The NFC East takes center stage on Monday Night when the Dallas Cowboys and the New York Giants play. This matchup will look a little different since Dak Prescott is out, but Cooper Rush showed that he's not here to lose.

The Cowboys have dominated this matchup on the scoreboard, but here are three ways we can dominate this matchup in the prop market.

Best Prop Bets For Cowboys-Giants Week 3

  • Daniel Jones UNDER Passing Yards
  • Tony Pollard OVER Rushing Yards
  • Saquon Barkely OVER Rushing Yards

Daniel Jones UNDER 200.5 Passing Yards

In his career against the Cowboys, Jones averages 155 passing yards per game – his second-lowest total against any team. Dallas’ defense has been good this season, and I think the pass rush will be enough to throw Daniel Jones’ off.

Jones hasn't cleared this line in either game this season. With Saquon Barkley back in form, expect the Giants to try and win this game on the ground.

Tony Pollard OVER 37.5 Rushing Yards

Pollard has cleared this line in 11 of his last 17 games, and the Giants are a good opportunity to clear it again. New York gives up one less rushing yard than Dallas – who is 20th in the league. Pollard gets enough touches and enough carries to justify backing him this week. His big play ability can outweigh the fact he’s not a great blocker and keep him on the field. 

Saquon Barkley OVER 76.5 Rushing Yards

Dallas allows 120 rushing yards per game as it is. With Barkley’s resurgence as one of the top backs in the league, this is going to be a good day for him. Barkley saw an increase in touches last week against the Panthers. If that number goes up again, it won’t matter if he runs for an inefficient 3.9 yards per attempt. The volume is going to be there. This also goes along with my skepticism of Daniel Jones. If Jones isn’t leading the offense, it will be Barkley.
