The Philadelphia Eagles may have lost their last time out but it was against the Carolina Panthers, an excellent football team. Most still agree that despite the loss the Eagles are on the rise and tonight they are -3-point favorites over the Dallas Cowboys.

The Eagles started the season 1-3 straight up and despite their most recent loss their defense and offense have been steadily getting better.

Meaniwhile, the Cowoboys are about ready to call it a season. They have lost all five games without injured QB Tony Romo. Over that time, they have also only covered the spread on time, in a 13-12 loss to the Seattle Seahawks.

The Cowboys have now tried both Brandon Weeden and Matt Cassel as starters but neither have proven to be the answer even with Dez Bryant returning last week.

The total for this game is set for 44 points, but most bettors like the safe moneyline bet with the Eagles at -3.
