The Dallas Cowboys and Detroit Lions meet on Thursday Night Football in Week 14 with both teams fighting to stay alive in the NFC playoff race.
Detroit enters at 7-5, coming off a tough Thanksgiving loss to Green Bay and suddenly facing an uphill climb in the NFC North with Chicago (9-3) and Green Bay (8-3-1) pulling ahead.
Dallas, meanwhile, has flipped its season with back-to-back upsets over the Eagles and Chiefs to climb to 6-5-1. With a favorable closing schedule — Detroit, Minnesota, the Chargers, Washington and the Giants — the Cowboys still have a real shot at sneaking into the postseason.
The rivalry history leans Dallas: 19–13 all-time and winners of six of the last seven, including playoffs. But oddsmakers still have Detroit favored heading into Thursday night.
This game isn’t just a matchup… it’s survival.
