Week 11 vs. DET

Date published: Nov. 15, 2019


“There were 15 different quarterbacks selected in the 2016 NFL Draft. None of them have started more games, thrown for more yards, scored more touchdowns and won more games than Dallas’ Dak Prescott. His win total (37) outpaces Jared Goff (29) and Carson Wentz (28) by a pretty healthy margin, and his new contract might outpace those two top picks in 2016 before too long.”


Can DAL defense dominate Jeff Driskel?


  • No defense plays more man coverage than DET

  • DAL should try some offensive plays that they want to use against NE, since DET and NE defenses are very similar

  • Key DET defenders: Slay, Trey Flowers


Matchups to watch: Xavier Sua-Filo vs. Lions DTs, TJ Hockenson vs. DAL safeties


The Pick: Cowboys 27, Lions 17
