Recipe for Defeating Lions Tomorrow

[Chuck 54]

Please tell me one because I don’t see any way possible unless they turn the ball over 4-5 times.

The Lions are an excellent team with one of the best, most physical OLs. They can run, which means they can pass. The two go together.
After last week’s win, I would say the same thing; if we can control their run game, we can keep the game close and maybe pull out a victory.

But now we have no MLB, and his backup, Vigil, is also out. Add a bunch of young, lightweight LBs to 4 missing DEs, and I think we are in big trouble. When a team can run on you, it demoralizes the whole team, energizes the offense, and opens up the passing game with play action and your DC needing to gamble to stop the run. It also kills your own offense that is on the sideline too much and pressured as the game plan goes out the window.

So if you have a realistic recipe for beating the Lions without our leading tackler and most important veteran of the defense, please share.

Simple

Win in the trenches and have the better qb on the field.

The lions oline is fantastic and they have the supporting cast at rb, we need to contain and limit big plays

The lions secondary and lbs can be exploited and they only have one premier pass rusher - dak and the wrs have to have a monster day.


Pretty straightforward....oh and the young backups have to step up!

Score more points.

Stop the run and make Goff beat you. Sell out to stop the run. If you lose because of Jared Goff i’m fine with that.

 

[Redsfan_83]

Make Goff beat you, and he hasn't been great this year. This game will be on Dak, and if he establishes the passing game it will once again open up the run. Keep Detroit's offense off the field

 

[The Natural]

It seems pretty simple to me. Dak needs to play like a top 5 QB, do that and we will generate enough points to win the game - the defense will get the one or two stops we need..the rest is on the offense.

 

[Tractor1]

Detroit is too balanced on offense for the Cowboys defense to compete. They're averaging 250 yards passing and 150 rushing.

 

[Ranching]

Come together as a team, block out the noise and pull your head out! Lameduck coaches have a hard time motivating individual players, they will have to play for themselves, their pride and their team.

 

[Praxit]

.....try to get a few 3 n outs. Dak & Co have to score often. TD's and FG's.

DONT SHOOT YOURSELVES IN THE FOOT, let them do that.

Hope, we got the right calls from the refs.

 

[slick325]

Win the turnover battle, score touchdowns off of those turnovers bend but don't break on defense, and score TDs in the red zone.

Have the balls and pride to represent the Dallas Cowboys, that is their job.

Stop trying to make a movie, win the damn game, simple as that. Put your stats away, that's for kids., and idiots.

 

[Hawkeye19]

You gotta set the pace with our offense and never take the foot off the gas… throw the kitchen sink at the Lions D, get the crowd into the game, and play tough third down D.

Hopefully the offense plays crisp and clean and puts up a ton of points. If they struggle again, it could very easily be a long, long Sunday

 

[Pipelayer72]

Don't let them dominate time of possession. They can really wear a defense down with a good run and pass attack. Limit turnovers and force a turnover(s). For some reason I think special teams play could be huge tomorrow. I think the Cowboys can win but limit the penalties and sustain drives that result in TD's. Having a great kicker is awesome but the Cowboys have to close out drives with TD's more. Can't count on Lion mistakes but hopefully they have some tomorrow. Gonna be a tough game. Cowboys win on a last second FG. Dak has a career game. Go Cowboys!!!

 

[Techsass]

My biggest worry is their running game. I'm also not sure we can pressure Goff enough, but if we do I like our chances.

Hasn’t been great? He was perfect last game. Perfect! 18-18 made easier by the run game threat.

 

[Chuck 54]

Okay, lots of “man up” comments, but how does the defense slow down the Lions without a MLB?

I think our only hope is if they pull a MLB out of their hat.

You hope and pray the whole Oline comes down with the squirts before the game...thats really your only shot.

Win in the trenches and have the better qb on the field.

No way in hell either of those requests could be fulfilled by Dallas.
