Just one NFL game is slated for Saturday, but it's a pivotal one. The Lions will head to Dallas to take on the Cowboys in a game that could dramatically impact the NFC playoff race.
Detroit, fresh off clinching its first division title since 1993, is still alive for the No. 1 overall seed in the NFC. But the Lions need some help to secure home-field advantage throughout the playoffs and a first-round bye.
The Lions must win their final two regular season games (at Cowboys, vs. Vikings), while the 49ers must lose one of their final two contests (at Commanders, vs. Rams).

Dallas, in spite of a two-game losing skid, is still in the race for the NFC East crown. But, just like the Lions, the Cowboys don't control their own destiny.
The Cowboys must win out (vs. Lions, at Commanders), and the Eagles would have to lose one of their final two games (vs. Cardinals, at Giants).
