Dallas Cowboys vs Detroit Lions best bets, odds for Week 7 matchup
By fansided
Cowboys -7.0. 1:00 PM ET. Sunday, Oct 23. 4-2. 123. 1-4. 50. CBS
Week 7 is here and the Dallas Cowboys are hosting the Detroit Lions in what should be an easy victory for the home team. Although the Lions had a bye week in Week 6, both teams are coming off of pretty brutal losses and looking for revenge. The Cowboys lost their biggest rivalry game 26-17 against the Eagles and the Lions failed to score against the Patriots in a 29-0 shutout.
Not only do the Lions have one of the worst defenses in the league, but they are also pretty abysmal on the road. They are 0-6 in their last six road games.
Things don’t look much better for Detroit against Dallas or the NFC East. They are 2-4 in their last six games against that division and the Cowboys lead the all-time series by a record of 17-12, winning their last four straight against the NFC North team.
These two teams haven’t faced each other since 2019, but we are hoping something similar happens in 2022. The Cowboys are expecting to have Dak Prescott back and the last time these two teams met up, the QB1 had an impressive 444 throwing yards and three touchdowns.
On paper and in the odds, this one highly favors America’s Team. Let’s take a look at the best bets, odds, spread, moneyline, how to watch, injury report, schedule, and more for this Week 7 game.
Best Dallas Cowboys bets for Week 7 vs. the Lions
**All numbers are from BetMGM as of Sunday morning. Please check BetMGM as numbers can change until game time**
1. Dallas Cowboys -7.5 (+105)
The lowest line you can get to with plus odds. But if you think the Cowboys are going to put the clamps on the downtrodden Lions, why wouldn’t you take it?
2. Dak Prescott Under 259.5 Passing Yards (-115)
Dak will be welcomed back with a soft landing against the Lions, but it would still be unreasonable to expect him to throw for more than 260 yards — especially since he could get pulled early when the game gets out of hand.
3. Rushing Attempts: Ezekiel Elliott, Over 15.5 (-110)
The Lions have the league’s worst rush defense by yardage per game, and the Cowboys know it. Pound, pound, pound all rushing props.
