The Arizona Cardinals have lost 3 games in a row, while the Dallas Cowboys have won 4 games in a row. With a multitude of potential playoff scenarios on the line, the meeting between these teams in Dallas is a big one. You can check out our full preview for Arizona Cardinals vs Dallas Cowboys, but first we have laid out our favorite same game parlay for this intriguing Week 17 showdown:
Under 51.5 (-106)
Kyler Murray anytime TD scorer (+200)
Parlay odds: +584
Under 51.5 (-106)
During Arizona’s 3-game losing streak, the problem has been the offense. This unit has not looked the same since DeAndre Hopkins went down with an injury in Week 14. Kyler Murray has just 2 touchdown passes in his last 3 games, and he may have some trouble getting going in this one. Dallas is the the No. 1 defense in terms of DVOA this season, and Micah Parsons and Trevon Diggs are having tremendous campaigns. It may be tough sledding for the Arizona offense at times in this matchup. While the offense has struggled, Arizona’s defense has not been terrible. The Cards are allowing 23.4 points per game and have been solid against the pass. The total for this game currently sits at 51.5, and 9 of Arizona’s last 11 games have stayed under that total. Additionally, 7 of Dallas’ last 9 games have stayed under 51.5.
Kyler Murray anytime TD scorer (+200)
Murray has 5 rushing touchdowns on the season, and I like his chances at finding the endzone in this contest. The Arizona passing game has not been clicking without Hopkins in the mix, and as of this publishing a number of other offensive weapons are still listed as questionable. That means Murray could be down even more receiving options, leading him to potentially utilize his legs even more. Dallas has a strong defensive front, but Murray’s elite scrambling ability may be able to neutralize that threat. It’s also worth pointing out that Murray ran for a touchdown as a part of a big day the last time he played at AT&T Stadium.
