The NFL season is in full swing, and the favorites podcast is back to break down the entire slate of games. This week, hosts Chad Milman and Simon Hunter are feeling optimistic after a tough week three, where they went 2-3. They're looking to bounce back and make some smart picks in their $100,000 pro football pick'em contest.

One game that caught their attention is the Thursday night matchup between the Dallas Cowboys and the New York Giants. The current line is 4.5, and Simon is bullish on the Cowboys, despite their recent struggles. He thinks the Giants are due for a letdown after a big win last week, and the Cowboys are a good spot to take in this exact scenario. Chad agrees, and they both think the line will continue to move up as more professional money comes in.

The hosts also touched on the coaching carousel, with Jerry Jones and the Cowboys coming under fire for sticking with Mike McCarthy. They compared it to the Bears' decision to keep Matt Nagy and hire a new coach, and wonder if the old boys club is still in play in the NFL. Despite all the negative vibes surrounding the Cowboys, they're willing to take them in this spot and hope for a bounce-back performance.
