TNF Props
| Devonta Smith 55+ receiving yards | -113 |
The Eagles are arguably the best team in the league, and their diverse, yet balanced offense has been the primary weapon in the title quest. Devonta Smith and AJ Brown were perfect last year. Here, we pick Smith to have 55+ receiving yards because of the recent Micah Parsons trade.
Hurts won’t have to hurry or engage in any forced rushes because one of the best defensive players in the league won’t be playing for the Cowboys. Therefore, the Eagles’ QB should have enough time to find his receivers downfield.
| Saquon Barkley 14+ receiving yards | -118 |
We were thinking whether to go with this one or not, and eventually we had to mention it here. Parsons is out, the Cowboys’ defense will need time to sync now when their top star is out, and this is again a nice chance for Hurts to relax his arm and increase the number of passes.
We all know that he likes to run and often uses play-action; in that case, Barkley will benefit from it. Particularly now when the O-Line won’t have to double-team Parsons.
| AJ Brown 1+ TD | +160 |
This pick has value, and due to its high odds, we simply needed to take it. Due to all of the above-mentioned, Brown scoring at least one touchdown looks tempting, because he is the leading receiver of the unit, and to be honest, we were surprised upon seeing this profitable moneyline.
Just to remind, Brown had 1,079 receiving yards and 7 TD catches. This game promises to be all about Philly, and it would be pretty strange not to see Eagles’ tight end in the middle of it.
