Denver Broncos at Dallas Cowboys Picks & Betting Predictions

The Broncos got a much-needed win on Sunday, defeating Washington to improve to 4-4. However, they traded away Von Miller the next day and that signals a new era in Denver. Up next are the Dallas Cowboys, who have won six straight games and should be getting Dak Prescott back under center.

This is a game in which the Cowboys should win, especially with it being at home. But will they have a bit of a letdown after an emotional win on Sunday Night Football?

To get you ready for this AFC-NFC matchup, here is everything you need to know from an NFL betting perspective going into Week 9.

Check out the latest Cowboys vs. Broncos odds ahead of the matchup in Week 9.

Broncos vs. Cowboys Key Matchups

Broncos WR Jerry Jeudy vs. Cowboys CB Trevon Diggs: Jeudy is back after missing some time with a high-ankle sprain. Now, he will face off against one of the league’s best cornerbacks in Diggs in an Alabama vs. Alabama battle.

Cowboys WR Amari Cooper vs. Broncos CB Patrick Surtain II: Another Alabama matchup, Cooper has been great this season despite dealing with multiple injuries. The rookie cornerback Surtain will certainly have his hands full.

Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott vs. Broncos LB Kenny Young: The Broncos have been decimated at linebacker and now have to face one of the league’s best rushing attacks.

Broncos vs. Cowboys Player Props

Broncos WR Jerry Jeudy, Over 54.5 Receiving Yards

Odds: -115 at DraftKings

Jeudy caught all four of his targets in Week 8 and isn’t listed on the injury report for the Broncos. He’ll be covered by Trevon Diggs, who has allowed a ton of yardage to opposing receivers this season.

Cowboys TE Dalton Schultz To Score A TD

Odds: +190 at DraftKings

Blake Jarwin is out in Week 9 and that means more snaps and targets for Schultz. He is already one of Dak Prescott’s favorite red zone weapons and is a good bet to get in the end zone again this week.

Broncos RB Javonte Williams, Under 61.5 Total Yards

Odds: -115 at DraftKings

Over the last five games, Williams is averaging less than eight carries per game. While he does get some work in the passing game, it’s hard to envision him going over 61.5 yards in this one given how much Melvin Gordon will be on the field.

Broncos vs. Cowboys Moneyline

The Cowboys are the far better team in this matchup and have the better quarterback. But they proved on Sunday Night Football that they are more than just a team led by Dak Prescott. They were able to beat the Vikings (on the road) with Cooper Rush.

Even if Prescott is 80 percent healthy, the Cowboys should be able to score 24 or more points. But the value just isn’t there as you would have to lay at least $430 to win $100 on most betting sites.

For that reason, pass on the moneyline in favor of the point spread despite a great chance the Cowboys get a win in this matchup.

Broncos vs. Cowboys Point Spread

Dallas is a perfect 7-0 against the spread this season, but they are huge favorites in this game. On most sites, the Cowboys are 10-point favorites and that is with some major uncertainty at quarterback and at offensive tackle. All-Pro left tackle Tyron Smith is unlikely to play on Sunday and that could be rough for Prescott if he returns to the lineup.

The Cowboys do have tackle depth, but Denver is one team that can rush the quarterback at a high rate. Dallas should still win, but take the Broncos +10 (-110) on BetMGM and look for Denver to keep the game close with their rushing attack.

Broncos vs. Cowboys Totals

The total for this game is set at 49.5 points, which feels high based off how much the Broncos have struggled on offense over the last month. The Broncos have scored more than 20 points just once in their last five games and have scored a combined 31 points in their last two outings. They are unlikely to score more than 20 points in this game, meaning the Cowboys will have to do a lot of the heavy lifting.

While they can certainly handle that workload, don’t be surprised if Dallas uses the run game to protect Prescott and their offensive line. Take the Under 49.5 (-110) on DraftKings and look for a 27-20 type of game in Dallas.
