Cowboys vs. 49ers NFL Divisional Playoffs Betting Preview & Odds (01/22/2023)

The San Francisco 49ers are the dream team for old school football fans. The 49ers use the NFL odds playbook of the past. A strong running game, rock-ribbed defense, and mistake-free quarterbacking have gamblers reminiscing about the old days of Bill Walsh, Ronnie Lott, and Joe Montana. The 49ers also bring one of the best storylines in the 2022 NFL Playoffs. 3rd-string QB Brock Purdy was the last player taken in the 2022 NFL Draft. That distinguished him as “Mr. Irrelevant.” Now comes the toughest test yet against the resurgent and revenge-minded Dallas Cowboys.

Cowboys at 49ers SBG Odds Overview

Namely, Brock Purdy has stunned the online betting football world by playing with the poise of a ten-year veteran. In fact, he may have won the full time gig in the future. And that has affected the betting line.

Dallas Cowboys Team Overview

Last Monday night, the Dallas Cowboys won 31-14 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as 2.5-point road dogs. The game went under the total of 45.5. Dallas had a regular season record of 12-5 straight up, 9-7-1 against the spread, and 8-8 over/under the total.

Dallas has NFL metrics of 11th for total offense, 14th for passing, 9th for rushing, and 4th for scoring. While defensively, they are 12th overall, 8th against the pass, 22nd against the rush, and 5th for points allowed. Dallas ranks 19th for fewest turnovers lost and 1st for takeaways.

The Dallas Cowboys will ride high into San Francisco after their mauling of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Of course, last year, the 49ers beat the Cowboys in the wild card playoff round. That game nearly cost Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy his job. Now the Cowboys seek revenge and a shot at the NFC championship game.

Dak Prescott was outstanding for Dallas in the win. Prescott was 25 of 33 for 305 yards. The Cowboys and head coach Mike McCarthy were written off for dead before the wild card game at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. But Dallas dominated and schooled Tom Brady and the Bucs in every way. On Sunday, the Cowboys seek revenge for their 2021 NFC wild card loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Certainly, Dallas enters the game in top form.

San Francisco 49ers Team Overview

Last game, the San Francisco 49ers won 41-23 against the Seattle Seahawks as 10-point home favorites. The game went over the NFL bets total of 42. San Francisco has a record of 13-4 straight up, 11-6 against the spread, and 9-8 over/under the total.

San Francisco ranks 5th for total offense, 13th for passing, 8th for rushing, and 6th for scoring. Defensively they rank 1st overall, 20th against the pass, 2nd against the rush, and 1st for points allowed. Also, San Francisco ranks 3rd for fewest turnovers lost and 2nd for takeaways.

When it comes to the NFL Draft, the last player taken is often called “Mr. Irrelevant.” Hence, in 2022 that status and label fell upon Brock Purdy of the San Francisco 49ers. Purdy began his career buried on the depth chart in the #3 position. But injuries to Trey Lance and Jimmy Garoppolo thrust Purdy into the starting pit. San Francisco was written off for dead. Instead, they are undefeated and a top-tier pick to win the NFC title.
