Top 4 Prop Bets for Packers–Cowboys on Sunday Night

NFL Betting Tips · - ·

Publish Date: 09/27/2025
Fact checked by: Mike Goodpaster

Sunday Night Football heads to AT&T Stadium with the Packers favored by a touchdown and public money heavy on Green Bay. Dallas limps in with key injuries—CeeDee Lamb sidelined by a high-ankle sprain, a thin secondary, and a battered offensive line. Green Bay is coming off a loss, but profiles for a bounce-back against a Cowboys defense giving up 288 passing yards per game and struggling to keep opponents out of explosive plays. Here are four sharp player prop targets for this matchup.

Josh Jacobs – Over 2.5 Receptions

Green Bay should lean on Jacobs as a quick-release option against Dallas’ heavy zone coverage. The Cowboys sit at the top of the league in zone usage, a look that naturally frees running backs for underneath catches. Jacobs has been active in the passing game early in the year, with steady targets and strong yards-after-catch numbers. With Jordan Love likely to face pressure from a thin but blitz-happy Dallas front, designed screens and checkdowns give Jacobs multiple chances to clear three grabs. This line is modest for a back with his passing-game role.

Matthew Golden – Longest Catch Over 22.5 Yards

Golden is the Packers’ primary downfield weapon. Over the last two weeks, he leads the team in targets traveling 20 or more air yards and has already posted catches of 34 and 33 yards. Dallas has surrendered six completions of 35+ yards in three games, giving up the NFL’s second-most yards per completion (13.2). Indoors at AT&T Stadium, with quarterback Jordan Love averaging 9.4 air yards per attempt, one deep strike to Golden can cash this prop.

George Pickens – Over 4.5 Receptions

Green Bay’s own pass defense ranks seventh in yardage allowed, but volume favors Pickens. Quarterback Dak Prescott is averaging 266.7 passing yards per game and has exceeded 241.5 in two of three outings. With Lamb out and the Cowboys likely trailing, expect Pickens to command a heavy share of intermediate and sideline routes. He has topped 4.5 catches in two of three games and should be peppered with targets again, especially if Dallas leans on quick timing throws to offset the Packers’ rush.

Micah Parsons – To Record a Sack (-144)

Parsons returns to Dallas as a showman ready to perform. He is winning on 32.7% of pass-rush snaps, eighth best in the league, and has at least half a sack in two of three games despite a limited snap rate. Dallas offensive line, graded as the league’s second-worst in pass protection according to Pro Football Focus, is now facing a fully unleashed Parsons likely to return to his usual 80% snap share. Against former teammate Prescott, one sack is the expectation, not the outlier.

Conclusion

Dallas is undermanned while Green Bay’s passing game is primed to exploit deep and underneath zones. Jacobs’ reception total, Golden’s long-catch potential, Pickens’ target share, and Parsons’ relentless rush all align with a Packers-dominated script. These four props fit the projected flow of a game where Green Bay controls tempo and Dallas is forced to chase.
