The Detroit Lions beat the Dallas Cowboys 47-9 on Sunday. It was the first time that the Lions had beaten the Cowboys since 2013 with Dallas winning the previous six matchups. That explains why the Cowboys were confident coming into the game.
Cowboys cornerback Jourdan Lewis, who had picked off Jared Goff in each of the last two games between the teams, told Kimberley Martin that the team had heard "all the naysayers," but a win over the Steelers had proven they were "a gritty team who can win in any condition." Lewis also said that "in no way can I believe that our team with the talent we have, that we can't compete and beat anyone."
