Eagles @ Cowboys More or Less Contest
Recommended Prop Pick:
Dake Prescott less than 280.5 passing yards and Jalen Hurts more than 250.5 passing yards
This Eagles pass defense has looked solid in its first two games as they have allowed the fewest passing yards by quarterbacks with a mark of just 353 yards. They allowed Matt Ryan to throw for just 164 yards in Week 1 and then gave up just 189 passing yards to Jimmy Garoppolo last week. This feels like the perfect game to get Ezekiel Elliott moving on the right track as well considering the Eagles have allowed running backs to average nearly 103 rushing yards per game over the first two weeks.
Jalen Hurts has been great to start 2021 and he now has 454 passing yards through the first two games. He gets a great matchup this week against the Cowboys who let Tom Brady throw for 379 yards in Week 1 and then allowed Justin Herbert to throw for 338 passing yards a week ago. This is a game where the Eagles are currently 3.5 point underdogs and could also be forced to pass a bit more late in the game and this is the perfect defense to do that against, currently.

Eagles @ Cowboys Touchdown Dance
Recommended Prop Pick:
Ezekiel Elliott, CeeDee Lamb, and DeVonta Smith to combine for more than 1.5 touchdowns
Zeke feels like the most obvious play for me in this contest against the Eagles. As aforementioned, the Eagles are allowing backs to average over 100 rushing yards per game. While they have yet to allow a touchdown to a running back this season, the rushing numbers suggest that is just a bit fortunate for them. Zeke has been given the ball 31 times (rushing and receiving) over the previous two weeks and has found the end zone once. The Cowboys should look to get him established early and he should be able to find the end zone again here.
CeeDee Lamb has been beasting to begin 2021 and now has 15 catches on 24 targets for 185 yards and a touchdown. He and Amari Cooper are the target hogs in this offense and Lamb should have the better matchup in this one as Cooper is likely to see a large portion of Darius Slay. Look for Lamb to get open on a crossing route in this one and find himself in the endzone.
The Cowboys have given up 483 receiving yards and three touchdowns to wide receivers over the course of the first two weeks, so it certainly makes sense to get an Eagles wideout in this play. Smith has been the leading target getter in this offense thus far as he has 15 targets and has managed to haul in eight of them for 87 yards and a touchdown. Hurts knows that he and Smith will be paired together for quite some time as long as they produce, so he will want to continue to build a rapport with him and that should continue this week.
