Welp....food for thought :popcorn:

The Cowboys-Lions game draws the Tony Corrente officiating crew. Home teams have won the last 5 games Corrente has worked. Also, his crew is toughest of the 17 NFL officiating crews on road teams, assessing an average of 9.2 penalties for 67.2 yards against them.

add to this that the league is probably going to throw a number of personal fouls today to show the country that they are not soft on hits to the head and late hits.

I imagine in every game today anything close gets a flag.

Jason Garrett effect: Lions have no starting QB, no starting RB and a banged up defensive backfield, yet I feel confident Dallas will play that special brand of football that keeps the game close until the very end.

Time to break out the triple reverses, flea flicker, TE option pass etc lol

I don’t feel good about this game. Too many bad memories playing in Detroit.

Their only playoff victory came against us in '91.

Megatron's nearly 300 yard game.

Up by 20 in the fourth and we still lose. IIRC.

Yeah bad memories. But I'm pretty sure their fans feel the same way about us.

Honestly, I see a game where we take control early for a change.

Lions score a late garbage time TD to make it look semi respectable.

28-14

Dallas.

no save these for NE we dont need that this game..seriously look how much NE struggles with the crazy sets and a moving QB etc.. using Pollard/Zeke and Austin with a lot of motion and moving would be way to stay with NE..

thats the game we should just say hey we are supposed to lose anyway so lets throw in everything but the kitchen sink..

I am really curious to see if Tampa beats New Orleans today.

So why would this crew be any different from any other crew rather we are home or away? :lmao:
