NFL Week 7 Early Odds, Picks & Predictions: Lions vs. Cowboys

This is a line you need to grab right now. It sounds like Dak Prescott is ready to return after suffering a thumb injury in Week 1. There's no such thing as easing in with the NFL, but getting the worst scoring defense in the league is as close as possible.

Dallas has also put together an excellent defense. They come in as the third-best scoring defense and eighth in total yards allowed, thanks to players like Micah Parsons, who’s looking like a Defensive Player of the Year candidate.

The Lions were one of the league’s flashiest and most exciting offenses, but with a shutout in New England and now having another tough road game, it’s time to temper expectations.

Dallas Cowboys -7 (-110)
