SourceBaltimore’s interior defense faces a challenge

SourceRavens’ left side remains unsettled
Baltimore’s left side of the offensive line remains unsettled, which could affect quarterback protection and run-game efficiency.
SourceDallas is short-handed in the back seven
Dallas’ back seven could face communication and coverage problems against Baltimore’s motion, tight-end formations and quarterback-designed runs.
SourceInternational setting adds a preparation variable
The Maracanã matchup creates an unusual travel and preparation challenge for both teams; handling the logistics could provide an early hidden advantage.
SourceMarket makes Baltimore a modest favorite
Baltimore is roughly a three-point favorite, with the total generally between 51.5 and 52.5 points.
SourcePick Ideas
Cowboys plus the points
Dallas +3 is the preferred spread position if available because of home-field and Baltimore’s offensive-line questions, even though Baltimore is stronger on the moneyline.
Over 51.5 if the number holds
Over 51.5 is playable at 51.5 or lower because both teams can produce explosive plays; avoid chasing it above 52.5.
Baltimore moneyline rather than a larger spread
Baltimore’s moneyline is safer than an inflated spread and is most appealing around -150 or better.
Dallas first-half spread
Dallas +1.5 or better in the first half is a lower-variance alternative to the full-game spread, with the Cowboys benefiting from the home-designated slot.
