Cowboys vs Giants TNF TD Scorer Prop Odds
The Cowboys are the sixth-highest-scoring team in the NFL, averaging 25.7 points per game. They square off against a Giants defense that allows 21.3 points per game.
Cowboys star WR CeeDee Lamb finally got paid after a preseason contract dispute, but he’s only scored one touchdown in three games. He’s due for a big game, which is why we like him to score an anytime TD at -115 odds and two TDs at +550 odds according to DraftKings.
PLAYER | FIRST TD | ANYTIME TD | 2+ TDs |
Devin Singletary | +550 | -115 | +550 |
CeeDee Lamb | +600 | -110 | +600 |
Malik Nabers | +850 | +130 | +900 |
Ezekiel Elliott | +950 | +170 | +900 |
Rico Dowdle | +950 | +170 | +1200 |
Jake Ferguson | +1000 | +180 | +1400 |
Brandin Cooks | +1200 | +240 | +2200 |
Daniel Jones | +1200 | +245 | +1900 |
Dak Prescott | +1600 | +330 | +3000 |
The Giants are the fourth-lowest-scoring team in the NFL, averaging 15.0 points per game. In both of their losses, they averaged 12 points per game. The good news is that the Cowboys have the third-worst scoring defense, allowing 29.7 points per game.
The Giants only scored six offensive touchdowns, but two players generated the bulk of their scoring: rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers and veteran running back Devin Singletary. Singletary is the outright favorite to score the first touchdown of the game at +550 odds and to score an anytime TD at -115.
Only three games into the season, and it’s obvious that Nabers is the best player on the Giants. He scored three touchdowns in the last two games, including two in their first victory of the season in Week 3. Nabers has one of our favorite TNF player props at +130 odds to score an anytime TD.
Cowboys vs Giants Best TNF Passing Props
Prescott leads the NFL with 851 passing yards but has a career-low 60.7% completion rate. He tossed four touchdowns and two interceptions through three games. Prescott has been steadily improving with 179 passing yards in Week 1, then 293 yards in Week 2, before cranking out 379 yards and two touchdowns in Week 3. We like his passing yardage total to exceed 263.5 o/u against the Giants.
Prescott is also -120 odds to throw two or more touchdowns and +350 odds to throw three or more.
PLAYER | PASSING PROP BET | OVER ODDS | UNDER ODDS |
Dak Prescott | 263.5 Yards O/U | -115 | -115 |
Daniel Jones | 198.5 Yards O/U | -115 | -115 |
Giants QB Daniel Jones was in jeopardy of losing his starting job after a subpar performance in the first two games when he completed only 54.3% of his passes, threw two interceptions, and was sacked six times. Fans were trolling Jones and the Giants on social media while begging head coach Brian Daboll to bench Jones in favor of backup Tommy DeVito.
Jones saved his job with a strong performance in Week 3’s win against the Browns. He completed 70.6% of his passes for 236 yards and two touchdowns.
Jones is a big favorite to throw more than one touchdown at -235 odds, but he’s +250 odds to throw two or more.
Cowboys vs Giants Best TNF Receiving Props
TNF will be a fun game to watch featuring one of the top wide receivers in the NFL, Lamb, and one of the most exciting rookies, Nabers. Some of the best Cowboys vs Giants player props involve Lamb and Nabers, and we’re expecting an epic showdown.
Lamb has not caught more than five passes in a game so far this season and has only four receptions in his last two games. He hasn’t hit the century mark either, with a season-high of 90 yards in Week 2. But we anticipate Lamb will deliver a prime-time performance on TNF. We like Lamb to go over 79.5 receiving yards.
PLAYER | RECEIVING PROP BET | OVER ODDS | UNDER ODDS |
CeeDee Lamb | 79.5 Yards O/U | -115 | -115 |
Malik Nabers | 72.5 Yards O/U | -115 | -115 |
Jake Ferguson | 43.5 Yards O/U | -115 | -115 |
Brandin Cooks | 37.5 Yards O/U | -115 | -115 |
Jalen Tolbert | 28.5 Yards O/U | -120 | -110 |
Nabers, the #6 overall pick out of LSU, leads the Giants with 37 targets. If Jones were a more accurate passer, Nabers would have more than 23 receptions. He has 271 receiving yards, including 127 yards in Week 2. Nabers was easily the best offensive weapon on the field in Week 3’s upset over the Cleveland Browns when he hauled in eight catches for 78 yards and two touchdowns.
Nabers has a yardage total of 72.5 yards for TNF, which he has surpassed in each of the last two games. We’re eying the over.
