San Francisco 49ers vs Dallas Cowboys Prediction

Oddsmakers continue to make the San Francisco 49ers favorites, but they’ve failed to cover 7 of their last 10 Games, and they’re coming off a brutal performance against the Chiefs. Purdy has been underwhelming this season, and now the 49ers offense just lost Aiyuk for the season. Deebo Samuel is dealing with pneumonia as well. The Dallas Cowboys have had issues of their own, but they’ve also had an extra week to prepare, and they’re 2-0 ATS and SU this season as a road underdog. The 49ers have issues, and I’m just not leaving this many points on the table with the rested team. Give me the Cowboys and the points.
