What Detroit Lions’ thoughts on the Dallas Cowboys
|The Dallas Cowboys and the Detroit Lions are two NFC teams that have already clinched a playoff spot.
The Cowboys (10-5) are 7-0 at home this season and have won 15 straight at AT&T Stadium. The Lions (11-4) have a 6-2 road record.
Detroit can improve its seeding against Dallas, but the Lions have already won their division and are guaranteed at least one home playoff game.

On third down, what makes Dak Prescott difficult to defend:
“He’s a complete quarterback who can do it all.” It’s difficult to disguise against him because he can see through it. He can change protections and knows where to throw the football. With pressure on him, he remains calm and composed. And then he has the ability to flee. He can escape the pocket to make a throw, but he can also get downfield with his legs.”
His reaction to Jerry Jones’ praise:
“As a player, Mr. Jones was always nice to me. It was a terrific experience, being around a lot of excellent people for three years, and it means a lot when you grew up there and you’re a Cowboys fan. I believe it’s a fantastic feeling when people acknowledge the things you’re doing or the way you’re doing them, the way you go about your business, and they acknowledge it. You think to yourself, ‘Alright.’ You have the impression that you are going about things correctly. So it’s flattering, but I also know they want to run us over. And we want to follow suit. So that’s a League member.”s, I can tell you that.”
