Saints vs. Cowboys Final Score Prediction for NFL Week 2 (Dallas Dominates at Home)
Arguably the two most dominant Week 1 performances came from the New Orleans Saints and Dallas Cowboys, and now those teams meet in Dallas in Week 2.
The Cowboys’ defense put Deshaun Watson and the Cleveland Browns in a tough spot in Week 1, sacking the quarterback six times in a 33-17 rout.
Meanwhile, the Saints hung 47 points on the Carolina Panthers, easily covering as short favorites.
One of the toughest things to do in an NFL game is to predict a final score, but using the latest odds, I’m attempting to do so for this matchup on Sunday.
Let’s break down the odds for this matchup!
Odds via DraftKings Sportsbook.
Spread
Moneyline
Total
Even though the Saints dominated the lowly Carolina Panthers in Week 1, oddsmakers are still setting them at 6.5-point underdogs in Week 2.
Dallas also turned in a strong showing in Week 1, and it covered the spread on the road behind a dominant defensive performance.
Oddsmakers are giving the Cowboys a rightful edge after they went 8-0 straight up and 6-2 against the spread at home in the regular season in 2023.
There was a lot to like from the Saints’ win in Week 1, but can we trust them after they simply beat the Panthers?
I’m not completely sold.
Over the last two seasons, the Cowboys have gone 16-1 straight up at home, including an impressive 11-5 against-the-spread record as home favorites.
Even though Dallas’ offense wasn’t humming against Cleveland, the Browns are also one of the better units in the NFL. On the other side, Carolina may be the worst team in the league (again), so I don’t want to give the Saints too much credit.
As a road underdog last season, New Orleans was a solid 2-1 against the spread, but I really like Dallas to win and cover – even if it’s only by a point or so.
The Cowboys’ offense wasn’t asked to do much in Week 1 because of a dominant defensive performance and a return touchdown, but I think they show us why they were the highest-scoring unit in the NFL in 2023.
Final Score Prediction: Cowboys 27, Saints 20

DALLAS – Dallas police need a name for a dangerous robber who pulled a gun on a 7-Eleven clerk and walked out with the cash register drawer.
He was caught on camera. But it’s been six months, and he’s still at large.
7-Eleven Robberies
What we know:
The robbery in question happened on Jan. 13 around 10:30 p.m. at the store at 302 North Marsalis Avenue.
A Black male who is about 5 feet 8 inches tall and about 170 to 180 pounds walked in and waited until no other customers were inside.
“After it’s empty, he displays a handgun and points it at the cashier,” said Det. Eduardo Lopez Villa. “I don’t know what he said. He just demanded the cash from the cash register.”
Det. Villa said the suspect took the whole cash register drawer before fleeing eastbound on foot on 8th Street.
What you can do:
The detective believes anyone who knows the suspect will be able to recognize him.
“Yes, most definitely based on the video and the screenshot. If you know him, you’ll recognize him,” he said.
Tipsters can call or text Det. Villa at 469-755-8445.
“I need his information so I can talk to him about this incident,” he said.
