Lions vs. Cowboys preview: Game # 10 ( 2019 )

PFT’s Week 11 picks


Cowboys at Lions

MDS’s take: The Lions’ season is spiraling down the tubes, and whether Matthew Stafford is playing or not, I don’t see them beating the Cowboys.
MDS’s pick: Cowboys 28, Lions 20.

Florio’s take: The Cowboys are becoming this year’s win-the-games-they-should, lose-the-games-they-should franchise.
Florio’s pick: Cowboys 28, Lions 21.

……………

I'm currently seeing this game as a Cowboys 27-17 win. I have doubts the Lions will reach the 20 point mark, barring a late Lions score with the Cowboys still leading.

Ex-Lions QB Kellen Moore returns to Detroit as Dallas Cowboys offensive coordinator

……………

If the Cowboys don't at least get to the NFC Championship game this season or next season, I think there's a good chance Jerry Jones will replace Jason Garrett as Head Coach. Kellen Moore and Kris Richard, who among other roles calls the Cowboys Defensive Plays, would probably be the Co-Favorites to replace Garrett.

Detroit Lions vs. Dallas Cowboys: Key factors, matchups to watch

……………

My greatest concern in this game is the differential abilities of DE DeMarcus Lawrence. He's been a difference maker for the Cowboys against the Lions since the Cowboys 1st Round playoff win in the 2014 season. It's safe to assume that Tyrell Crosby or whoever is playing RT for the the Lions is going to need helped regularly on passing plays. Rick Wagner struggled mightily against Lawrence in the Cowboys last second win over the Lions in 2018.

Detroit Lions vs. Dallas Cowboys predictions: Who wins and why

…………..

For the Lions to have a realistic chance at winning this game, at minimum, the Lions need to have more takeaways than turnovers. The Lions inability to force takeaways in the last 4 combined games ( only 1 in total ) has proven costly.

Detroit News predictions: Cowboys at Lions

………………..

Injuries caught up to the Lions long before this game.

Detroit Lions vs. Dallas Cowboys: Dave Birkett's scouting report, prediction

…...……..

The Lions are coming off a strong Special Teams performance in Chicago. Considering the Cowboys clearly have the edge on paper on Offense and Defense, the Lions Special Teams have to be positive difference makers.

Final score predictions for Detroit Lions vs. Dallas Cowboys

……………

The Lions running game is an essential part of whether the Lions can remain in this game and ultimately pulling off an upset.

Five things to watch: Cowboys at Lions

……………….



The health of the Cowboys Offensive Line is far from where the Cowboys prefer. Whether the Lions Defensive Line, which continues to have plenty of health issues can take advantage of the Cowboys being without 20 % or 40 % of their starting Offensive Line at the beginning of tbe game remains to be seen.

Former Lions quarterbacks Moore, Kitna guiding high-powered Cowboys attack

………………

It feels like a 'Back to the Future' movie.

[D6]

Tracy Walker in, Romeo Okwara out for Detroit Lions’ banged up defense

………………….

Very good news regarding Tracy Walker. It remains to be seen how many snaps Walker will get in this game.

The Lions have only 5 Defensive Lineman available for this game. Four of them were on the injury report in the lsst few days. That's not a formula conducive to keep the Cowboys Offense from helping take control of the game.

In looking at the Cowboys Depth Chart, even including the promotion of Josh Jones, the Cowboys seem thin in their Secondary.
