Cowboys-Lions opening Week 14 odds continue underestimating Dallas

In this story:
The Dallas Cowboys wrapped up November riding high on a three-game winning streak, following the team's Thanksgiving Day feast over the Kansas City Chiefs at AT&T Stadium.
Dallas now has a week to recover after beating last season's two Super Bowl teams in four days, before returning to action for another primetime game in Week 14.
The Cowboys' next outing will be on Thursday, December 4, with another high-profile showdown against the Detroit Lions. Despite Dallas' three-game winning streak and the Lions coming off a loss to the Green Bay Packers on Thanksgiving, the Cowboys continue to be underestimated.

Dallas enters next week as a slight 3.5-point road underdog, while a high-flying affair is expected with the over/under set for 54.5 total points.

If you want to roll the dice on the moneyline, the Cowboys are +170 dogs while Detroit is a -200 favorite. That means a $100 bet on the Cowboys would win $170, while you would need to risk $200 on the Lions for a $100 payday.
Kickoff between the Cowboys and Lions is set for 8:15 p.m. ET on Prime Video.
