Lions vs. Cowboys Prediction, Picks & Prop Bets – NFL Week 7

The 1-4 Detroit Lions travel to Big D to take on the 4-2 Cowboys in a NFC showdown.

The Cowboys got a little embarrassed on Sunday Night Football against the Eagles, with Cooper Rush coming back down to earth.

It is looking like Dak Prescott is back to full health and is in line to play this game against the Lions.

There were murmurs that Cooper Rush might keep the starting job even when Dak comes back but that was only gossip. This is Dak's team and he will show people why again in this game.

The Lions on the other side have looked very competitive in almost every game but are 1-4. Their offense has been excellent to start, averaging 411 yards per game, second only to the Bills.

D'andre Swift and Amon-Ra St. Brown are trending towards being back this week, which will boost their offense immensely.

This game could be an offensive show so what are the best bets?

PREDICTION

I can 100% see the Cowboys pulling away and torching the Lions at home in this game.

Dak is back and I think he is going to come out wanting to make a statement and remind everyone that this is his team.

As I mentioned, the Lions know how to score and can score a lot. The Dallas defense is top 10 for sure but they struggled dealing with the Eagles and I think the Lions will be able to move the ball and score some points.

Getting Swift and St. Brown possibly being back will help the Lions and Jared Goff be able to keep up with the Cowboys.

With the Dak returning narrative and the Lions being able to move the ball, I love the over here.

BEST BET

OVER 48.5 (-114)
