Sunday's marquee matchup between the Baltimore Ravens and Dallas Cowboys will take place in Rio, Brazil, as the NFL continues to expand its international audience. This game has major shootout potential provided field conditions don't become an issue. Here is a Same Game Parlay that I am playing for Sunday afternoon.
I priced this SGP across five different sportsbooks early Saturday morning. Each had this parlay priced at least +443, with DraftKings offering the best price at +500. These prices may vary, and most of the major sportsbooks will offer SGP promos for this game. Because of that, you may be able to find better pricing than what I currently list below.

NFL International Series Same Game Parlay: Ravens vs. Cowboys
(Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook)
- Leg 1: Lamar Jackson 40+ Rushing Yards (-118)
- Leg 2: Rashod Bateman 40+ Receiving Yards (-137)
- Leg 3: CeeDee Lamb 7+ Receptions (-116)
One of the biggest deficiencies in the Dallas defense through the first two weeks of the season is their absolute inability to defend mobile quarterbacks. Jaxson Dart and Jayden Daniels combined for 128 yards on 15 designed runs and scrambles against the Cowboys. Let's not forget that Daniels only played one half of football last week before dislocating his elbow. Otherwise, he may have had a shot to rush for 100 yards or more.
Even if Jackson isn’t running as often as he did in years past, he is still elite when he gets going. Jackson has rushed for 77 yards on just eight scrambles and designed runs this year. The Ravens may be without Zay Flowers again this game. That would leave Baltimore with one less playmaker on offense. I expect Jackson to take on added rushing responsibilities with Dallas keying in on Derrick Henry.
Next, I am betting on Rashod Bateman to have at least 40 receiving yards in this matchup. With Flowers out last week, Bateman set team highs with seven receptions, nine targets, and 88 receiving yards. If Flowers is sidelined again, this should be a smash for Bateman against a Dallas defense that enters this matchup ranking 30th in the NFL in EPA versus the pass. We only need Bateman to be half as productive as he was last week to cash this leg of the SGP.
Finally, I am taking CeeDee Lamb of the Cowboys to finish this game with at least seven receptions. The Ravens have been a middle-of-the-pack defensive unit through two weeks. But they’ve struggled to limit underneath receptions to opposing wide receivers. Chris Olave and Devaughn Vele combined to catch 13 of 17 targets against the Ravens a week ago. Before that, the Colts trio of Alec Pierce, Josh Downs, and Keenan Allen caught 12 of 16 intended targets.
Dallas enters Week 3 with the NFL’s highest PROE (pass rate over expectation). If their defense cannot contain Baltimore's offense, Dallas may have to put more emphasis on putting points on the board. That means more opportunities for their receiving corps. Lamb leads all Cowboys with a 26.2 percent share of Dak Prescott's targets. Baltimore ranks 10th overall in pass rush win rate, so Prescott may need to rely on his most trusted receiver even more than usual in this matchup. I think Lamb will be heavily involved, and I like him to record at least seven receptions on Sunday.
Parlay Odds: +500
