Dallas arrives in Denver with the league’s best offense, but the Broncos have quietly become one of the toughest, most physical teams in football. Expect a battle of firepower versus grit, and four prop bets that capture how this one should unfold.
JK Dobbins over 68.5 rushing yards
Denver’s offense finally has an identity, and it starts with J.K. Dobbins. The veteran back has injected life into Sean Payton’s system, sitting seventh in the NFL in rushing after another strong outing against the Giants. He’s averaging nearly six yards per carry over the past two weeks and remains the focal point of Denver’s late-game comebacks. His 30-plus-yard burst last Sunday showed exactly why this run game has become their backbone.
Dallas is vulnerable where Dobbins thrives. The Cowboys rank near the bottom of the league in rushing defense and routinely give up chunk gains. With Denver gaining 142 rushing yards on just 24 carries last week, Dobbins should easily clear 70 yards if Payton sticks to the plan. Expect a steady 18 to 20 carries as the Broncos look to shorten the game and control the tempo.
Tip: Bet JK Dobbins over 68.5 rushing yards

Dobbins hot as of late

Courtland Sutton anytime touchdown (+130)
Quarterback Bo Nix has developed a clear go-to target in the red zone, and it’s Courtland Sutton. The chemistry between the two has been obvious in key moments, with Sutton consistently drawing looks on fades, slants, and contested catches inside the 20. He’s built for those tight-window throws and remains Denver’s best jump-ball option near the goal line.
Dallas’ secondary has struggled all year, ranking near the bottom of the league in coverage metrics and allowing one of the highest rates of open targets. Sutton’s size and physicality pose problems for smaller Cowboys corners, and his target share in scoring range makes this prop a strong value. At +130, he’s the most logical bet to find the end zone for Denver.
Tip: Bet Courtland Sutton anytime touchdown

George Pickens longest reception over 23.5 yards
George Pickens has quickly become the Cowboys’ most dangerous deep threat. Since joining Dallas, he’s changed how defenses play All-Pro receiver CeeDee Lamb by forcing safeties to honor the vertical game. He leads the league in yards gained from defensive pass interference and ranks near the top in yards per catch against press coverage. Simply put — Dallas will keep taking their shots.
With star cornerback Patrick Surtain II expected to shadow Lamb, Pickens will likely draw Riley Moss or safety help that he can exploit. The Broncos have been vulnerable to deep passes as well. One successful play-action shot or go route is all it takes to cash this over.

Dak Prescott over 22.5 completions
Quarterback Dak Prescott is playing some of the best football of his career, and the Cowboys’ offense now flows through his accuracy and decision-making. He ranks near the top of the league in play-action rating and completion percentage on short and intermediate throws. With CeeDee Lamb, Pickens, and tight end Jake Ferguson all heavily involved, Prescott has the weapons and game plan to rack up completions.
Denver’s defense is elite but invites volume. Their pressure forces quick reads, which plays right into Prescott’s strength. Add in Dallas’ 44% third-down conversion rate — seventh-best in the NFL — and it’s easy to see why Prescott should stay busy from start to finish. Even against a strong pass rush, 25 to 30 completions feels like a fair projection.
Tip: Bet Dak Prescott over 22.5 completions
- Prescott is playing great
-
Great WR options
