Taylor Heinicke Over 223.5 Yards Passing (-115, Caesars)

Taylor Heinicke has returned from COVID protocol and draws a moderate passing yardage prop on Sunday Night Football. Heinicke is averaging 225.5 passing yards per game through 12 games while projecting for 247 passing yards against the Cowboys, culminating for a 64% expected win rate and 19% return on investment for the over. The Cowboys remain notorious for interceptions this season yet have allowed 263.14 passing yards per game to opposing quarterbacks while ranking first overall in defensive pass DVOA per Football Outsiders. Heinicke hasn’t surpassed 223 passing yards since Week 10 against Tampa, though a sturdy projection in a matchup he’ll likely be inclined to throw lends confidence to the over on a low-hanging passing total.

Amari Cooper Over 51.5 Yards Receiving (-116, SugarHouse)

While he’s been quiet of late Amari Cooper garners an excellent matchup with an achievable receiving prop against Washington. Cooper is averaging 56.9 receiving yards and projects for 61.9 receiving yards on Sunday night, translating to an OddsShopper 64% expected win rate and 18% return on investment for the over. Washington remains suspect against the pass averaging 176 receiving yards allowed to opposing wide receiver corps. Cooper exceeded 52 yards in Week 8 with a 122-receiving yard performance against the Vikings yet notched 51 yards in two games since, last against Washington ranking 31st in defensive pass DVOA against the WR2. Washington is now thin at safety without Deshazor Everett and Landon Collins, making the deep passes look all the more likely on behalf of Dak Prescott and the over a solid play on Cooper.

Terry McLaurin Under 5.5 Receptions (-200, PointsBet)

Terry McLaurin was shut down in his last meeting with Dallas and casts stingy odds to the under on a heightened reception prop. McLaurin is averaging 4.5 catches and 7.9 targets per game while projecting for 4.99 catches on 8.6 targets against the Cowboys, extending to an OddsShopper 66% expected win rate and -2% return on investment for the under due to excess juice. Dallas has locked down the opposing WR1 role this season ranking first overall in defensive pass DVOA against the position. Being held to no receptions on three targets in their Week 14 meeting with Trevon Diggs continuing to wreak havoc in the secondary, the under on McLaurin’s catch total makes a fair addition to any Sunday night prop party parlay.
