The Dallas Cowboys had a very bipolar and streaky 2019 season. The worst part of that was their record in games they were favored in, which was 14 times by the betting spread. A mere 7-7 record in such games brought their season to a mediocre 8-8 mark.
That is left in the past though and Cowboys fans are hoping that part of that was the lack of motivation inspired by former coach Jason Garrett. New coach Mike McCarthy must avoid losing so many games that America’s Team is favored in if he wants to keep the fan base from calling for his head early in his tenure.
