The Dallas Cowboys pulled off a stunning comeback on Sunday afternoon, capping off Week 2 with a thrilling Week 2 overtime win over the division rival New York Giants.

For Week 3, the Cowboys hit the road to Soldier Field for a showdown with the 0-2 Chicago Bears.

While the Cowboys secured the dub, the Bears were blown out on Sunday afternoon in a divisional clash of their own. The Bears left Ford Field after suffering a 52-21 loss to the Detroit Lions.

According to FanDuel Sportsbook, the Cowboys will travel to the Windy City as 1.5-point underdogs.

The moneyline is a virtual pick 'em with both teams listed at -108, and the over/under is set for a whopping 48.5 total points, which is the second-highest point total on the board to open the week.

If you're betting the moneyline, that means you would have to wager $108 dollars on either team to net a $100 return, but the oddsmakers truly see it as a toss up.

It will be interesting to see how the betting line shifts as the week continues, but for now, Dallas can enter Week 3 in the underdog role.
