Dallas Goedert Anytime Touchdown Scorer (+145)

The Philadelphia Eagles are getting a big-time player back on Sunday night in tight end Dallas Goedert, and it honestly couldn’t come at a better time. Goedert has been a killer to the Cowboys ever since he got drafted in 2018. Heck, even on draft night, it was a killer move when the Philadelphia Eagles jumped in front of the Cowboys to take Goedert. Since that moment, Goedert has had the Cowboys’ number.

In four games against the Cowboys, Goedert has gone for 17 catches, 204 yards, and 3 touchdowns. He’s been a matchup nightmare against the divisional rival, and expect it to continue tonight.

This season, the Cowboys have given up five touchdowns (four receiving, one rushing) to tight ends in seven games, and have not found an answer to opposing teams’ tight ends. They might not have an answer tonight for #88.

I know it’s hard to judge how exactly Goedert will be after missing the last four games due to injury. However, his impact will be significant when it comes down to red zone situations. The Philadelphia Eagles have struggled the last few weeks when they have been in the red zone, leading to missed opportunities for touchdowns. Goedert being available for this game will be huge in finishing off drives with touchdowns instead of field goals.

Look for Dallas Goedert to be a big presence in the red zone on Sunday night for the Philadelphia Eagles, and cash in on great value while you can.
