00:00A huge NFC showdown tomorrow at the Star in Dallas between the Cowboys and the Lions.
00:06Again, Detroit this year off to a great start in the NFC North. They are 4-1. The Cowboys,
00:133-2 with all three wins coming away from the Star. Detroit has been the favorite in every
00:20single game this year. They have covered in all four of their victories. The NFC North is the
00:26best division in football. All five teams above 500. Nobody other in the National Football League
00:32and any of the other seven divisions have more than two teams that have a winning record. So,
00:39Joe, how will your evaluation of both Detroit and Dallas potentially change after the result
00:44on Sunday? Again, the Lions, they rode favorite at the Star with the highest total of the weekend,
00:5052 and a hook. Yeah, and it makes all, it makes total sense here. We're dealing with
00:56two teams that love to throw the ball. We're also, ironically enough, Ben, we're dealing with
01:02two teams that have the highest third down conversion rate in the NFL. Second in the NFL
01:08are the Lions. Third are the Cowboys. You know, Cowboys gain almost 77% of their yards by passing
01:16it. That is what we're going to get here. Both of these teams combined average about 128 plays a
01:23game. There is going to be multiple opportunities for points to be scored in this game. And listen,
01:30totals over 50, Ben, this year have not exactly been crushing the over. They have fallen woefully
01:36short so far here through the first five weeks of the season. I don't know that this one, like the
01:42one last night, also, I don't know that this one is going to fall short of the fifth. It's high for
01:48a reason. I think that eventually turns around. No way would I sweat out an under with these two
01:53offenses.
