Odds to Win the NFC East Division 2016 – Dallas Cowboys
The Dallas Cowboys odds of winning the NFC East division in 2016 were made a little longer (+225) following Tony Romo’s preseason injury. The New York Giants were now slight favorites at +145 odds.
Mark Sanchez was signed to the Cowboys but will play backup to Rookie Dak Prescott while Romo is expected to be out for the first 6 to 10 weeks.
“Mark’s been a good player in this league,” Cowboys coach Jason Garrett said. “He’s been a starting quarterback. He’s been to the playoffs as a starting quarterback. He’s started a lot of games. He was a very successful college quarterback. We played against him in our division, so we’ve seen him up close.
“He’s an experienced guy who has a lot of ability. He can move around. He can throw the football. He’s had success in the league. We thought it was a good opportunity to add to the depth of our quarterback position. When he was available, certainly it was a good opportunity for us to bring him here.”
Entering this season, pundits warned that a loss to Romo would likely mean a loss of more than half their regular season games. The books, however, have them favored to win UNDER 8.5 regular season games.
