NFL Week 4 Odds, Picks & Predictions: Commanders vs. Cowboys
The Cowboys will look for their third win against the Commanders at home. The Commanders have given up the fifth most points this season while the Cowboys have only scored the third-fewest points. The one place Dallas has been solid is in the rushing attack. Tony Pollard and Ezekiel Elliott are averaging over 4.4 yards per carry (5.6 for Pollard, 4.4 for Elliott). The Commanders have allowed 5.4 yards per rush attempt to opposing running backs this season. Dallas' combo in the backfield should have a good day running the ball.
On the other side of the ball, Washington should also be able to run if they choose. However, they will have to improve their pass protection to win against the Cowboys, who lead the league with 13 sacks. Washington allowed nine sacks on Wentz last week, which does not bode well for Sunday.
What is Betting Against the Spread?
Betting "against the spread" refers to the act of choosing the winning team based on a numeric handicap placed on the team that oddsmakers believe is superior, rather than picking the outright winner. For example, if the Rams face the Bengals, and oddsmakers set the spread at Rams -3.5, you would need Los Angeles to win by 4 or more points in order to cash your Rams bet.
What is an Over/Under Bet?
Over/Under is a wager based on how many points you think will be scored in a specific game. Oddsmakers set the total, and bettors decide whether the final score will be higher or lower than that number. If an Over/Under is set at 44.5 points and you bet Over, you will need the combined score of both teams to be 45 points or higher to win your bet.
What is a Moneyline Bet?
A moneyline bet involves choosing which team you believe will win a specific matchup. The moneyline favorite carries a minus designation, like -130. This means that you need to wager $130 to earn a $100 profit. Conversely, the underdog carries a plus designation, like +110. This means that you win $110 in profit on a $100 bet.
