The Dallas Cowboys will take on the Seattle Seahawks in a preseason clash this Saturday night. Now, Seattle is a seven-point favorite in the matchup, a notable spread for a preseason game. While preseason games are generally unpredictable, this one seems to be drawing a lot of attention due to the large spread.
In a preseason match, a seven-point spread is a lot, especially when the outcome is essentially a coin flip heading into the second half when you’re unlikely to see starters suiting up anymore.
However, it’s essential to consider that the Seahawks have a history of caring about preseason games and running up the score against other teams. This has been a trend we’ve followed closely.
On the other hand, the Cowboys lost their preseason opener to the Jacksonville Jaguars as a 3.5-point home underdog. They ultimately lost by five points.
One intriguing storyline for this game is the potential appearance of Drew Lock for the Seahawks. Lock looks to be a solid backup for starting quarterback Geno Smith, and it’ll be interesting to see how he does in this matchup.
While the seven-point spread for the Seahawks may raise some eyebrows, the history of these two teams in the preseason makes this a fascinating matchup. Both teams have something to prove, and with players like Drew Lock looking to make an impact, this game will surely be a must-watch affair.
