Cowboys-Titans ‘Thursday Night Football’ Week 17 Player Props to Target

Prescott is averaging 295.6 passing yards over his last three games and finds an enticing matchup against a Titans’ defense that has been torched by quarterbacks this season. Prescott has raised his level of play since Week 13, completing 71.8% of his passes as the Cowboys make their push for a top seed in the playoffs. The veteran finds an enticing matchup against a weak Tennessee pass defense that has allowed Jalen Hurts (380), Trevor Lawrence (368) and Justin Herbert (313) to throw for 300-plus yards over the last month. Respected money is investing that Prescott will exploit a Titans’ secondary that has allowed 11 quarterbacks to eclipse this projection 73.3% of the time this season (11 of 15 games).

Dak Prescott OVER 1.5 Touchdown Passes (-137)

Respected money has made Prescott a ‘double-pop’ investment by targeting his total touchdown passes market at 1.5 juiced to the over at -137 odds. The veteran signal-caller has thrown two-plus touchdowns in seven of his last eight games and he has posted solid production away from home in his limited road starts this season. Prescott has thrown for multiple touchdowns against the Packers (three), Vikings (two) and Jaguars (two) away from AT&T Stadium in 2022, so it makes sense to expect that trend to continue Thursday night against a Titans’ defense that has surrendered the second-most (26) passing touchdowns.

CeeDee Lamb OVER 69.5 Receiving Yards (-110)

Lamb ranks seventh among receivers in receptions (91) and fifth in touchdowns (eight) and finds a favorable matchup against a Titans’ defense that has allowed 19 touchdowns to wide receivers. Lamb has hauled in five-plus receptions in eight straight games, averaging 91 receiving yards per game and tallying six touchdowns in that stretch. Since Week 12, Tennessee has allowed Keenan Allen (86), Zay Jones (77), A.J. Brown (119), DeVonta Smith (102) and Tee Higgins (114) to surpass this projection. Look for the NFL’s fifth-most targeted (135) player this season to easily surpass this projection for the seventh time in his last nine games.

Ezekiel Elliott Anytime Touchdown (-110)

I am normally opposed to playing touchdown props at minsu-odds but I simply can not pass on this play. Ezekiel Elliott has been a scoring machine, posting at least one touchdown in eight consecutive games. Since Week 6, Zeke has found the end zone 10 times and could see the major bulk of the work as Tony Pollard is dealing with a thigh injury. If Pollard is ruled out, the juice on this prop will soar. Even if Pollard was able to play, I still expect Elliott to get the goal line work against a Titans’ defense that has allowed Samaje Perine, Mile Sanders, Austin Ekeler and Joshua Kelley all to score on the ground since Week 12.
