Will Dallas make short work of Seattle?
The Cowboys at home is the guarantee for points this season. Will they manage another fireworks display in our Cowboys vs Seahawks betting tip? We definitely wouldn’t be surprised.
So far, they haven’t allowed any opponent a lead of less than 20 points, with some very poor teams such as the Patriots, Giants or Commanders being among them. But even these defenses have to be played into the ground first
The Seahawks are likely to be one of the Boys’ stronger home opponents this season, which makes a complete blowout win less likely. However, Dallas winning the game can be considered very likely.
Our prediction for Dallas vs. Seattle is another home win for the men around quarterback Dak Prescott, albeit not quite as big as their previous home victories. But it could still end up in double figures
Kickoff for this NFC battle is at 02:15 on Friday night in Dallas. The game can be watched live on DAZN.
Dallas Cowboys – Statistics & current form
20, 35, 23, 32, 35 – that’s Dallas’ five winning margin in their home games this season. We don’t need to beat around the bush: The Boys are also considered the clear favorites against the Seahawks.
A 29.0 point difference is the average with which they always shoot their opponents out of the AT&T Stadium. That’s enough to make you fear for the Seahawks. They’ve already suffered three real beatings this season
Dak Prescott in top form
Quarterback Dak Prescott in particular has played his way into the limelight in recent weeks and one or two experts even see him in the MVP discussion. That is not to be dismissed with his statistics.
This season he has a completion rate of 70.0% and 23 touchdowns with only six interceptions. In comparison, MVP frontrunner Hurts only has a 67.6% completion rate and a TD/INT ratio of 18:10.
Cowboys can only beat themselves
Everything points to a home win against Seattle, especially since the Seahawks have been in declining form of late. They have even got to grips with their red zone weakness in the meantime.
While they were still among the weakest three teams here at the start of the season, they are currently in the safe midfield with 54.35%. With these odds, they should have no problems against Seattle, which makes the odds on Dallas in Cowboys vs Seahawks interesting in every respect.
Key Players:
- QB: Dak Prescott
- RB: Tony Pollard
- WR: CeeDee Lamb
- TE: Jake Ferguson
- K: Brandon Aubrey
Seattle Seahawks – stats & current form
The Seahawks have lost three of their last four games with a point differential of 61:111. These are worrying numbers, because the next opponents won’t be any easier. Cowboys, 49ers, Eagles are the names. Have fun Seattle!
Things could even get tight again in the postseason. But what is the reason for the slump in recent weeks? The offense has stumbled enormously in the three losses, which is partly due to Geno Smith
Problems getting first downs
They got six first downs against the Ravens, 16 against the Rams and 14 against the 49ers. Those are not stats that win you games. By comparison, the Cowboys have averaged over 25 first downs in their last three games.
If the Seahawks don’t manage at least 20 first downs against Dallas, then we’re in the dark. However, Geno Smith has only scored a total of three passing touchdowns in the last four Seahawks games – that shouldn’t be enough either
Little speaks for Seattle
If the Hawks at least had a defense like San Francisco or Cleveland, we’d still have some hope. But here, too, they stumbled recently. With 348.5 yards allowed per game, they now even have one of the ten weakest defenses.
All not good conditions for Thursday night. That’s why a bet on the Cowboys for Dallas vs. Seattle is even possible with a handicap of up to -10, as are bets on Dallas + over points.
Key Players:
- QB: Geno Smith
- RB: Kenneth Walker III
- WR: DK Metcalf
- TE: Noah Fant
- K: Jason Myers
Dallas Cowboys – Seattle Seahawks head-to-head comparison / H2H record
The Seahawks have been something of a scary opponent for Dallas in recent years. Four of the last five duels went to Seattle – including the last one in 2020. However, the form curves of both teams are currently diverging sharply, which makes these old results somewhat obsolete.
The form of the two quarterbacks could not be more different, as the passer rating shows. Here Prescott averages 107.4 points, Smith only 88.2 – a huge difference.
This means that the odds on a home win in Boys vs. Seahawks are playable in several constellations. A bet on Cowboys + Over 41.5 total points seems to us to be the best value, as these are usually exceeded in Cowboys games (last five times in a row).
Dallas Cowboys – Seattle Seahawks Tip
In recent weeks, the only question in Cowboys games has always been the size of the win. This could be interesting again on Thursday, as the handicap is increasing daily. It currently stands at around 8.5 – 9.5 points.
This makes handicap betting a little less bearable, which is why a bet on Dallas + Over 41.5 total points is the bet of our choice for Cowboys vs Seahawks. The total points could even be increased by 2-3 points here to increase the value.
Of course, there are always alternatives for player bets on Cowboys games. For Thursday, we recommend a TD bet on Tony Pollard, as Seattle’s run defense is one of the weaker ones in the league.
