Cowboys vs. Saints NFL Betting Picks + Odds Shopping

Finding the most profitable NFL betting picks has never been easier. The newly updated OddsShopper is like the Amazon of sports betting. Simply filter, sort the page and find the NFL best bets within seconds.

Ezekiel Elliott Over 45.5 Yards Rushing (-115, Caesars)

As seen on OddsShopper, sorting the player props for this game by the expected win percentage brings this prop to the very top. The tool gives the over on this Ezekiel Elliott rushing prop a 77% chance to hit and an expected ROI of 45%. The tool also projects Elliott for 65.7 yards rushing. This certainly is a tough matchup for Elliott, as the Saints are the top run defense in the league. That rushing prop is absurdly low for a play of Elliott’s caliber, and he has topped 45.5 yards rushing in three of their past four road games.

Taysom Hill Over 208.5 Yards Passing (-115, SugarHouse)

Taysom Hill is expected to start at quarterback after practicing as the starter for the Saints all week long. Hill has four true starts where he was actually the Saints’ lead quarterback for that game. He passed for at least 232 yards in three of those. The fourth was the Broncos game where Denver did not have a quarterback. In other words, Hill is not going to solely run the football. They will run to set up the pass, which has worked in the past for him. OddsShopper projects Hill for 228.4 yards passing tonight, giving this prop a 71% chance to hit the over and a 33% ROI.

CeeDee Lamb Over 4.5 Receptions (-145, SugarHouse)

The Cowboys get healthier in their receiving corps tonight, with both CeeDee Lamb and Amari Cooper expected to return to the lineup. The fact that Cooper is also expected to return especially helps Lamb, as Cooper could draw much of the top-tier attention on the outside while Lamb works the middle of the field, soaking up targets. Lamb has averaged 6.25 receptions over the past four games where Cooper played at least 60% of the snaps. OddsShopper gives this over a 60% chance to hit, projecting him for 5.2 receptions.
