The Dallas Cowboys are red hot on a three-game win streak having beaten both the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs over the last two and will now hit the road to take on the Detroit Lions. The Lions have been inconsistent over the last month having won just three of seven. At 7-5, they are in must-win mode, especially with teams like Dallas now breathing down their neck just a half game back in NFC seeding.
Kickoff is set for Thursday, December 4, 2025 at 6:15 p.m. Mile High time at Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan and will air on Prime Video.
According to FanDuel, the Lions are 3-point favorites at home over the Cowboys. The NFL is all about momentum and the Cowboys are certainly riding high. Both defenses have been giving up plenty of points this season, so it really comes down to which offense is playing better right now for me. That has to go to Dallas. Just three weeks ago, I would never have picked them to beat the Lions. But they are playing really well right now. Got to stick with the hot hand.
Prediction: Cowboys 30, Lions 26.
