The Cowboys gave the defending Super Bowl champions all they could handle last week and almost spoiled their banner raising ceremony. However, in the end, the Eagles managed to lock up the 24-20 win over the Cowboys. Dallas had a hard time getting its offense going as Dak Prescott threw for only 188 yards in the game. His favorite target on the night was CeeDee Lamb who accounted for 110 of those passing yards on 7 receptions. His team is in a great spot for a get-right game as they have secured eight straight wins against the Giants. In fact, Dallas has won 15 of its last 16 meetings against New York’s NFC representative.
The Giants ushered in the Russell Wilson era by scoring only six points against the Washington Commanders in their season opener. The veteran signal caller completed only 17 of his 37 pass attempts for 168 yards and no touchdowns. On the whole, Washington out gained New York 432-231 on the day. It was also a rough day on the ground for the Giants. Wilson ended the day as the team’s leading rusher with 44 yards on 8 carries. They enter this game das 5.5 point underdogs on most books and need help to win this week.

Bobby Okereke Over 7.5 Tackles + Assists (-130 via HARD ROCK)

He ended last season by posting 9 combined tackles against the Dallas Cowboys team he faces this week. Overall, Okereke accounted for at least 8 total tackles in 9 of his 12 appearances last season. Dallas ran the ball 22 times last week against the Eagles which should give Okereke plenty of opportunity to cash this prop this week if they keep to this script.
