Cowboys-Lions Week 14 uniform matchup creates weird visual twist

In this story:
The Dallas Cowboys are riding high after their latest win over the Kansas City Chiefs. Not only was this their third consecutive win, but two of them were also against the teams that played in the most recent Super Bowl.
Dallas is playing with supreme confidence, but their latest challenge will again test their mental toughness. In Week 14, they're on the road to take on the Detroit Lions on Thursday Night Football.
The last time these two teams met, it was a blowout win for the Lions. Detroit had its way with the Cowboys, winning 47-9 in a game that was over by the second quarter. Dallas has to put up a better showing in this one, or they could see their playoff hopes take a major hit.

As for the game itself, things will look different for the Cowboys. While they're typically the team wearing white with blue as their secondary color, that will be flipped. Detroit is wearing their white uniforms, and that will put Dallas in their seldom-used navy jerseys.

Some Dallas fans love this uniform and wish it would be worn more often, while others argue it's cursed. Whatever the take, it's going to be a weird twist to see the opponent wearing white and blue.
