Cowboys vs. 49ers Best NFL bets for Sunday’s Week 8 NFL football game

Cowboys vs. 49ers Best NFL bets for Sunday’s Week 8 NFL football game

The San Francisco 49ers will host the Dallas Cowboys this week on Sunday Night Football.

The game total is 47 and the Niners are -4.5 favorites.

Here are my favorite player props from this competition.

DraftKings Sportsbook Odds.

Dak Prescott over 1.5 passing attempts (+115)

In 2023, after the bye, Prescott threw for four touchdowns. After the bye in 2022, he threw three. In fact, in his entire career, Dak has never had fewer than two touchdowns in his first game back after a bye.

Add in his new commitment and the fact that the Cowboys’ suggested point total is 21, and it’s hard to see Prescott not being a match.

With this value I cannot ignore it.

Jordan Mason over 79.5 rushing yards (-115)

Purdy may be without all of its starting pass-catchers, and the Niners will almost certainly continue to rely on the running game against a Cowboys defense that has allowed opposing running backs to gain 109 yards per game and eight touchdowns in just six games total this season. .

Mason was held in check by the Chiefs last Sunday, but should return to form against the Cowboys this weekend. Mason is averaging 5.2 yards per carry and 18 attempts per game this season.

Rico Dowdle over 13.5 receiving yards (-120)
Rico Dowdle over 2.5 reps (+120)

The Niners were tough against the run, allowing an average of just 97 yards and 3.8 yards per carry. However, pass-catching runners found success against San Francisco.

The 49ers averaged five catches and 41 yards per game with an 85% success rate on opposing running backs. Dowdle has had a receiving touchdown in two of the last three games, and considering the Niners focused on CeeDee Lamb and allowed wide receivers to catch just 53.8%, Dowdle may get more of Dak’s attention on Sunday.

Dowdle crossed that mark in three of his six games, and that mark in five.
