Best Jalen Hurts Prop Bets: Can Hurts Take Advantage of Struggling Cowboys

  • Jalen Hurts has scored six rushing touchdowns over the last three weeks.

  • The Dallas defense has allowed multiple touchdown passes from opposing quarterbacks in three of their last four games.

  • The Cowboys are giving up 266 passing yards per game during their current three-game losing streak.

Even if the Week 10 game between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Dallas Cowboys isn’t likely to decide the NFC East, it’s still a game to circle this week. Naturally, Philadelphia quarterback Jalen Hurts is a player to watch closely. He’s led the Eagles to four straight wins, in part because the Eagles have scored at least 20 points in all four of those games. That makes Hurts an interesting target for prop bets in Week 10.

For prop picks involving Hurts or any other player, consider going to bet365 Sportsbook. There is always a large collection of prop bets for every NFL game, including this week’s NFC East rivalry game between the Eagles and Cowboys. At bet365, new customers will also find that they have a choice between getting a safety net of up to $1,000 on their first bet or receiving $150 in bonus bets when they make a bet of $5 or more on their first wager.

Since this is an NFC East rivalry game, now is a good time to check out the current NFC East odds to see where the Eagles and Cowboys stack up in relation to the Commanders and Giants. Meanwhile, Hurts appears to at least be in the conversation for MVP honors, even if he remains a sleeper. Before heading into Sunday's Week 10, take a look at where he stands in the NFL MVP race.

Best Jalen Hurts Prop Bets

Jalen Hurts Anytime Touchdown (+120) at bet365 Sportsbook 

Hurts is one of the few quarterbacks who has excellent value scoring a touchdown. Everybody knows how much the Eagles love to use him on quarterback sneaks at the goal line and in short-yardage situations. Hurts can also improvise with his legs and score rushing touchdowns in that manner. As a result, he’s already scored eight rushing touchdowns this season, six of which have come in the last three weeks.

Obviously, a bet like this is contingent largely on the Eagles getting the ball inside the two-yard line at some point. They can always score touchdowns in any way. However, the Philadelphia offense has started to click in recent weeks, scoring at least 28 points in three straight games. It’s not a surprise that six of Hurts’ eight rushing touchdowns have come during that stretch. As long as things continue to go well for the Eagles, they should have goal-line opportunities. When those opportunities come around, they don’t hesitate to use Hurts to sneak it in, making him an excellent anytime touchdown candidate this week.

Jalen Hurts Over 1.5 Passing Touchdowns (+195) at bet365 Sportsbook 

There is a huge gap between the value of over 1.5 passing touchdowns and under 1.5 passing touchdowns from Hurts this week. Obviously, if Hurts is scoring touchdowns with his legs, it takes away opportunities for him to pass for touchdowns. Also, Hurts has only thrown multiple touchdown passes three times in eight games this season. However, two of those games have come in the last four weeks with the Philadelphia offense getting hot and the team’s star wide receivers getting healthy.

The Dallas defense also needs to be taken into account with this bet. The Cowboys have lost three in a row, giving up an average of 34.7 points per game during that span. Also, in three of their last four games, the Cowboys have allowed multiple touchdown passes. In fact, both Jared Goff and Kirk Cousins threw three touchdown passes against Dallas. Even Justin Fields, who could be viewed as a poor-man’s version of Hurts, threw two touchdown passes against the Cowboys in a losing effort. Based on that recent track record from the Dallas defense, Hurts is set up for multiple touchdown passes this week.

Jalen Hurts Over 197.5 Passing Yards (-110) at bet365 Sportsbook 

The bar for Hurts’ passing yards is surprisingly low. To be fair, he’s fallen well short of 200 passing yards in three of eight games this season. However, two of those games were among Philadelphia’s losses before the Eagles got their offense moving in the right direction. The other game was a one-sided blowout of the Giants. With the way the Philadelphia offense has performed in recent weeks and the team’s top receivers healthy, Hurts should be close to his average of 222 passing yards per game.

Keep in mind that the Cowboys have allowed well over 200 passing yards in each game of their three-game losing streak. In fact, the Cowboys are allowing 266 passing yards per game during that stretch. Granted, in three of their eight games, Dallas has limited the opposing quarterback to under 200 passing yards. However, two of those occasions were games the Cowboys won. With the Eagles favored in this game, it’s unlikely that the Dallas defense will slow down Hurts enough to hold him below 200 passing yards.
