Our best Cowboys vs Eagles SGP for Week 1
There's a lot to like about the Philadelphia Eagles coming into this season opener.
For starters, they didn't lose anything on the offensive side of the football, which means the Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley-led offense should once again be among the best in the league.
The Dallas Cowboys' defense is simply not good enough without Micah Parsons to slow them down.
If the Eagles are indeed playing with the lead, the Cowboys will have to abandon the run and rely on the arm of Dak Prescott.
Prescott, when healthy, is among the better QBs in the league in terms of production, so having him drop back Over 36.5 times is a no-brainer leg to add to this SGP.
He's also shown a propensity to throw bad interceptions, which is why we've added him to throw one year against a good, ball-hawking Eagles secondary.
If you're throwing it a bunch, one of them's bound to take a bad bounce, or just be a bad read on the quarterback's part.
