFC East division rivals.

The Eagles are the right pick in this matchup NFL pro football gamblers as they’ve gone a spotless 4-0 ATS in their last four games against NFC East opponents and an even more impressive 5-0 ATS in their last five games as a home favorite.

Philadelphia has also gone 6-1 ATS in their last seven home games and 4-1 ATS in their last five games overall.

Cementing my pick in this matchup is the fact that the Cowboys have gone a dismal 1-5 ATS in their last six meetings against Philly.

With the Over going a consistent 3-0-1 in the last four meetings in Philadelphia, I sat play the Over in this matchup as well.
