Cowboys vs Lions: Dallas opens as 6-point favorites for Week 17

locked up their NFC playoff spot a few weeks ago because if they were still chasing it, they would be in trouble. The Cowboys were routed last week by the Buffalo Bills (-13) 31-10, and while it wasn't as bad this week, they still fell. A last-second field goal by the Miami Dolphins (+3) propelled them to a 22-20 win over Dallas.

There are currently still iterations of how Dallas could catch the Philadelphia Eagles (-13.5)

and win the NFC East, but that would require some help. They need the Eagles to lose, but regardless of that what the Cowboys really need is to start winning again.
