Why the Cowboys win
Why not? The Cowboys have won three of their last four meetings with the Lions and are undefeated on the road this season. Tony Romo is having an MVP-type season, and if he continues his torrid pace, Dallas' offense will roll up the points. Defensively, the Cowboys want revenge against a Lions offense that put up 39 points against them last season.


Why the Cowboys lose
Jon Kitna has been successful this season because of his ability to complete passes at a high rate. He ranks fifth in the NFL in completions and eighth in completion percentage. By doing that, Kitna should help the Lions beat the Cowboys' secondary. The Cowboys' offense plays well but can't make a play late in the game as the Lions shut down the running game.

Until someone shows me different...it looks like AP could run on anyone.
