🔥 Cowboys vs. Raiders player props
Neither of these teams have exactly majored in defense through the first 10 weeks of the season, and our NFL expert Phil Wood has his eyes on two skill-position stars to get theirs tonight while fading a fellow superstar in a sneaky tough matchup.
Wood is all over the yardage props for Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty and Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens, both in the mid-60s, but he's betting against star tight end Brock Bowers as part of his favorite Cowboys vs. Raiders player props.
Our NFL expert Dustin Saracini is also breaking down the player prop market in even greater detail ahead of this MNF matchup, as he offers his best Ashton Jeanty player props for Las Vegas' star back along with his best CeeDee Lamb player props.

💪 Cowboys vs. Raiders anytime TD pick
Another painfully low-scoring prime-time matchup last night - one that only featured two touchdowns in total - left us wanting for more with our anytime TD picks. Yet our NFL expert Esten McLaren is going back to the well with three wide receivers who can all make a compelling case as potential touchdown scorers tonight.
McLaren's lone five-star bet is on Lamb - who is also featured in our Cowboys vs. Raiders AI picks - while also taking a shot on Raiders receiver Tyler Lockett and unheralded Cowboys pass-catcher Ryan Flournoy with his anytime touchdown scorer predictions for Monday Night Football.
💵 Monday Night Football anytime TD picks
- CeeDee Lamb TD pick: To score anytime TD (+115) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
- Tyler Lockett TD pick: To score anytime TD (+390) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
- Ryan Flournoy TD pick: To score anytime TD (+600) ⭐⭐⭐
🥇 Cowboys vs. Raiders first TD pick
Our NFL expert Sean Tomlinson is back on the first touchdown scorer beat ahead of Monday Night Football, and he's pushing his chips to the middle of the table with three bets at +1000 odds or longer for this prime-time matchup in Las Vegas.
Tomlinson's strongest pick tonight is Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker, who should be a beneficiary of Jakobi Meyers' continued absence against a vulnerable Dallas secondary, but he's also backing two other long shots (including Cowboys QB Dak Prescott) with his first touchdown scorer predictions for Monday Night Football.
💵 Monday Night Football first TD picks
- Tre Tucker TD pick: To score first TD (+1400) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
