Watch » Schatz: This is a tough one but with the Cowboys (12th) and Chargers (13th) essentially tied in DVOA, I would have to take the Chargers and the very small amount of points. ESPN FPI has the Cowboys as the better team, but by only a point, which again suggests taking the Chargers at home.
At this point, we've seen five games of the Cowboys' offense being below average, and I don't know how much they can take advantage of a weak Chargers defense. Walder: I like the Chargers +1.5. Even before last week's blowout loss to the 49ers, the Cowboys' offense ranked only 10th in EPA per play despite the team facing the easiest strength of schedule in the league.
