Truly looking like a "house money" game!

The only good thing about the position the Cowboys are in this season is they won’t be showing up taking anyone for granted. This is our second straight home game where we’re underdogs. Never thought we would be 3.5 underdogs to Detroit at home. We usually play better when we’re being disrespected.

I don't understand how this juggernaut from Detroit is only a 3 pt favorite over a team missing a quarter of their starters and a porous defense. Seems odd.
The Cowboys have posted a record of beating the Lions in the last five games they played together.

That's not saying it's bound to happen again, but past records do enter into the current betting odds.

This contest is a great test of this teams mental fortitude. These players are not winning this game simply by beating the opponent across from them. This coaching staff will be put to the test not only with how well they install the X's and O's but how they get these players mentally ready for a talented, tough, well coached team.
Yep, exactly. As I stated in my earlier post.
To get this W would require a great deal of good coaching.
Will be interesting to watch.
