Dallas managed to survive at home against Detroit last week, in part due to a bungled call on a Lions’ two-point conversion in the final minute that would have given Detroit the lead. The Cowboys improved to 11-5 on the season and find themselves tied with the Eagles for the division lead. A win here, or an Eagles loss to the Giants, would give Dallas the NFC East crown and the #2 seed in the NFC playoffs. Against Detroit, Dallas led 7-3 after the opening quarter and at the half, then found themselves even at 10 at the end of three quarters. The Cowboys rallied to take a 20-13 lead with 1:41 to play only to see the Lions drive down the field for a touchdown with 23 seconds to play. Detroit converted the initial two-point conversion only to be flagged: the Cowboys came up with the stop on the ensuing attempt to secure the victory. Dallas was outgained 420-384 in total offense, lost the first down battle 21-17 and was edged 30:36 to 29 :24 in time of possession yet managed to prevail. Each team turned the ball over twice in the game.
