Core Plays
Dallas Cowboys: QB Dak Prescott
- As has been the case all season, expect Dak to be the offensive star at home in this matchup. The offense clearly runs through him and this is a great matchup.
Detroit Lions: RB David Montgomery
- The Cowboys defense is susceptible to the run, especially with there being some injuries up front. Jared Goff hasn’t been the same passer on the road so it wouldn’t surprise me to see the Lions offense run through Montgomery early and often.
*NOTE: All plays above are obviously “Captain” viable
Captain Plays
Dallas Cowboys: RB Tony Pollard
Others to consider:
WR Amon-Ra St. Brown (DET)
Flex Plays
Dallas Cowboys: WR CeeDee Lamb
- The passing game clearly runs through Lamb and he’s clearly taken a step forward this season. There is value here on this slate to fit Lamb in.
Others to consider:
- Brandin Cooks (DAL)
- TE Jake Ferguson (DAL)
- WR Jameson Williams (DET)
- RB Jahmyr Gibbs (DET)
- TE Sam Laporta (DET)
- K Brandon Aubrey (DAL)
- WR Kalif Raymond (DET)
