NFL SGP picks

Same-game parlays represent one of the most popular ways to bet NFL Week 11 odds. For island games during the 2024 NFL season, TheLines.com will offer some possible NFL SGP picks that bettors can consider. We’ll look for SGP angles with some negative correlation to uncover longshots with a better chance of cashing than the odds imply. The idea is that while sportsbook SGP machines adjust odds for correlated parlays, the inverse is true for uncorrelated.

Here, we’ll examine SGP options for the Texans and Cowboys for MNF odds. You can also explore promo codes from the best sports betting sites.

Potential NFL SGP Picks For Texans At Cowboys

Cooper Rush Rides Again

Dallas will reportedly go with Cooper Rush again at QB despite a major flop last week against the Eagles. It’s not that Trey Lance was much better, but the Cowboys offense with Rush bordered on being completely non-functional.

Rush somehow managed just 45 yards passing on 24 dropbacks. The offense was horizontal to the extreme. Considering the game state, Rush’s aDOT (average depth of target) of 6.4 probably undersells the lack of aggression.

The market confidence in Rush is so low that most betting apps have limited props available for this game. There appears to be a built-in expectation that Rush’s leash is short enough to allow Lance to take over again at some point.

Rush has sometimes played at an acceptable level, but that was back in 2022. He’s now 31 and playing in a much worse ecosystem than the one with Dallas winning 12 games per year. It’s possible he isn’t at the level of a professional backup at this stage.

Will Collins Reawaken Texans’ Offense?

It seems like Nico Collins will return to play for the Texans this week. He logged a limited practice to begin the week, and an ESPN report said the team expects him to go.

Without Collins — and Stefon Diggs — this unit has devolved into a bit of a mess. After a solid early season in which they averaged 23.8 points per game, the Texans have yet to crack that number once in the past four contests.

Joe Mixon’s return has sometimes helped the rushing attack, but C.J. Stroud seems to have regressed a bit behind a mediocre offensive line with a scheme that isn’t doing him any favors.

Still, Collins has been so impactful that he could give this unit some juice again. Before going down injured, he had placed himself squarely in the discussion of Offensive Player of the Year. His 113.4 yards per game would lead the league if he had kept that up.

Predictions For NFL SGP Picks

I think some tail outcomes are in play here where the Texans demolish the Cowboys. Collins being back could get this offense back to the at least solid unit racing off to wins early in the season. And if the Dallas offense is non-functional without Dak Prescott, Houston might run away with this one, like the Eagles last week.

That puts a scenario in play where Houston wins big, the total goes over, but Dallas doesn’t clear their team total. That likely requires 30+ from the Texans, but it’s not an unreasonable ask, especially when they can probably move the ball while killing the clock against this pathetic run defense (32nd in rush defense EPA/play).

Especially considering the lack of available props, it’s hard to find much fodder for player-centric NFL SGP picks.

Regarding SGPs, we cannot emphasize enough the importance of shopping around. Our research for this season’s strategy sometimes found the same SGP at double the price vs. other betting apps.

These NFL SGP picks pay out best at DraftKings Sportsbook (+600).

  • Cowboys team total Under 16.5 (-102)
  • Game total over 42 (-108)

If you put these prices into a normal parlay calculator, you’d get a $28.14 payout on a $10 bet. Because of the inverse correlation, the SGP software offers more than double that. The software does not look at matchup research.

Good luck with your NFL SGP picks for the Cowboys vs. Texans.
