Eagles vs Cowboys props
Prop bet #1: Saquon Barkley Over 85.5 rushing yards
Saquon Barkley has reinvented himself this season after signing with the Philadephia Eagles in free agency. The veteran running back is a huge reason Philly is one of the top teams in the league, rushing for 5.9 yards per carry and 925 yards in total for six touchdowns. He’s second in the NFL in rushing yards behind only Derrick Henry.
Saquon happens to be on an absolute heater right now. He’s rushed for 100+ yards in three straight outings and just cooked the Jaguars for 159 yards on the ground in Week 9. That included possibly the wildest play of 2024 when he backward-hurdled over a Jacksonville defender.
He's cashed the Over on his rushing yards in six of his eight appearances this season. The Dallas Cowboys defense is terrible overall and is 30th in the league in rushing yards allowed. All signs point to the 27-year-old having another banner day on the ground.
Prop bet #2: DeVonta Smith Over 51.5 receiving yards
The Eagles dealt with some offensive injuries earlier in the campaign, with DeVonta Smith and A.J. Brown both missing time. However, Smith only missed one game, while Brown sat for much longer. That meant DeVonta had to really step up and be WR1 for Philadelphia — and he did just that.
In seven contests, the former Alabama standout has a team-high 35 receptions for 473 yards and four touchdowns. For some reason, his receiving yard total is set quite low for Sunday’s matchup. He’s hit the Over in all but one game this season and is averaging 67.6 yards per game.
In Week 9, Smith reeled in four catches for 87 yards. Brown usually has more grabs, but Smith’s yards per catch are impressive. This Cowboys pass defense ranks 17th, and DeVonta averaged 62 yards per game against Dallas in 2023.
Prop bet #3: CeeDee Lamb Over 5.5 receptions
There isn’t much going right for America’s Team. Dak Prescott is heading to the IR, they cannot play defense, and they can’t run the football. However, a lone bright spot is star wideout CeeDee Lamb, who's a consistent contributor week in and week out.
Dallas ranks fourth in passing yards and Lamb is a huge reason for it. He leads the team with 53 receptions, 660 yards, and four scores. The options downfield for the Cowboys are limited, but Lamb always comes through.
Despite the losing streak, the 25-year-old is playing well. He’s hit the Over in this market in three straight games and four of his last five. In a Week 9 loss to Atlanta, Lamb had eight receptions for 47 yards.
Even with Cooper Rush under center, Lamb remains the top target and one of the only dependable offensive options.
