The Rams are fresh off a loss to the San Francisco 49ers, travel to Jerry World to take on Cooper Rush and the Dallas Cowboys. This is going to be one of the more interesting games as a quarterback controversy is bubbling and the Rams look nothing close to the world champions they were last year. 

Outside of Dak Prescott, all the playmakers on both teams are going to be on the field in this one. Let’s look at what props are available for us to back those playmakers.

Best Prop Bets For Cowboys-Rams Week 5

  • Cooper Rush UNDER 233.5 Passing Yards
  • Darrell Henderson OVER 30.5 Rushing Yards
  • CeeDee Lamb to Score a Touchdown

Cooper Rush UNDER 233.5 Passing Yards

Rush has played well and he’s gotten the Cowboys to 3-1 on the season. However, he hasn’t been prolific in his time as the starter. He still hasn’t cleared 250 yards passing and has only cleared 230 yards once. 

The Rams’ may have some issues, but Rush isn’t going to dissect any defense at an elite level. His running backs should be able to make a few plays, and he should be seeing some short fields considering how aggressive that defense is. 

Darrell Henderson OVER 30.5 Rushing Yards

The Cowboys have a great defense, but the one thing they struggle at is stopping the run. Dallas is 24th in opponent yards per carry and 27th in opponent yards per game. His carries went up last week after only getting 4 carries against the Cardinals.

He and Akers should find some success on the ground, helping out the offense. He cleared this line in the first two games of the season. All he needs now is the opportunity to perform. 

CeeDee Lamb to Score a Touchdown

Lamb has really come alive and stepped into the No.1 role over the last two weeks. He’s had 20 targets, 14 catches, 184 yards and a touchdown in both games. Rush is now looking his way and knows he can find him anywhere. Jalen Ramsey has been beaten a couple times this year by good wide receivers, so it wouldn’t shock me if Lamb added his name to the list.

As long as Lamb continues to get the volume of targets, I like backing him.
