"The Cowboys run defense was one of the worst, if not the worst, in the league prior to the trade that brought Quinnen Williams to Dallas. His addition to their defensive line has been the catalyst that has dramatically improved the run defense for the better. Since Williams' arrival opponents have only rushed for 204 yards, averaging 68 yards per game. While it's definitely encouraging, they haven't faced a RB duo like Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery."
"This Week 14 matchup between the Dallas Cowboys and Detroit Lions is an important one for both teams in order to keep their playoff hopes alive. Add in the fact that they become bitter rivals in recent years and have a natural hate/dislike for one another, and this game shapes up to be a physical slugfest. The Detroit Lions may have the home field advantage this week, but it hasn't exactly served them too well in their last two home games."
The Dallas Cowboys and Detroit Lions meet in Week 14 in a pivotal, physical matchup with major playoff implications for both teams. Detroit's home-field edge has been diminished by a narrow overtime win over the Giants and a heavy loss to Green Bay on Thanksgiving. Dallas has won three straight and relies on improved run defense after acquiring Quinnen Williams, limiting opponents to 204 rushing yards (68 per game) since his arrival. The Cowboys must contain Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery. Pass-rush threat Aidan Hutchinson can expose Dallas' tackles, with Terence Steele and Nate Thomas facing a key test. Protecting the quarterback and winning trench battles will likely determine the victor.
