Dak Prescott Wild Card prop pick

Under 0.5 interceptions (-108)

The Dallas Cowboys' playoff struggles since the 90s have created a stigma around Dak Prescott, suggesting he performs poorly in postseason games. However, this perception doesn't align with the reality of Prescott's performance.

Prescott has played six career playoff games and averages 22.8 completions on 36.0 pass attempts for 259.8 yards per game. He also has thrown 11 touchdowns to only five interceptions and has also rushed for four touchdowns in those six postseason games.

The Green Bay Packers have been susceptible to giving up big yardage games to top quarterbacks. Jared Goff threw for 332 yards and two touchdowns with no picks in Week 12, and Baker Mayfield aired it out for 381 yards and four touchdowns with no picks in Week 15.

One huge stat that sticks out to me from all those performances is that both Mayfield and Goff eclipsed 300+ passing yards without turning the ball over. In fact, the Packers finished the season trailing only Tennessee in interceptions forced (7).

Dak had another great season when it came to ball security. He threw only nine interceptions to his 36 passing touchdowns, including just three INTs at Jerry World. 

Last year during the Wild Card round, Dak Prescott threw for 305 yards, four touchdowns, and zero picks against Tampa Bay. I expect similar results on Sunday in Arlington. 

Prop: Under 0.5 interceptions (-108 at FanDuel)

Dak Prescott Wild Card same-game parlay

Under 0.5 interceptions

Over 50.5 yards longest completion

Over 282.5 passing yards

Several appealing plays stand out in this game, complementing our best bet for a lucrative SGP.

The Cowboys boast the league's top offense this season, averaging 29.9 points per game. Particularly at home, their offensive prowess is even more remarkable, averaging a staggering 37.4 ppg. The Packers' offense has also thrived thanks to the continual improvements by Jordan Love. This sets the stage for a potential high-scoring shootout.

Prescott averaged 308.8 passing yards per game at home this season, and the Packers defense was no stranger to giving up plays against top QBs throughout the season.

Jeremy Jones was born and raised in Lexington, Kentucky and has been a massive Wildcats fans since the moment he came into the world. He wrote his first sports article at the tender age of 11 after attending a local AHL hockey game, and a few years later was writing professionally for sites such as Sports Rants, BetAmerica, and TwinSpires.

Jeremy holds a Masters in Sports Administration from Eastern Kentucky University and utilizes all seven betting options available in Kentucky to shop for odds and promos and find the greatest EV in every wager he places.

His best piece of sports betting advice is to stick to consistent unit sizes for every wager. He acknowledges there will occasionally be a bet that has a huge EV and you can play multiple units in one bet, but cautions against raising your unit size, because you can quickly lose all your winnings if you hit a minor cold streak.
