On paper, the clear advantage favors this Dallas Cowboys passing attack. The Los Angeles Chargers have vulnerabilities throughout. These issues help explain why the Chargers are currently allowing the most passing yards per game (299.8) and the third-highest yards per pass attempt.
It's best we pounce on this weakness in a few different ways tonight.
There's a squeaky wheel narrative at play here that could lead to a big CeeDee Lamb game. Lamb was visibly upset on the sideline last week with the Cowboys getting blown out by the 49ers, and it was reported that he and Dak Prescott had a conversation this week to get on the same page.
Sometimes, it really is as simple as having a ticked off star WR leading to some big passing outputs. Remember when cameras caught an angry A.J. Brown on the sideline Week 2? Since then, he's gone for 125+ in four straight games.

It's easy to see a path to a big Lamb game here, and at +215 we're willing to dance with him hitting 100+ yards for just the second time this season.
Tony Pollard is the clear RB1 in Dallas, and he's seeing a steady stream of targets in the passing game, tied for second on Dallas with 22 targets.
That role should come in handy here against a Chargers defense allowing the most receptions per game to running backs this season. Pollard has 17 catches over his last four games, and we love the price here on him racking up four tonight.
