Best Bet

Cowboys -6.5 @ $1.90

Bet Now

We are betting against the Commanders as opposed to betting on the Cowboys. The Commanders have only one win from their last 10 games, which came against the struggling New York Giants.

The Cowboys come off three consecutive losses to the Lions, Vikings, and Chargers, but they were competitive for the most part. They weren’t terrible efforts, and Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb are starting to heat up.

There are more attacking weapons with the Cowboys, and ever since the Commanders lost their quarterback to a horrific arm injury, they haven’t been the same team. Therefore, the Cowboys should take advantage and cover the –6.5 spread. We recommend taking the –6.5 line before money comes for the visitors.

Same Game Multi

Cowboys -6.5, CeeDee Lamb Anytime Touchdown Scorer, Dak Prescott Over 274.5 Passing Yards, Over 50.5 Points @ $9.25

Bet Now

Our NFL picks this week have Lamb scoring a touchdown. The Cowboys’ receiver has only one TD in his last five games, but he showed good signs last week. He has 1000 yards in each of his last five seasons, so he’s getting opportunities to score.

Prescott is still one of the best passing quarterbacks in the NFL, and against a struggling Commanders team, he could light up the field. The line is high for a reason, and he could post 300+ passing yards.

Over 50.5 points is included in our NFL same game multi. They scored 66 points when meeting in October, and it should be a similar score.

Best Value Bet

Cowboys 11-20 @ $4.25

Bet Now

It should be a convincing win for the Cowboys, and we’re backing them to win by 11-20 points.

They won by 22 points in their first meeting, but it should be a slightly closer game on the road. They are under pressure to win, which could see them start slower than expected.

Winning by two touchdowns is likely, so take the value odds.
