The Dallas Cowboys put up a strong effort against the Green Bay Packers in Week 4, and are being rewarded by the oddsmakers as slight road favorites for Week 5 against the New York Jets.

The Dallas Cowboys may have walked away from the Week 4 showdown with the Green Bay Packers with a disheartening tie and another horrendous defensive performance, but the team showed some fight and was able to dig deep to nearly pull off a win.

Now that the Cowboys have proven again that they can hang with one of the top teams in the NFL, the oddsmakers are showing some love ahead of a Week 5 meeting with the New York Jets.

To open the week, FanDuel Sportsbook has listed the Cowboys as 2.5-point (-110) road favorites at MetLife Stadium. Dallas is a slight -135 moneyline favorite for the game.
