Saints vs. Cowboys Player Props, Odds: CeeDee Gets Going in Big D
The adage "money can't buy you happiness" certainly doesn't apply to CeeDee Lamb or Dak Prescott.
The Dallas Cowboys' headline acts looked plenty happy after signing their monstrous contract extensions.
I expect those feel-good vibes will lead to highly productive outings at AT&T Stadium against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday afternoon (1 p.m. ET on FOX).
Our Saints vs. Cowboys prop bets bank on Jerry Jones' team extending its regular-season home dominance from last season into the new campaign.
While the Cowboys aren't among the five Super Bowl odds favorites, their confident display in Cleveland last week had the same therapeutic effect on fans as seeing their two offensive franchise players get paid.
Dallas is the favorite across our best NFL betting sites.

CeeDee Lamb Over 84.5 receiving yards (-115) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
What's the opposite of Lamb to the slaughter?
I expect to find out when Lamb hits his first Over of the season on Sunday. You can excuse his measly 61 receiving yards against the Cleveland Browns for various reasons.
First, he didn't go through a proper training camp or preseason.
Second, the Cowboys were so far ahead they barely needed to run an offensive play, let alone air it out to their most formidable deep threat.
It's time for Lamb to put his newfound money where his chops are.
He tallied at least 116 receiving yards in five of eight home games last season while averaging the same amount per game at AT&T Stadium.
Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore's status is uncertain due to a hamstring injury. Either way, the Saints will need to cover Lamb by committee.
And I don't think the committee is up to the task.
BetMGM offers the best price at 84.5. You can get 86.5 at bet365 (-110), but I feel slightly more risk averse. A $10 winning bet will pay an $8.70 profit as part of our NFL Week 2 predictions.
Best odds: -115 at BetMGM | Implied probability: 53.49%
Dak Prescott Over 253.5 passing yards (-110) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Prescott got paid, and he's feeling mighty fine.
He returns to his favorite playing surface and environment, where he produced at least 255 passing yards in each of the eight home games last season.
Prescott averaged 309 passing yards per contest at AT&T Stadium last campaign. And while defenses are getting noticeably better at preventing the deep ball, Prescott lines up against the 26th-ranked pass rush from Week 1, according to PFF.
The Saints' defensive line was one of three units not to register a sack during the opening week. That should give Prescott time to dissect and deliver.
bet365 offers the best price for this prop (-110) on one of the NFL MVP odds long shots, and a winning $10 bet will profit $9.09.
Best odds: -110 at bet365 | Implied probability: 52.38%
Chris Olave Over 4.5 receptions (-115) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
The Saints' offense didn't need Chris Olave against the lowly Carolina Panthers in Week 1. He registered only two receptions for 11 yards. But I expect his production to increase substantially against the Cowboys.
The conditions at AT&T Stadium are ripe for a quintessential Olave outbreak. He tallied at least five receptions in 10 of 16 outings last season and is playing against a somewhat depleted Cowboys secondary.
Without DaRon Bland and with uncertainty about C.J. Goodwin's status, Olave should snag at least five receptions in Big D.
bet365 again offers the best price, marginally ahead of FanDuel (-118), Caesars (-119), DraftKings and BetMGM (-120).
A winning $10 bet will yield a $8.70 profit.
Best odds: -115 via bet365 | Implied probability: 53.49%
