Giants vs Cowboys Anytime Touchdown Picks for Thanksgiving Day: Tyrone Keeps Truckin'

Tyrone Tracy still gets the bulk of New York's carries and even though he didn't find the end zone in Week 12, that only makes his price better today. Additionally, Neil Parker is targeting Cowboys TE Brevyn Spann-Ford as a sleeper TD pick.

It’s an NFC East Thanksgiving tilt between the New York Giants and Dallas Cowboys at AT&T Stadium on Thursday, November 28, and while this has been a season to forget for both teams, their final meeting of 2024 should carry more weight for the long-time rivals.

My top NFL picks and Giants vs. Cowboys anytime touchdown prop picks are headlined by rookies Tyrone Tracy and Brevyn Spann-Ford.

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy has received the bulk of the carries out of the backfield in the past five games with 63 total rushes and 10 of the red-zone variety compared to Devin Singletary’s 19 totes that included last week’s lone red-zone rush he converted into a score.

Still, Tracy's also had the nose for the end zone. He’s scored in three of the past six games, and he’s also piled up 10 red-zone rushes across the past four.

Additionally, the Dallas Cowboys have surrendered the second-most rushing touchdowns (13) to opposing running backs this season with 10 coming at AT&T Stadium. Of course, Dallas has also allowed six rushing scores to opposing quarterbacks on home turf, and the Cowboys have also surrendered a league-high 75.7% of opponents to convert red-zone trips into touchdowns.

Looking for a Thanksgiving flier?

Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson is set to miss his second consecutive game, so Brevyn Spann-Ford will see extra run again vs. the Giants. Spann-Ford is a potential matchup nightmare at 6-foot-7. He’s run 35 routes and turned his seven targets into six receptions for 66 yards in the past two weeks. 

Additionally, there would be extra familiarity with Dallas QB Cooper Rush and Spann-Ford playing pitch and catch with the second-team offense dating back to training camp.

While the Giants have only allowed a single receiving touchdown to an opposing tight end this season, they have surrendered the highest catch percentage to the position (84.8%) and a healthy 8.43 yards per target.

Neil takes a numbers-based approach to his handicapping and complements his in-depth statistical analysis with a keen eye on the markets to provide the best available odds. He loves to lean on his rolodex of idioms to offset his inner nerd. When it comes to wagering, he throws down on anything that catches his eye at bet365, Betway and BetVictor. He also keeps a close eye on CoolBet because the polar bear brand often has outlier NHL and NFL moneyline prices.

Neil graduated with honors from St. Thomas University in 2007 before completing his BEd at Acadia University in 2010. After teaching a myriad of courses and subjects, he found a groove delivering fun lessons to exceptional learners in non-traditional classroom environments. If his decade-plus teaching run taught him anything about sports betting, it’s to stay the course and use the summer – or offseason – to refresh and prepare to be better in the year to come.

Neil’s top pieces of advice for recreational bettors are to stay within your means and to remember sportsbooks aren’t bank accounts. Don’t be afraid to pull those winnings and treat yourself to a lifetime experience courtesy of a big win.
