Bid D won\u2019t be happy to see the <em>Boys in Blue<\/em> are outside the top ten in odds to win Super Bowl 56 in 2022 at SoFi stadium in Inglewood, California. Draft Kings has Dallas tied in a five-way tie for 12<sup>th<\/sup> highest odds to win Super Bowl 56. Headlining next season\u2019s odds is none other than the Kansas City Chiefs. According to these odds, Dallas has a host of NFC teams to go through before even reaching the Super Bowl. At least the Cowboys are garnishing a small amount of respect at 28:1 compared to the next highest NFC East team: Philadelphia Eagles at 50:1. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportingnews.com\/us\/nfl\/news\/super-bowl-2022-date-location-odds-halftime\/1t40ifvvs96dt1omjnw0tzp738\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">(Super Bowl 2022 Odds)<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[pickup_prop id=&#8221;4349&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h2>Dallas Cowboys Odds to Win Super Bowl 56; Not Great<\/h2>\n<p>The odds-makers clearly believe Dallas is more than a few pieces away from seriously contending for a Super Bowl. The Dallas Cowboys odds to win Super Bowl 56 are disappointing considering recent team success and the addition of young talent. Dallas looks to get healthy this off-season as key players have had successful surgeries and expect to make full recoveries by the start of the season. Key injuries include: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/players\/P\/PresDa01.htm?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dak Prescott<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/players\/S\/SmitTy00.htm?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tyron Smith<\/a>, La\u2019el Collins, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/players\/E\/ErviCa00.htm?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cameron Erving<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/players\/M\/MartZa00.htm?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Zack Martin<\/a>. The Cowboys also have the NFL draft and a top 10 pick to add to their defensive ranks. Current mock drafts have Dallas landing on a cornerback, line-backer, or edge rusher to fortify the porous defense.<\/p>\n<h3>Surprising Odds-Leaders<\/h3>\n<p>There are some surprising teams in the top 10. The San Francisco 49ers, Cleveland Browns, and Miami Dolphins all have better odds to win Super Bowl 56 than the Dallas Cowboys. All three of these teams have question marks at multiple positions and play in highly competitive divisions, making their roads to the Super Bowl-or even the playoffs-difficult to say the least.<\/p>\n<h3>San Francisco 49ers Question Marks<\/h3>\n<p>The 49ers are surprising, as they struggled to win this season after their myriad of injuries. Giving them good odds assumes they recover from injury and pick up right where they left off. Unfortunately for the 49ers, they still have questions at quarterback. With trade rumors flying around involving <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/players\/G\/GaroJi00.htm?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Jimmy Garoppolo<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/players\/S\/StafMa00.htm?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Matthew Stafford<\/a> (now with the Los Angeles Rams), It\u2019s apparent that the 49ers coaching staff and front office is losing confidence in Garoppolo.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">PFF Grade since 2018:<br \/>\ud83d\udd38 Kirk Cousins: 88.9 (7th)<br \/>\ud83d\udd38 Jimmy Garoppolo: 75.6 (T-22nd) <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/aW4TmiZO3e\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/aW4TmiZO3e<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; PFF (@PFF) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PFF\/status\/1356375580854378500?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">February 1, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h3>Cleveland Browns Emergence<\/h3>\n<p>The Cleveland Browns showed some early spark after drafting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/players\/M\/MayfBa00.htm?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Baker Mayfield<\/a> first overall in 2018, but quickly fell back to the NFL\u2019s basement missing the playoffs in Mayfield\u2019s rookie season. The Browns were an even bigger disappointment after trading for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/players\/B\/BeckOd00.htm?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Odell Beckham<\/a> Jr. in the off-season before missing the playoffs and adding to their 18 year playoff drought. The 2020 season started off rough for the Browns as Mayfield looked to disappoint again before turning the corner and finishing as one of the most efficient passers in the NFL. Despite the Browns finding success in the second half of the 2020 season, Cleveland plays in an extremely difficulty division and has yet to find success in consecutive seasons in over a decade.<\/p>\n<h3>Miami&#8217;s Two Quarterback System<\/h3>\n<p>The Miami Dolphins are another huge surprise here. Miami used their 2020 draft pick on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/players\/T\/TagoTu00.htm?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tua Tagovailoa<\/a>, the apparent quarterback in waiting. Tagovailoa failed to earn a starting position over the journeyman <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/players\/F\/FitzRy00.htm?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ryan Fitzpatrick<\/a>. Roughly halfway through the season, the Dolphins coaching staff elected to name Tagovailoa the starter, which didn\u2019t last long. Multiple times throughout the rest of the season, Ryan Fitzpatrick replaced Tagovailoa as the quarterback as the rookie was unable to lead his team to a victory. Recent stories have surfaced about multiple players questioning Tagovailoa\u2019s talent and ability to win as a quarterback in the NFL. With these issues, the Dolphins have too many questions to be considered as a serious Super Bowl contender. <a href=\"https:\/\/itsgame7.com\/tua-tagovailoas-teammates-mercilessly-disrespect-him\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">(Tua Tagovailoa&#8217;s Teammates Mercilessly Disrespect Him)<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Issues in Dallas<\/h3>\n<p>Dallas has question marks of their own. Dak Prescott coming off a major ankle surgery is a big reason Dallas could potentially miss the playoffs. Another big issue: Prescott may not even be in \u00a0Dallas uniform with free agency looming. The quarterback market has exploded and many teams are in need of a signal caller. If another team is willing to pay Prescott $40 million, he may elect to jump the proverbial ship. The Cowboys offensive line is nearly ancient as multiple linemen are pushing, or have reached, age 30. The defense continues to be a big problem for Dallas as well. With a multitude of injuries and shrinking salary cap woes, it\u2019s unlikely Dallas will be able to sign big defensive names. The Cowboys will look to the NFL draft to solidify the defense at every level.<\/p>\n<h3>Cautious Optimism for Dallas Fans<\/h3>\n<p>All that being said, we know Dallas have a prolific run game when <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/players\/E\/ElliEz00.htm?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ezekiel Elliott<\/a> runs hard behind a healthy offensive line. We also know Prescott continues to improve each season and now has a dangerous receiving core with the veteran leadership of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/players\/C\/CoopAm00.htm?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Amari Cooper<\/a>, and the emergence of rookie <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/players\/L\/LambCe00.htm?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CeeDee Lamb<\/a>.
