49ers vs. Cowboys: Sunday Night Football Battle in Week 5
Transcript
00:00 Sunday night football is the marquee matchup of the weekend.
00:04 In Santa Clara, an old NFC rivalry between two of the best teams this year
00:08 all around the league, the San Francisco 49ers hosting the Dallas Cowboys.
00:13 The 49ers, a three and a half point favorite, the over under 45.
00:18 The RS, the Niners, a perfect 4-0.
00:21 One of the remaining two undefeated teams around the NFL alongside
00:25 the Philadelphia Eagles.
00:26 The Dallas Cowboys are three and one, where outside of an unlikely upset
00:32 against the Arizona Cardinals week number three, the Cowboys, DRS,
00:36 actually have a better scoring margin than that of the San Francisco 49ers.
00:40 20.8 is that margin for Dallas, second best in the NFL.
00:45 San Francisco nearly 17 points per game on average for that scoring margin.
00:49 Third best in the National Football League.
00:52 These two teams face off on Sunday in Santa Clara.
00:55 DRS, what do you expect the result to be?
00:58 >> I love this.
00:58 Let's start here with the odds makers and the betting public here, right?
01:01 If you ever watch an old Western movie, right?
01:03 The two gunslingers go out to the street, the music plays, the tumbleweed blows.
01:07 You say, well, why would you be talking about this year?
01:09 Because there is a stare down going on right now.
01:12 45, the opening number.
01:13 All week long and maybe the biggest and heavily backed game.
01:16 Once we come to Sunday Night Football, it hasn't moved a bit at 45.
01:20 You take a look at the actual side here.
01:22 Minus three and a half is an opening number.
01:23 Where does it sit at today?
01:25 Minus three and a half.
01:26 When you talk to odds makers here, you want a lot of action on games.
01:29 But apparently, everybody's waiting on that stare down.
01:32 Because if it goes to three, you jump on the niners.
01:35 I guess that's what we're doing.
01:36 The money coming in right now, probably not going on the niners just yet.
01:39 Because why?
01:39 You're waiting for a three.
01:41 And the total for myself, by the way, similar to what I looked at last night,
01:44 we talked about the 44 and a half.
01:45 It looks like it over to me.
01:47 But then again, we're not seeing any movement there, Ben.
01:49 Going to 45 and a half, 46, 47, anything there.
01:52 And also, this is one of those games-- and it's not a cop out sometimes.
01:55 I'm really excited to watch this game.
01:57 But if you tell me right now, Ben, and you tell me
01:59 that the 49ers are going to win this game by a touchdown,
02:02 I go, you know what?
02:02 It makes sense.
02:03 If you tell me that Dallas is going to go in there and pull the slight upset,
02:06 that makes sense.
02:07 If you tell me both of these defenses are going to be locked in and this game
02:11 ends up 21 to 17 as an under, I would believe you.
02:14 But if you also told me the niners win this game 30 to 27 and it goes over,
02:18 I would believe you as well.
02:20 That's what I love about this game.
02:21 I'm having a hard time trying to find out which is the best angle to take.
02:25 And just by looking at the numbers, maybe a lot of people
02:28 are in the same boat as me.
