Certainly, there is no doubt that two of the biggest brands for betting on NFL games are the Dallas Cowboys and San Francisco 49ers. Of course, Dallas is all about image and marketing. Since owner Jerry Jones and head coach Jimmy Johnson divorced 30 years ago after winning two Super Bowls, the Cowboys have never returned to Super Sunday. Meanwhile, Since 2019, the 49ers have lost two close calls to the Kansas City Chiefs on Super Sunday. Indeed, gamblers see substance in the Niners. However, San Francisco is struggling this year without featured running back Christian McCaffrey.
The Cowboys and 49ers Week 8 showdown is the NBC Sunday Night matchup.
Despite the Cowboys' and 49ers' underwhelming performances, there will be massive betting on pro football using crypto interest in this matchup. Dallas and San Francisco are two of the biggest public brands on the NFL board.
On Sunday, October 27, 2024, the San Francisco 49ers will host the Dallas Cowboys at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, CA. Kickoff time is set for 8:20 p.m. ET, and television coverage will be on NBC.

Jarred Goff went on to throw for 315 yards and three touchdowns. David Montgomery ran for two scores, and Detroit blew out Dallas. It was the Cowboys’ fourth consecutive lopsided loss at home.
Dak Prescott threw two interceptions in the worst home loss since 1988 for the Cowboys. Of course, there were plenty of boos for Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, and company. The star quarterback and his All-Pro receiver had more connection problems. Prescott finished with a 42.2 passer rating, the second-worst of his career.
The Dallas Cowboys football team remains one of the most popular teams on the board, but it too often fails to deliver reliable betting value.
