New York Giants vs Dallas Cowboys best touchdown scorer bet: Tony Pollard (-115)
This play focuses on a red-hot Dallas running game, against a Giants defense that should struggle to stop it. Tony Pollard leads the NFL in rush yards over expected and this Giants defense is grading out as a bottom-10 unit against the run. Pollard has 8 total touchdowns on the season, including 5 touchdowns over the last 3 weeks. He should be expected to receive a number of carries early and often in what is a pivotal game for this Cowboys team. Dallas is still in contention with Philadelphia for the top seed in the NFC, and has every incentive to take care of business at home. Look for a healthy dose of red zone touches from Dallas’ new lead running back in what should be a strong offensive showing from the Cowboys.
