GAME OF THE MONTH (NFL): MIKE'S BEST NFC DIVISIONAL ROUND ATS BET
(NFL) Dallas vs. LA Rams,
Point Spread: 7.50 | -115.00 Dallas (Away)
Result: Loss
We cashed in big with the Dallas Cowboys in the Wild Card round, and I'm happy to take a touchdown+ on them here in their NFC Divisional round matchup with the LA Rams.

Ezekiel Elliot just won his second rushing title with 1,434 yards and the Cowboys rumbled for 164 yards on 34 carries in their 24-22 win over Seattle last week. Here they'll face a LA Rams defense that allowed a league-worst average of 5.07 yards per rush this season.

The Rams can do plenty of damage on the ground themselves, but their star running back Todd Gurley (league-best 21 TDs) sat out the final two games of the regular season with a knee injury and it's worth noting that Dallas boasts the fifth-best run defense in the league.

LA finished the regular season 2nd in the league in scoring offense with 32.9 points per game and QB Jared Goff has plenty of weapons, but I still think the visitors will be able to slow things down with their running game and make this a close contest.

Rams are 2-6-1 ATS in their last nine home games vs. a team with a winning road record and 1-5 ATS in their last six playoff games.

10* play on Dallas Cowboys.
