Although this isn’t the most glorious matchup on paper for Thursday Night Football, it is a rivalry showdown in the NFC East. And whether you have a dog in the fight or not, NFC East football is almost always worth watching. This is an especially crucial contest, too, because both the Dallas Cowboys and the New York Giants head into Week 4 with 1-2 records. If it’s not yet desperation time, it’s close. To add some extra spice to this matchup, I’ve pieced together my Cowboys vs Giants Same Game Parlay picks for the festivities, which get underway at 8:15 pm ET on Amazon Prime Video. Also, be sure to check out our NFL picks on the side and total for EVERY Week 4 matchup.
Over 45.5 (-105)
Wan’Dale Robinson to record 50+ receiving yards (+200)
Wan’Dale Robinson to score a touchdown (+390)
Cowboys vs Giants Same Game Parlay odds: +1043
Part of the value in a Same Game Parlay, of course, is that all of its components can be correlated if you so choose. That is the entire plan here, as New York wide receiver Wan’Dale Robinson going off would obviously work well with Over 45.5 cashing. Let’s break down each of the 3 legs.
Over 45.5 (-105)
Two consecutive games represent a large enough sample size to lose faith in the Dallas defense. DC Mike Zimmer’s unit looks completely lost and it has spilled over into the locker room, complete with finger-pointing – albeit of the indirect variety. The Cowboys rank dead last league-wide in every rushing-defense category that matters and they allow 29.7 ppg (3rd-worst in the NFL). As for the Giants’ defense, it looked much improved in Week 3 – but that was against Deshaun Watson and an inept Cleveland Browns entourage. It’s unlikely that the G-Men will contain a Dallas offense that is #1 in the NFL in pass attempts per game (41). Dak Prescott certainly isn’t afraid to sling it around and he has 2 great weapons at his disposal in the form of CeeDee Lamb and Jake Ferguson. Expect points aplenty.

Wan’Dale Robinson to record 50+ receiving yards (+200)
There is no secret as to how Dallas plans to go about attacking this contest from a defensive standpoint. It is going to stack the box and make New York move the ball through the air behind much-maligned quarterback Daniel Jones. And to whom will the Cowboys force Jones to target? Anyone but Malik Nabers! The Cowboys’ defense has looked poor so far this season, so it can’t stop everyone – but it will do everything in its power to stop Nabers. That means Wan’Dale Robinson could be in line for a huge performance. The 2022 second-round draft pick out of Kentucky is second on the team in receptions (15), second in targets (27) and second in receiving yards (123). He is coming off his best game of the season – 7 catches on 8 targets for 61 yards against Cleveland.

Wan’Dale Robinson to score a touchdown (+390)
Robinson has a great chance to find the endzone, too. He has already scored once this year (Week 2 against the Washington Commanders) and can certainly victimize another NFC East opponent in Dallas. The Cowboys’ pass defense is in the middle of the pack in terms of yards and touchdowns allowed, so it is far from special. For all the criticism Jones gets, he has tossed 4 touchdown passes and zero interceptions over the past 2 outings. At +390, Robinson has stellar value to deliver a TD.
