The Detroit Lions beat the Dallas Cowboys 9-47 this Sunday and the Pittsburgh Steelers beat the Las Vegas Raiders 13-32 in their games in week 6 of the 2024 NFL season.
At AT&T Stadium, home of the Cowboys, the Lions had an offensive feast in which Jared Goff, who hit three touchdown passes, and David Montgomery, with two rushing touchdowns, stood out.
Dallas offered its worst performance of the season. Dak Prescott suffered two interceptions and four sacks; He left the game in the last period due to the impossibility of reversing the result.
The defeat soured the birthday celebration of Jerry Jones, owner of the Cowboys, who turned 82 this Sunday.
The approval for the victory in Detroit was ruined by the loss of Aidan Hutchinson, their defensive star, who left the game due to a possible fracture in his left leg.
Lions have four wins and one loss in second place in the North division of the National Conference (NFC). Cowboys, 3-3, are at the bottom of the NFC East.
