Packers vs Cowboys props

Prop bet #1: Rushing for Love

The line on Jordan Love's rushing yards has already risen once having originally been at 6.5 but I’m happy to wager on the Green Bay Packers’ QB even at the slightly higher line of 7.5 rushing yards. In 17 games this season we’ve seen Love hit eight or more rushing yards in 10 games and let’s not forget that in the past three weeks, he’s scored two rushing touchdowns too. 

He’s a quarterback who favors his arm but is not afraid to use his legs and there’s a real chance he could be forced to scramble if the Dallas Cowboys’ pass rush can evade his offensive line. With the season on the line, I think we’re likely to see Love try to take the team on his back.

Jordan Love prop: Love Over 7.5 rushing yards (-110 at bet365)

Prop bet #2: Can't pick Love

Jordan Love is odds-on to get picked off against the Cowboys and you can understand why given that they’ve had 17 interceptions this season and have a much-acclaimed defense. I’d argue that perhaps, despite being ranked fifth in defensive DVOA there is a chance that they are slightly overrated and merely a very good defense and not an all-world one. 

One of the most impressive things about Jordan Love’s season has been his protection of the football. Despite being picked off 11 times this season eight of those came in the first half of the season. As the year has progressed we’ve seen him continue to grow and develop as a quarterback. He’s been great in the final stretch of the season and has only been picked off once in his past eight games. As much as the Cowboys’ defense is good, I can’t say no to +110 on Love not getting intercepted when it’s happened just once in the past two months.

Prop bet #3: Praying for a TD

Christian Watson is questionable for Sunday’s game but he’s been in practice this week, albeit limited, and is expected to be good to go, especially after nearly suiting up last week. That is great news for Love and the Packers who need their sophomore pass catcher to be ready.

Jayden Reed has been brilliant for the Packers this season but Christian Watson offers speed that neither Reed nor anybody else on the Packers’ roster can offer. He’s lightning-quick and has form against this team, with his breakout performance last season being a 107-yard, three-touchdown game against the Cowboys. If the Packers are to win they’re going to need the deep threat from Watson and I believe we’ll see him score on Sunday.

Christian Watson prop: Anytime touchdown (+220 at Caesars)
