NFL Best Bets: Top Dak Prescott Prop Bet for Monday Night Football

Published:

By: Brendan O'Sullivan

The Cowboys and Raiders are playing some awful football this season, but one of these clubs has to win this game. Both teams enter on losing streaks.

Dallas is a 3.5-point favorite and -185 on the moneyline, while Las Vegas is +154 on DraftKings Sportsbook. The game total is set at 49.5 points.

Here are my top Dak Prescott prop bets for the Cowboys vs. Raiders matchup on Monday Night Football.

Best Dak Prescott Prop Bets

Dallas has an incredibly potent offense, but it’s basically playing zero defense. The team ranks fourth in points and yards but 31st in points and yards allowed. It’s quite a gap that makes contending difficult.

It’s good for bettors who love a good offensive showing. Prescott is pouring in points each week and this shouldn’t be any different against Las Vegas. The Raiders rank 20th in points allowed and 15th in yards allowed this season.

It’s not as bad as Dallas, but it’s still a weak unit that Prescott can exploit. There are a few props I considered, but I’m taking Prescott’s over passing yards. It’s set at 256.5 for -113 odds.

Prescott has hit this mark in four of nine games, but has hit at least 250 yards in six of nine. The Raiders don’t present much resistance, and the Cowboys will need to stay aggressive on offense since their defense is lackluster.

Best Bet: Dak Prescott over 256.5 passing yards (-113)
