Dallas Cowboys vs Detroit Lions: Where to watch & what to look for in Week 14
Are the Cowboys the best in the East? | NFC B-EAST
The crew reviews a disappointing week for three teams in the NFC East, with only the Cowboys going home with a win. Can the Giants, Commanders, and Eagles bounce back?
DALLAS - The Dallas Cowboys will take on the Detroit Lions on Thursday night in what will prove to be a pivotal game for both teams.
Cowboys vs Lions
What we know:
The game will feel like a playoff match in Michigan with both the Lions and the Cowboys needing a win to improve their postseason chances.
Currently, the Cowboys have a 35% chance of making the playoffs. If they lose to the Lions, it's only an 8% chance.
The Cowboys, who are now only a game and a half behind the Eagles in the division, are hoping to extend their three-game winning streak.
The defense will be tested against Detroit's dynamic running back duo that is Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery. The two combined have 1562 yards, 16 touchdowns, and 35 explosive plays. Gibbs is fourth in the NFL with 1,019 yards on the ground.
Fortunately for the Cowboys, their run defense has greatly improved thanks to the acquisition of defensive tackle Quinnen Williams.
Before the bye, Dallas ranked 28th in run defense. But after the past three games, the Cowboys are now third in rushing yards allowed. That's quite a turnaround.
The Lions, who are currently third in the NFC North, are just as desperate. This is also a must-win for them.
Detroit is favored to win with the home-field advantage. Dallas has not beaten a contending team on the road so far this year. So, if there was ever a time for a road win, it's now.
