Never think that you have the NFL figured out. You don’t.
The Pittsburgh Steelers, at 7-0, were the NFL’s last undefeated team. The Dallas Cowboys were 2-6, the only team that was winless against the spread all season and on its fourth starting quarterback already this season. This time it was Garrett Gilbert, whose claim to fame is being a star in the defunct AAF. The only question seemed to be how many points the Steelers would cover the spread by.
It wasn’t that easy for the Steelers. The Cowboys, who were +650 on the moneyline at BetMGM, almost pulled off the upset.
