Dallas has dropped four straight since picking up their last win over a month ago. Now, let’s find out which team is offering the best value against the Week 11 NFL odds for this affair.

Cowboys vs Vikings Game Head-to-Head
These two teams might reside in the NFC, but they only meet once every three years. The Vikes and Boys have split the last six meetings evenly dating back to 2007. Minnesota came out on top the last time they met by recording a narrow, 28-24 road win as a 3.5-point underdog.
Things aren’t looking good in Big D, not to mention the fact that the Cowboys are a winless 0-5 ATS in their last 5 meetings and an identical 0-5 ATS in the last five meetings in Minnesota. In fact, they’ve only covered the spread in one out of their nine games all season. Last but not least, the Home team in this conference clash has gone 5-2 ATS in their last 7 meetings.

Last Game
Dallas had a bye in Week 10 and they put up a great effort in their 24-19 Week 9 home loss against Pittsburgh, although the Boys easily covered the spread as a 14-point underdog to pick up their only ATS cover of the season. Quarterback Garrett Gilbert passed for 243 yards with one touchdown and one interception while rookie wideout CeeDee Lamb added 71 receiving yards and one touchdown in the loss.
Stats Pack
Dallas ranks eighth in total offense, 4th in passing, 17th in rushing and 23rd in scoring (22.7 ppg). Defensively, the Cowboys are ranked 23rd overall and 11th against the pass, a dismal 31st against the run and dead last (32nd) in points allowed (32.2 ppg).
Trends
Ezekiel Elliott doesn’t have a single 100-yard rushing game this season while getting held to 54 yards or less five times in Dallas’ last seven games. Still, the Cowboys have found a real gem in rookie wideout CeeDee Lamb (ya’ think?) with the former Oklahoma star catching at least four passes in eight of the Cowboys’ nine games this season.
