Many might think the season starts tonight. The San Francisco 49ers (-3.5)
host the Dallas Cowboys (+3.5) on primetime in what could be one of the best games of the year. The teams were bitter, hated rivals through the 80s and 90s which cooled off for some time. Things started back up two years ago when the 49ers went into Dallas and knocked them out of the playoffs. One year ago, Dallas came to the 49ers’ own home turf and got bounced yet again.
It’s just how 49ers fans have wanted it because while the rivalry has cooled the hatred for the Dallas Cowboys never ceases.
