Upset special . Lions moneyline...when Romo throws a pick it will be for 6. Detroit has a capable offense that has under performed. .dallas has an offense that has shocker everyone due to coaching. .yes they ran the damn ball, something they won't do Saturday. ..Romo will be forced to throw and Jason Garrett will have to actually coach..ouch.

If you look at both Stafford and Romo in my opinion Stafford is more consistent. Romo is due for a darn up and we all know when he people up, he people up big. Not to mention how many losing seasons the Lions had (they are sick of losing) this is a hungry team who wants to make a statement. Romo isn't Rogers and will never be. The turn overs in this game will hurt the Cowboys as they go in the game confident and cocky. with all that being said i am going Detroit to win the game straight up with 4 or more points.

Prediction: Lions 38-31
Where do you come up with 80 percent on Dallas? Think you should research before you post such a statement!

The Detroit Lions, Money Line. Over 49.

This will be the first upset of  playoffs. 

The Detroit Lions are 1st in the league in rushing yards allowed and 12th in passing. While the Dallas Cowboys are 2nd in the League in offensive rushing yards per game, that is largely because of DeMarco Murray. DeMarco Murray had a hand surgery two weeks ago. He did not finish the game against the Redskins last week. He looked shaken up after a few plays. He will be hammered by that Lions' Defensive Line. 

While the Lions are only scoring an average of 20 points per game this season, they will score in this game. Dallas is 28th in the league in opposition passing yards allowed. That's bad when going against Calvin Johnson and Golden Tate. Also, Reggie Bush will be a factor in this game. He missed a lot of games because of an ankle injury. The Lions did not force him back into the lineup thinking about the playoffs. He is back healthy and will be a factor in this game.

Defense that were good during the regular season become great. Detroit won't lose by more than 3.

o/u line >44 pts has me thinking the Lions will put enough points on the board to cover the 7.

Lions - Over  

Spread will be a factor, good pick colonel!

Nevertheless your probably right. Although I just can't bring myself to bet the Pokes. I remember those Lion fans with the bags on their heads, maybe their time has arrived. Then again maybe not.  I'm with them today. Lions for da money.

Don't the Cowboys wish they were playing on the road...

I think -6.5, 7 is too much to give to the Cowboys at home even though they have been playing red hot it makes sense they are favored by this much. Lions have yet to prove they can beat a great team on the road.. 

But Dallas is not a great team...But they are good and their offensive line and running game is the best in the business. However they will be playing the best run defense in the business and a decent secondary. I think Dallas much like the Cardinals have overachieved this season. 

I remember last year's game where Matt Stafford ran in for a touchdown on a QB sneak on last play to beat the Cowboys. The Lions defense was a joke then and they still won the game! Say what you will about Stafford's 0 for 17 record on the road against .500 above teams but don't expect the Cowboys to just roll over the Lions.. I expect a 3-4 point margin..maybe 6 point victory either way

Taking the Lions.... Buy the hook if they don't offer 7 or tease it to 13. Put some on the Money line for a bonus. I think Stafford's second playoff game will be better effort than his first.


Sip on that plus money honey!

Detroit has started so slow in almost every game this year....if you start slow in this one, gotta be wary of Stafford throwing it up for grabs...I don't like their conservative offense with this new coach...know why they do it(because they think their D is great) and that attitude has worked....don't think it works today   Dallas 30-20.

With that being said, put me down for Detroit plus the chalk (6.5) for a Dime please.  Thanks!

Detroit has the capability to go into Dallas and win this game. Romo has not been average in playoff starts. Romo was great during the regular season but win or go home situations always differ. Stanford hasn't been good during his career starts in the playoffs either, but Detroit is a dome team and today they're offense should move the Ball.  They key to this game is D. Bryant. If the lions can contain him from breaking out big plays then lions should cover the spread....

Dallas 23

Lions 20

I think Dallas is for real this year, but the odds are against them as a home favorite.  Detroit reminds me of the Bengals "One and Done" in the playoffs.  I think Dallas will win, but I'm gonna take the over.

my pick: Over48
