Dallas Cowboys
It will be just over six years since the last time the Dallas Cowboys flew north to face the Detroit Lions. The last three meetings have occurred in Texas.
The Lions stomped the Cowboys at AT&T Stadium last year to snap a long losing streak to Dallas.
This year, they’ll be looking to extend their winning streak led by Dak Prescott’s steady play.
Speaking of active streaks. The Cowboys have won three straight games for the first time since a five-game win streak back in 2023.
That was also the last year they made the playoffs.
A five-game win streak...

When the Cowboys take the field Thursday night in Detroit, they won’t be going up against the offensive juggernaut the Lions have become known for, and that’s not just because the Lions will be missing both Amon-Ra St. Brown and Sam LaPorta.
The Lions lost both coordinators in the offseason, with Ben Johnson taking the Bears job and Aaron Glenn taking the Jets job. Dallas lost to Johnson and beat Glenn, so this game can serve as the tiebreaker in the Dan Campbell Invitational. But those coaches’ departures spurred plenty of offseason debate over how Detroit could survive without them....

The Dallas Cowboys travel to the Motor City this week to face the Detroit Lions. The Cowboys have a 6-5-1 record and are in second place among the NFC teams trying to crash the Wild Card playoff party. The Lions are the first team out of the playoff picture right now at 7-5. That shows just how important this matchup will be for each team. Additionally for the Cowboys, they have hopes of catching Philadelphia in the NFC East, so they can’t afford to drop a game in that race, either.
The Cowboys come in with all the momentum as...

The Dallas Cowboys are set to take on the Detroit Lions tonight in a huge matchup that will likely make or break the playoff chances for both teams.
A loss for either would drop their chances down to nearly under 10%, and the Cowboys are going to have to win this game tonight without the help of two starters who have been officially ruled out.

What Dallas needs to do to push their winning streak to four games.
The Dallas Cowboys enter Week 14 with momentum and an identity that has sharpened over the past month. Winners of three straight, they now face a Detroit Lions team built on physicality, heavy man coverage, and a YAC-driven offense that punishes poor tackling.
For Dallas, the path to victory will come down to whether they can impose their strengths against a Lions team that is looking to...

As we get closer to the end of the 2025 season, the surging Cowboys have suddenly moved into the NFC playoff conversation. One big wrinkle for Dallas, and the also-contending Green Bay Packers, is their tie result from Week 4. What does this standings anomaly mean for Dallas and the rest of the conference in the ever-developing playoff picture?
Cowboys fans can be forgiven if they’re not sure how to feel about or understand the impact of a tie. They don’t happen often: Dallas and Green Bay’s is the only one so far this year and the first since 2022....

With five weeks left in the 2025 regular season, we suddenly have a real race in the NFC East. A three-game win streak for the Cowboys, coupled with a two-game slump for the Philadelphia Eagles, has brought Dallas just two games behind the division leaders.
Remember a few weeks ago when all those “the NFC East will have a repeat winner for the first time since 2004” posts were circulating? Cute, right? The streak is fighting for survival as Dallas is coming on strong in a push for the playoffs. While a wild card spot is still available as a...

Not to take anything away from the Dallas Cowboys current three-game win streak, but they are pretty fortunate they are not at 1-2 instead. Slow starts against both the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs nearly doomed them from the get-go, but somehow they were able to overcome the early deficit with some late game heroics.
A few weeks ago in Week 12 the Eagles jumped out to an early 14-0 lead over the Cowboys in the first quarter. They extended that lead to 21-0 after a KaVontae Turpin fumble early in the second quarter, but Dallas was able...

We are officially in the time of year when you are calculating wins and losses. The Dallas Cowboys have hopes for the postseason but need to keep stacking wins and get some help along the way to make the math work in their favor. After today’s final injury report, the Cowboys are going to see a far different Lions team than they would have expected to square off against earlier this season. Here’s the latest on injuries before tomorrow’s big game.
Having not practiced all week, Tyler Guyton was ruled out with a high-ankle sprain. Trevon Diggs (knee) has been...

It was an eventful Thanksgiving, as the Cowboys pulled out a gutsy win over the Chiefs that, at one point, felt like it was doomed for yet another last-second Mahomes victory. Then, a day later, Black Friday yielded a great half-off deal, with the Eagles’ offense collapsing yet again in a loss to the Bears.
Suddenly, the Cowboys sit just two games back of the Eagles and, having split that series, and owning a better divisional record. The path to the playoffs looks a lot less murky than it did just before kickoff against the Eagles. Imagine that.
So how...

The Dallas Cowboys are America’s Team. We all know this to be true, not just in a nickname sense but one of captivation as the Cowboys are the biggest draw in the NFL. No one around here is offering this as some point of success, we are simply stating the facts of life.
This particular fact was proven out on Thanksgiving Day by the viewership numbers. Last week’s Cowboys win over the Kansas City Chiefs was the most-watched regular season game of all time in NFL history. Over 57 million people tuned in.
A whopping 57.2 million viewers watched...

Every week, we’re digging into the trenches, offense and defense, because that’s where the real action happens. In this installment, we’re shining a spotlight on the offensive line, who’s holding it down, who’s opening holes for the running backs, and who’s keeping Dak Prescott clean. Let’s get to it.
