3 minCleveland Browns vs. Dallas Cowboys Same-Game Parlay Pick: Tail This +1214 Same-Game Parlay
Week 1 in the NFL is finally here and one of the best matchups on the slate comes to us in Cleveland as the Browns host the Cowboys. So, we need a Browns vs. Cowboys same-game parlay.
This is a matchup between two teams with Super Bowl aspirations. The Cowboys are looking to get over the hump with Dak Prescott while the Browns need to get things rolling if their Deshaun Watson trade is going to work out.
We weren't sure if we'd see CeeDee Lamb in this one due to a contract dispute but the wideout reached a deal with the team last week and is officially good to go for the season opener.
I have a four-leg same-game parlay for this one that I love that comes in at +1214 odds. So, before you get your Week 1 NFL Picks in, make sure you tail this one to kick the season off right.
Cleveland Browns vs. Dallas Cowboys Same-Game Parlay
Leg 1: Cleveland Browns -2.5
I love the Browns in this spot in Week 1. The Cowboys will be relying on a ground game that's led by a 500-year old Zeke Elliott and undrafted FA Rico Dowdle. Dak and co. will likely move it through the air just fine, but that Browns pass rush, led by Myles Garrett, is going to make things difficult. Add CeeDee Lamb missing the entire training camp and not having any time to shake the rust off and I think a field-goal win by the Browns is a likely scenario here.
Leg 2: CeeDee Lamb anytime TD
I do think CeeDee Lamb will take some time to get going for Dallas this season, but someone has to find the endzone for the Cowboys Lamb is a great bet to be the guy. Last season, LAmb finished with 1,749 receiving yards and 12 TDs. He's a top-five wide receiver in the NFL and he was targetted 181 times just a season ago. He and Dak may take a little bit to get on the same page, but the sheer volume of targets makes this play valuable and a good spot for our parlay.
Leg 3: Amari Cooper over 57.5 receiving yards
Amari Cooper just goes about his business, doesn't say much and continues to be one of the best WRs in the NFL. That's why I'm questioning his total for receiving yards being so low. In 15 games played, Cooper went over this number nine times a season ago. One of the best route runners we have in the game, Cooper should be able to have a field day against a Cowboys secondary that love to jump routes and take chances.
Leg 4: Jerome Ford over 49.5 rushing yards
Few NFL teams still rely on the run like the Cleveland Browns. A year ago, the Browns ranked fourth in the NFL with 30.47 rush attempts per game. Most of those rushes went to Nick Chubb, but with Chubb out it's Ford that steps into his role. Ford will get plenty of opportunities on Sunday against a Dallas defense that allowed 4.2 yards per carry in 2023, but that was with Jonathan Hankins in the middle of the DL. Ford getting to 50 yards shouldn't be an issue.
