Matchups to watch.
- Mismatch through the air. The Dallas Cowboys averaged 267.2 passing yards per game this season, the 6th most in the NFL, and the Philadelphia Eagles allowed 244.5 passing yards per game, the 6th most.
- Weakness against weakness in total yards. The Philadelphia Eagles averaged 255.5 yards per game this season, the 2nd fewest in the NFL, and the Dallas Cowboys allowed 382.5 yards per game, the 3rd most.
- Moneyline: The betting market, with the margin removed, gives Dallas Cowboys a 67.1% chance to beat Philadelphia Eagles. AiQ's moneyline pick is the side the consensus favors. The best price, -215 at FanDuel, is priced below the fair price of -204 (−1.8% value).
- Total: The betting market, with the margin removed, puts the over 43.5 points at 50.8% and the under at 49.2%. That is near a coin flip, and AiQ's read is the market's own, so AiQ has no edge on the total. AiQ's projected total, 44.6 points, comes from the same market prices, so it adds nothing to them.
- Spread: The betting market, with the margin removed, gives Dallas Cowboys -4.5 a 49.1% chance to cover and Philadelphia Eagles +4.5 50.9%. That is near a coin flip, and AiQ's read is the market's own, so AiQ has no edge on the spread.
