vs market (Earl \u2212 line)
Dallas sits at 18th with a -1.915 neutral-field rating, a big jump of 2.222 points from last week, but that number still trails the market by 4.13 points, meaning the public is pricing the Cowboys well above what the underlying metrics support. The last five games show a perfectly balanced 26.4 points scored and allowed with a slightly negative EPA differential of -0.0182, so this is a mediocre team with real absences in Dee Winters and KaVontae Turpin baked into the rating. That 4.13-point gap versus the market makes Dallas a clear sell — lay the points against them rather than backing the brand name.
