NFL Football Betting Odds - 2009 Dallas Cowboys
By Andy Thomas
The Dallas Cowboys have not won a playoff game in 13 years. Their quarterback Tony Romo has done everything except prove that he can lead his team to a victory in a big game. Now Terrell Owens is gone. I am not sure what they have done to deserve this other than lose, but somebody apparently thinks they are pretty good.
NFL odds makers are calling the Cowboys a 4/1 favorite to win the NFC Championship and giving them 9/1 odds to win the Super Bowl.
This must be a cruel joke set in motion by the bookies just get Cowboys fans hopes up in 2009. But then again, they do have a new $1.1 billion stadium, so they must be a great team.
Seriously, the Cowboys will win some games in 2009, maybe even have a shot at making the playoffs down the stretch. However, the notion that they are one of the elite teams in the NFC is just crazy.
At what point do you stop calling the Cowboys offense underachievers, and start calling them what they really are, good but not great. I have not seen any of the supposed genius that was coming when Jason Garrett took over the offense.
The strongest part of the 2009 Dallas Cowboys will be their defense. Wade Phillips may have some short comings as a head coach, but he is known as a defensive guru that likes to use an attacking style to get the job done. The Dallas defense was a sack machine last season with DeMarcus Ware coming off the edge and recording 20.0 sacks.
The Cowboys won't be a terrible team in 2009, but 4/1 to win the NFC Championship is a sucker bet.
