Schule's NFLX Total Recall T-E-R-M-I-N-A-T-O-R
(NFL) Dallas vs. San Diego, 08/13/2015 6:00 PM, Score: 7 - 17
Total: 38.00 | -107.00 Over
Result: Win
This is a 5* play on DAL@SD to go UNDER the total.

It came as no surprise that we saw another low scoring tilt between the Steelers and the Vikings in this year's Hall of Fame Game. The first game of the pre-season has failed to go over 37 points in eight of the last 11 annual events. Low scoring games are the norm in the pre-season, and I find it a little odd that bookmakers seem overly optimistic about how many points are going to be scored here in Week 1. We saw five of the six games go under on the opening Thursday of the 2014 pre-season, and only five of 18 games saw more than 37 points scored in the entire first week.

The Cowboys and the Chargers met on Thursday night last season, and the Chargers won that game by a score of 27-7. Tony Romo did not play at all in that game, while Philip Rivers came in for just one series, going 4-for-4 for 61 yards with no TDs and no picks. Neither coach showed any desire to play their starters, and we will assume that it will be the same approach here this time around.

Take UNDER.
