Cowboys vs Commanders TD scorer best bet: Terry McLaurin (+210)
Odds available at BetMGM at time of publishing.
It’s been nothing short of a disaster of a season for Terry McLaurin and the Commanders. Kudos to McLaurin, though, as he looks to finish his 7th season strong. Last Saturday against the Eagles, McLaurin played 83% of the offensive snaps – His most since Week 2. Granted, he has played in just 8 games this season, but he’s one of the top receivers in the game at full strength.
The hurdle here is the quarterback play for Washington. Marcus Mariota has yet to practice this week, so we’re looking at Josh Johnson under center on Christmas. But the Cowboys likely play from behind in this game and should be looking McLaurin’s way a ton with Zach Ertz out for the season.

Cowboys vs Commanders TD scorer best bet: KaVontae Turpin (+320)
Line available at DraftKings Sportsbook at time of publishing.
We have to get creative for our next TD scorer best bet in Cowboys-Commanders. 5 players have shorter odds than 2/1 with a total of 50.5 points. Both defenses are putrid, while the Cowboys offense is loaded. So, we’re going to avoid Janvonte Williams, CeeDee Lamb, and George Pickens, and target KaVontae Turpin, who the Cowboys continue to use in different ways. His 4 targets last week were his highest since Week 7, while also getting 2 touches in the backfield.
