Bucky Irving Over 83.5 Rushing + Receiving Yards

The Buccaneers have been an excellent passing team this season, something that's only grown to be more true in recent weeks. That's kept a lot of attention away from what they've done on the ground, however, and I think we've got a way in here with Bucky Irving.

The rookie has been enjoying a relatively steady dose of playing time in the last five games, and other than a brief day at the office against the Las Vegas Raiders which was cut short due to injury, he's made the most of his snaps.

Irving has gone for at least 73 or more yards on the ground in the four contests surrounding his abbreviated evening against Las Vegas, and more importantly has caught two or more passes in each.

• His results have been volatile in the passing game, but the Cowboys have allowed the eighth-most receiving yards per game to opposing running backs which should allow us to bet on this combo prop.

The bulk of the yards should come on the ground, however, where Irving has amassed an impressive 5.6 yards per tote. Dallas is dead last in EPA per rush over the last five weeks and should succumb to a barrage of chunk plays from Irving -- particularly if this one gets out of hand.

Rico Dowdle Over 90.5 Rushing + Receiving Yards

Like the Cowboys, the Buccaneers have also been awfully generous to pass-catching backs this season. While it's been hard to find a weakness for this unit, you'd certainly have to say that this would be one on account of the fact that it's allowed the fifth-most receiving yards to the running back position on a hefty 6.3 targets, which ranks fifth-highest.

Rico Dowdle has really quieted down in the passing game, but with how incredible this Tampa Bay secondary has been you'd have to think that a mediocre quarterback such as Cooper Rush would take the easy completions just beyond the line of scrimmage that he's afforded.

• If he doesn't do much in the passing game, however, I still have plenty of faith that Dowdle can run the ball well here coming off three straight games of 112 yards or more.

The Buccaneers may sit atop the league in EPA against both the run and the pass over the last five weeks, but they're a much more reasonable 12th in Success Rate allowed on the ground which should mean Dowdle can chip away at this total.

Chase McLaughlin Over 1.5 Field Goals Made

Finally, I want to get a little silly here and mix in a kicking prop -- something that worked wonders for us in Saturday's Texans vs Chiefs game.

Chase McLaughlin has been awfully active of late for the Buccaneers with four or more field goals in two of his last three contests, and that's come as the result of Tampa Bay converting just 58.8% of its red zone trips into six points since Week 11.

While the Cowboys have the worst red zone defense in the league this season, they've moved up seven spots over the last five weeks while the Buccaneers, sitting sixth for the season at 65.5%, have fallen backwards.

Tampa Bay should have no issue moving the ball downfield against a struggling Dallas defense, and even if this lead balloons it shouldn't prevent the offense getting in range for McLaughlin.
