A four-game winning streak for the Cowboys was ended with a 26-17 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday night, as the Cowboys fell to 3-1 under Cooper Rush. Dallas is back at AT&T, where they are just 4-5 since last November. In their last 8 home games versus the Lions, however, the Cowboys are 6-2 and will look to improve that record in this spot.
Detroit's season-opening victory came on September 18; since then, they are winless, losing to New England two weeks ago 0-29. Now, they come in off of their bye week and are desperate for improvement from their defense, who ranks dead last in the NFL in yards allowed (428.6) and points allowed (34).
Let's take a look at a few players I think can contribute to both teams' success.
Dallas Cowboys vs. Detroit Lions Best Anytime TD Picks
Anytime Touchdown Scorer - De’Andre Swift (+100)
Though he is still questionable with a shoulder injury if Swift goes in this one, I like him to find the end zone. In the three games he’s seen the field to this point, Swift had scored in two of them and really appeared to have turned a corner this season as a premier scoring threat in the league.
The Lion’s overall production had helped that along greatly, as they now enter this game as the #2 offense in the league in total yards (412 per game) and #3 in points scored (28 per game). A threat both in the backfield and in the flat, I like for Swift to pick up his third touchdown here at home.
Anytime Touchdown Scorer - Ezekiel Elliot (-120)
Currently ranked dead last in the league in rushing yards allowed at a staggering 167.6 yards per game, this Lions front seven is downright ugly. They now head to Dallas to take on a rushing attack led by Ezekiel Elliott, who has returned from injury to look sharp so far this season.
Averaging 64 yards per game to this point, Elliott has failed to get the touches in the receiving game, which I think we see develop as the season goes on. I like him to pick up his third touchdown of the season this week at home against a porous Lions defense now allowing a league-worst 34 points per game.
Anytime Touchdown Scorer - CeeDee Lamb (+160)
While we’ve already touchdown how bad the Lions’ front seven has been, their secondary hasn’t been much better. Coming into this one allowing 261 yards per game to rank 26th in the league, the Lions have continued to be gashed by opposing team’s WR1s.
In steps a stud in Lamb, who catching balls one more week from Cooper Rush, I expect to find the end zone for the third time this season.
