The SportsLine Projection Model has revealed its Detroit vs. Dallas picks for 'Thursday Night Football' in Week 14

Two big offenses and season's highest betting over/under on points awaits as hot Dallas Cowboys visit Detroit Lions to kick off NFL Week 14. Our pick

Both the Dallas Cowboys and Detroit Lions need to win on Thursday night to avoid seeing their playoff chances slip away.

The Detroit Lions have not been the powerhouse that many were expecting to see this season. After finishing 15-2 in the regular season a year ago, the Lions were eliminated in the playoffs by the upstart Washington Commanders,

They narrowly escaped the Giants with an overtime victory in Week 12 and then pretty much got dominated on Thanksgiving by the Packers. So maybe it’s not much of an advantage after all. For the Cowboys to secure their fourth victory in a row they need to be on top of their game and probably need to win a few important matchups to help sway the game in their favor.

The Dallas Cowboys were the only NFC East team to win in Week 13, and are closing the gap in the division as the NFL season enters a crucial stretch with the playoffs in sight.

Here's everything you need to know when the Dallas Cowboys play the Detroit Lions Week 14 of the 2025 NFL season.
