The Lions (4-6) will be hosting the Buffalo Bills (7-3) and this time the Lions might not be jive turkeys in this game. Detroit has won three straight games, including a 31-18 thumping against the New York Giants last Sunday.
Meanwhile, the Bills have struggled, losing two of their last three games but did get the win against Cleveland (in Detroit) last week as the game was moved due to the record setting snow storm in the Buffalo area. Look for a high scoring game with the Bills edging out the host Lions.
In Dallas, the Cowboys (7-3) have a huge game against the New York Giants (7-3) with second place in the ultra competitive NFC East division on the line. The Cowboys beat the Giants earlier in the season on Monday Night Football. Both teams have been playing good defense through the first ten games but Dallas rates the edge on offense and that should be the difference in this one.
The night cap game will be in Minnesota between the Vikings (8-2) and the New England Patriots (6-4) and anything is possible here. The Patriots won their game against the New York Jets last Sunday in an improbable way as Marcus Jones took a punt back 84 yards for a touchdown in the closing seconds while their defense dominated, limiting the Jets to 103 total yards in offense, including allowing only two yards the entire second half.
That won't be the case against the Vikings offense, although the Dallas Cowboys dominated Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins and the rest of the offense by holding them under 200 yards in a 40-3 rout. The Vikings will be angry heading into this one and should get the win. But again, anything is possible.
