The upstart Lions and veteran Cowboys will jockey for playoff positioning when they square off in a Week 17 showdown on Saturday night.

Last weekend, Detroit clinched its first division title since 1993. But ahead of their first playoff appearance since 2016, the Lions still have plenty to play for.

The No. 1 overall seed in the NFC remains up for grabs, though Detroit needs help. In addition to winning out, the Lions need the 49ers to lose one of their final two games.

Back-to-back losses have certainly dampened the Cowboys' hopes of winning the NFC East, but a division crown is still within reach. Dallas must win its final two games, while the Eagles must also drop one of their final two contests.

Detroit storms into Dallas buoyed by a high-octane offense. The Lions are a top-five team in the NFL in both points per game and yards per game behind veteran quarterback Jared Goff and the powerful running back duo of David Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs.

After scoring over 30 points in five straight games, Dallas has scored just 30 points total across its last two games. Quarterback Dak Prescott and star wideout CeeDee Lamb will look to turn things around against a vulnerable Lions' defense.
