The Dallas Cowboys cling to slim playoff hopes when they host the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday Night Football in Week 15 action.

My Vikings vs. Cowboys props and NFL picks believe that just because Dallas is the more desperate team, that doesn't mean Minnesota will roll over for Dak Prescott.

Dak Prescott longest completion Under 37.5 yards (-118)

Dak Prescott has been streaky in the longest pass market. He fell below this line in four straight to open the season, then hit the Over in three straight.

He's 3-3 O/U since then, with three straight Unders followed by three consecutive Overs. I do not see Prescott getting a fourth straight Over vs. this vicious Minnesota Vikings stop unit.

Minnesota enters this one ranked tops in the NFL in fewest 20+ yard passing plays allowed. It's partly because they generate the third-highest pressure rate on opposing passers.

Prescott will be under duress with OL Tyler Guyton possibly out, along with TE Jake Ferguson and WR CeeDee Lamb also nursing injuries. 

Jordan Mason Over 38.5 rushing yards (-114)

Jordan Mason has shared the Vikings backfield pretty much equally with Aaron Jones, but the latter is questionable for Week 15 with a shoulder injury. Even if Jones suits up, I think Mason will have a busier and more productive day than the oddsmakers expect.

The Cowboys have coughed up 4.7 yards per rush this season, sixth-worst in the NFL. This unit is also tied for 23rd with nine rushes of more than 20 yards allowed.

Mason has averaged no less than 5.3 yards per carry across the last five weeks, and has cleared this line in four straight games as well as nine of 13 times in 2025.

Javonte Williams anytime TD (-130)

Another busy day on the ground for Javonte Williams plays right into my earlier Prescott prop.

I think the Cowboys will lean hard on Williams to keep Prescott from getting too banged up. They've already done plenty of that this year, as Williams has amassed the sixth-most carries in the NFL.

The workhorse running back has 42 red-zone totes for Dallas, good for a 66.7% share of the Cowboys' rushes inside the 20-yard line. That mark is fourth-highest in football.

Prior to last week's shutout of Washington, the Vikings allowed six rushing touchdowns over their previous five games.
