A healthy serving of points is on the board with Monday night’s game coming in with a 54.5 O/U. Here’s a complete look at plays, strategy, and last week’s successful lineups.

DK Lines – ARI @ DAL

Spread: DAL -3
Total: 54.5
Team Totals: DAL 28.5, ARI 25.5

The line has held steady around a Brandon Aubrey kick with movement from DAL -2.5 to -3 since Halloween. The Cowboys are receiving 73% of the bets and 74% of the handle. The O/U is a jaw-dropping 54.5…and 84% of the money is on the over as the public assumes defenses are taking the night off. The Cowboys are 3-0 to the Over at home on the year.

Main takeaway from the social books: One, they love DAL to cover, and two, Novig loves the over. On ProphetX, bettors are avoiding ARI, leaving DAL -3 with roughly $23k in liquidity. The O/U is split evenly with no lean in either direction. Novig follows suit in terms of spread and ML, but there is $10k+ in liquidity to the under 53.5, meaning most bettors pushed their chips in on the over.

Dak Prescott $15,600 CPT | $10,400 FLEX
When your defense is bad, sometimes you gotta slang it to stay in games. That’s what Dak does and now welcomes the Cardinals’ 27th-ranked sack defense, bringing down the QB on only 4% of attempts. Only one other QB that started all games this year gets sacked less than Prescott (Bo Nix). Dak is excellent in that department, getting sacked on only 3% of plays. That dynamic sets up as a matchup where he will be able to throw as the Cardinals bleed out receiving yards, allowing 240 per game on average. With CeeDee back and George Pickens no longer eating crazy pill burritos, there is no reason to think he won’t cook at home in the dome.
