The Edge
Dallas's efficiency advantages across every meaningful category are too consistent to ignore even at 3 games, and getting +2.5 with the superior team is a lean worth taking.
Key Factors
Dallas +27.0 cumulative point differential vs Houston's -21.0 — a 48-point gap on the same 3-game sample
Dallas QB rating 107.2 vs Houston 87.3 — a 20-point gap signaling a functional passing game against a struggling one
Dallas 3rd-down conversion 57.1% vs Houston 36.4% — a 21pp gap in sustained-drive efficiency
Dallas allowed only 3 sacks vs Houston allowed 10 — a clear pass-protection edge against Houston's defense
