Dallas at Detroit

Both teams' playoff hopes are hanging by a thread, but Dallas is on the way up after winning three in a row, while Detroit has lost four of seven and is heading downward. The Lions are dealing with several key injuries on the offensive line and in the secondary, and it showed in their 31-24 loss to Green Bay on Thanksgiving Day. The Cowboys come off a massive win over Kansas City, and they have gone OVER in four straight road games. Detroit is 12-3 OVER following an ATS loss, and 5-1-1 OVER after totaling more than 350 yards the previous week. Dallas has made a habit of cranking it up in December, averaging 29.1 points per game since 2019. The Cowboys offense also loves the turf and this being indoors means points will be had. Given Detroit's resiliency after a loss, I'm projecting a shootout. Take the Cowboys/Lions OVER.
