Sunday Night Football Prop Bets Week 16: Tampa Bay Looks to Hold NFC South Lead

Contributors

  • The Buccaneers are currently -390 to win the NFC South 

  • Dallas is 6-8 in third place in the NFC East

  • Tampa Bay is a moderate favorite over the Cowboys on the road

The Cowboys have quietly won three of their last four games but aren’t playing for anything in 2024. On the other hand, the Buccaneers have a real shot at winning the division and making a run in the playoffs. 

The Falcons are creeping up on the Buccaneers in second place in the division, and they just made a quarterback change. Tampa Bay must finish out the season strong to capture the NFC South.

Baker Mayfield is playing great football and wide receiver Mike Evans still has much to play for in 2024. Evans is 251 yards short of having his 11th straight 1,000-yard receiving year.

We have three anytime touchdown prop bets that we are targeting for this matchup on FanDuel Sportsbook. New customers at FanDuel Sportsbook can get $150 in bonus bets if their first $5 wager wins on the app. This is a great way to rack up bonuses for the upcoming NFL and college football playoffs.

Best SNF Prop Bets Week 16 Buccaneers and Cowboys

Mike Evans Anytime Touchdown (-115) at FanDuel 

Evans still has a lot to play for and is one of the best receivers in football. He has 52 receptions and nine touchdowns this season. His nine touchdowns are the fourth most among receivers, and he missed a few games due to injury. 

Evans has three multi-touchdown games and scored in six out of the eleven games he has played. 

He is coming off a massive performance against the Chargers, having nine receptions for 159 yards with two touchdowns. Dallas is 21st in pass defense in 2024, and they now have to guard one of the best receivers in the NFL.

We expect Evans to continue building off his great Week 15 performance.

Rico Dowdle Anytime Touchdown (-140) at FanDuel

There hasn’t been much excitement regarding the Cowboys offense in 2024, but Dowdle is the best option when betting touchdown bets. He has 880 rushing yards and is coming off a 149-yard performance against Carolina one week ago. 

Dowdle has slowly taken over the lead-back role in this offense, and he has done a great job. He is averaging five yards a carry and contributes a ton to the passing game. 

Dowdle has 33 receptions out of the backfield to go with three touchdowns. Anytime you have a running back who plays a massive role in all aspects of the offense, it’s a good idea to take their anytime touchdown wagers. 

The Cowboys have been utilizing the run game a lot lately, with Cooper Rush taking over as quarterback. Look for them to lean on Dowdle, as we expect him to find success for this prime time matchup.

CeeDee Lamb Anytime Touchdown (+140) at FanDuel 

Lamb has been a top-five receiver in football throughout his career, and he is still finding the end zone with a backup quarterback. He has scored in the last two games and has combined for 209 receiving yards. 

Lamb has 94 receptions for 1,089 yards during the season, with six touchdowns. He has the third most receiving yards in the NFL with a back-up quarterback, which speaks to his target volume. 

Lamb has been targeted 20 times over the last two games, so the Cowboys are finding success through the air. 

We expect Dallas to be trailing throughout this game which will increase opportunities for Lamb in the passing game. Look for Lamb to continue his dominance into Week 16 and score a touchdown to cash this prop.
