Detroit Lions vs. Dallas Cowboys | 2023 Week 17 Game Highlights

SECONDARY EITHER. WE SAW STEPHON GILMORE, HE

JUMPED IT. THOSE GUYS PLAY AGGRESSIVE. WE KNOW THE TYPE OF YEAR DERON BLAND HAS HAD, BUT IT’S A

PHYSICAL GROUP. >> Joe: THIRD DOWN AND TEN, AND THAT’S A NICE THIRD DOWN CONVERSION TO START THIS GAME.

>> Joe: THEY FAKE THE HANDOFF. GOFF HAS GOT ST. BROWN. AND AMON-RA IS DOWN OUT OF MIDDLE AT THE GUARD POSITION, BUT THEY’RE STILL PRETTY STOUT

ACROSS THE BOARD. >> Joe: THEY DO HAND TO MONTGOMERY, AND HE PICKS IT UP. GOOD PATIENCE BY DAVID

MONTGOMERY. HE HESITATED, LET THAT HOLE OPEN OTHERWISE, THE LIONS PROBABLY LOOKING AT A NEW SET OF DOWNS.

>> Joe: HERE’S GIBBS. LONG WAY TO GO.

LOOKED LIKE THE KNEE WENT DOWN, AND A FLAG FLIES LATE.

A STOP AND FORCE A LONGER FIELD GOAL.

THEY DECLINED. >> Joe: NOT A GOOD SNAP, BUT A

GOOD HOLD BY JACK FOX. AND THE FIRST POINTS OF THE NOT A GOOD MATCHUP FOR DETROIT. THEY HAVE BEEN HAVING A

REVOLVING DOOR OPPOSITE OF CAM SUTTON. >> Joe: MAKES THE MOVE AFTER GOING AROUND SUTTON, AND HE’S

STILL RUMBLING AROUND INSIDE THE 40.

MIDDLE. >> Joe: ON THIRD DOWN, PRESCOTT

TRYING TO COME UNDERNEATH. AND HE’S — PICKED! INTERCEPTED BY MELIFONWU! THE EARLY TAKEAWAY BY THE LIONS

ON DEFENSE, AND BACK-TO-BACK GAMES WITH AN INTERCEPTION FOR BEST IN THE NFL. >> Joe: HERE IS ST. BROWN WITH

GOOD BLOCKING. AND A FIRST DOWN.

FOUND. >> Joe: THIRD DOWN AND EIGHT.

PRESSURE OFF THE EDGE FROM FOWLER, AND A SACK! A LOSS OF EIGHT, AND THAT SACK DRIVES DETROIT OUT OF FIELD GOAL

MAKE THAT PLAY IF KERBY JOSEPH DOESN’T COME OVER AND BREAK IT UP. >> Joe: NOW THIRD DOWN AND 13.

BLITZ COMING! PRESCOTT ABLE TO GET OUT OF THE

END ZONE AND NOW AIRS IT OUT FOR LAMB.

HE’S GOT IT! HE’S GONE!

WHEN HE GETS THERE, IT’S A TOUCHDOWN, COWBOYS. ON TOP.

THE COWBOYS WERE LOOKING FOR A CORNER IN THAT DRAFT, AND THE TWO TOP GUYS ON THE BOARD WERE GONE WHEN THEY WERE PICKING, AND

THEY TOOK MICAH PARSONS. HAD TO SETTLE FOR HIM. >> Joe: HERE IS ST. BROWN, ABLE THE FIND A WIDE-OPEN HOLE IN

THAT DEFENSE, A GAIN OF 19. >> Troy: WELL, THAT’S SUCH A HE’S MADE A LOT OF QUARTERBACKS PAY HERE THIS YEAR.

>> Joe: EIGHT INTERCEPTIONS, FIVE OF WHICH HE’S RETURNED FOR TOUCHDOWNS. THIS SCREEN IS INTERCEPTED.

WE’LL MAKE SURE THE CATCH WAS MADE, BUT JOURDAN LEWIS WAS THERE AND MADE THE PLAY FOR THE COWBOYS.

>> Joe: WE’LL GO BACK TO THE INTERCEPTION HERE IN A MOMENT. FIRST DOWN, BEST STARTING FIELD POSITION FOR THE COWBOYS UP 7-3.

HERE’S COOKS. AND A BIG PLAY. BUT THEY GET A TAKEAWAY HERE,

COMPLEMENTS OF THE PLAY BY JOURDAN LEWIS. SECOND DOWN AND FIVE. PRESCOTT HAS COOKS, HIS SECOND

CATCH ON THE POSSESSION. ANOTHER FIRST DOWN. NOW HE’S WITH DALLAS, AND HE’S BEEN PRODUCTIVE EVERYWHERE HE’S

BEEN. >> Joe: HERE’S POLLARD, BENDS BACK AND TAKES IT TO THE FIVE AND HAS A FIRST AND GOAL THERE.

HE’S AN OLD-SCHOOL GUY. HE’S BEEN WELL-DOCUMENTED, HIS GRANDFATHER BEING BARRY ALVAREZ. GOOD JOB RAISING HIM.

>> Joe: PRESCOTT, LAMB, BALL COMES OUT.

AND THIS IS GOING TO BE AN INTERESTING CALL. THIS COULD BE DETROIT’S BALL, AND THEY’RE CALLING IT A

CONFIRM THE CATCH. WHICH IT’S CLEARLY A CATCH

INCOMPLETE. >> Referee: THE RESULT OF THE

PLAY IS A TOUCHBACK. FIRST DOWN, DETROIT.

>> Joe: THIRD DOWN AND TWO. INCOMPLETE.

TARGET WAS WILLIAMS. AND AFTER THE TAKEAWAY AND THE FUMBLE THROUGH THE END ZONE, IT’S THREE AND OUT.

>> Troy: WELL, THEY GOT A CHANCE, AND THE COWBOYS GO MAN GROUND — >> Joe: THERE’S THE FAKE PUNT

AND NOW A THROW DOWNFIELD — THEY CONVERT! THE FAKE PUNT AND IT’S DORSEY WITH THE CATCH, AND DAN CAMPBELL

SEASON, AND THIS IS A 31-YARD GAIN ON THE THROW TO DORSEY. HANDOFF TO ST. BROWN. AND I GUESS DAN CAMPBELL WASN’T

CRYING ABOUT THAT MISSED OPPORTUNITY AND THE CATCH BY HIS EXECUTE IT PERFECTLY. THAT’S WELL-DONE.

>> Joe: FIRST DOWN AT THE 30. GIBBS ON THE CARRY. NICE MOVE IN THE HOLE, AND HE’S GOT ANOTHER FIRST DOWN FOR THE

LIONS. 11 YARDS FOR JAHMYR GIBBS. DETROIT HAS OFFENSIVELY AGAINST THIS DEFENSE, THEIR ABILITY TO

RUN THE FOOTBALL. >> Joe: ON FIRST DOWN, HERE HE

IS AGAIN! CUTS BACK, TURNS ON THE JETS, AND SETS UP FIRST AND GOAL. WHEN HE SEES SOME DAYLIGHT, AND

NOT MUCH OF A CHANCE TO GET THAT ONE IN.

>> Joe: THEY’RE GONNA HAND TO GIBBS.

AND HE’S NOT GONNA GET THERE. WILSON MADE THAT TACKLE. THIS A LITTLE MORE CONSERVATIVE. >> Joe: GOFF ON FOURTH DOWN.

END ZONE, INCOMPLETE. AND THE COWBOYS DEFENSE MAKES

THE STOP. LaPORTA, THE TARGET.

AND MICAH PARSONS HAS PRESSURE AGAIN.

HE’S GOT A CHANCE IF YOU JUST PUT IT ON HIM RIGHT AWAY. >> Joe: HERE IS POLLARD, AND A NICE RUN UP NEAR THE 20 BROUGHT

DOWN BY KERBY JOSEPH, BUT A GAIN OF SEVEN. EVERYONE IS BITING THAT FAKE OF PRESCOTT’S IN THE BACK FIELD.

>> Joe: PLAY ACTION AGAIN. SECOND AND FOUR.

HERE’S LAMB. HE’S ALL OVER THE PLACE.

ONE ON ONE DOWN THERE AT THE BOTTOM. >> Joe: PRESCOTT IS — SACKED! HUTCHINSON GETS HOME AND MAKES A

PLAY. AND A BIG ONE AT THAT.

THESE ARE TWO MEN IN JERRY JONES AND JOHNSON WHO ARE BRILLIANTLY SMART. THEIR RELATIONSHIP HAS COME AND

GONE. IT’S BEEN BEAUTIFUL.

IT’S BEEN ROCKY. AS JERRY JONES SAYS, THERE ARE SOME BEAUTIFUL STARS — AS RAYMOND GIVES DETROIT GOOD

THIRD DOWN STOPS. AND MAKE IT SIX.

PLAY MADE BY LAWRENCE, WHO’S HAD A BIG NIGHT. >> Troy: WELL, HE REALLY HAS. AND IT DOESN’T GET ANY EASIER

WELL. >> Joe: EXTRA MEN ON THE RUSH.

PASS OVER THE MIDDLE, IT’S CAUGHT.

FIRST DOWN, DALLAS. CEEDEE LAMB’S GOT ANOTHER. MAN, THERE’S A LOT HAPPENING AT THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE.

PRESCOTT, AIRS IT OUT. PASS IS INCOMPLETE. AND GREAT COVERAGE ON CEEDEE LAMB BY THE ROOKIE BRANCH.

AVERAGING JUST UNDER FIVE YARDS RUNNING THE FOOTBALL. >> Joe: THEY TRY IT AGAIN, AND MONTGOMERY ABLE TO BREAK LOOSE. MONTGOMERY OUT OF BOUNDS INSIDE DALLAS TERRITORY, AND A CARRY OF

21. >> Troy: WELL, THEY HAVE CREATED INSTEAD, THEY GO GUN AND HAND IT OFF AND ACTUALLY LOSE YARDAGE.

>> Joe: FOURTH DOWN AND TWO. QUICK SETUP AND THROW.

AND IT’S LaPORTA FOR THE FIRST DOWN.

WRESTLED OUT OF BOUNDS BY KEARSE, BUT NOT BEFORE HE GOT

FOUR. >> Troy: SAM LaPORTA IN

YOU CAN SEE THOSE TWO GOING AT IT.

THEY HAVE BEEN ALL NIGHT. SECOND AND THREE. FULL HEAD OF STEAM FOR GIBBS. HE’S GOT A FIRST DOWN AND COVERS

UP. KNOCKED DOWN AT THE 21 WITH A

NINE-YARD GAIN. >> Troy: YOU CALLED IT.

>> Joe: SECOND AND 13. HERE’S A PASS CAUGHT BY REYNOLDS, AND HE’S GOT A FIRST DOWN FOR DETROIT.

AND ONE FOR FIVE ON THIRD AND THREE OR LESS.

MONTGOMERY — GOT IT! TOUCHDOWN, DETROIT. >> Joe: I’M SURE DEUCE GETS TIRED OF HEARING ABOUT HIS

HEIGHT. 5’5″, 180.

HE’S OUT. POLLARD BACK IN, AND HE’S GOT IT

AND THEN SOME. COUPLE OF GOOD MOVES AND A BIG

RUN FOR THE COWBOYS INTO LIONS TERRITORY.

HERE ON THIRD AND LONG. THEY DO.

PASS IS CAUGHT! LAMB, FIRST DOWN. AND WHAT A JOB BY PRESCOTT TO HANG IN THERE, TAKE THE HIT, AND

DELIVER A STRIKE FOR A FIRST DOWN.

PUT THAT OUT IN FRONT OF HIM A LITTLE BIT MORE. >> Joe: THIRD DOWN AND EIGHT. LAMB CAN’T MAKE THE CATCH.

IT’S FOURTH DOWN. LAMB SPINS AROUND LOOKING FOR A I THINK CEEDEE LAMB KIND OF FELT THAT AS WELL.

>> Joe: 51-YARD ATTEMPT. AUBREY IS SENSATIONAL. HAD UP TO THIS POINT IF THEY’RE GOING TO BE ABLE TO FINISH THIS

ONE OFF. >> Joe: SECOND DOWN.

GOOD PROTECTION. DOWNFIELD — WILLIAMS GOT IT! JAMESON WILLIAMS TO THE 15! PARSONS HAD PRESSURE, GOFF HUNG

GOOD ONES OVER THE YEARS. >> Joe: SECOND DOWN AND 12. HERE’S ST. BROWN. HIT IN STRIDE AFTER MAKING HIS

BREAK. AND THAT WAS A THING OF BEAUTY

UP HIS BEST MAN-BEATER RIGHT HERE. >> Joe: THIRD DOWN AND THREE. PROTECTION, GIBBS, INCOMPLETE.

FOURTH DOWN. AND YOU WOULD THINK ON THE ROAD HIS THIRD GAME AS ACTIVE KICKER FOR THE LIONS FOR THE LEAD.

LIONS BACK ON TOP. TAKE A BREAK, COME BACK. THEY’VE GOT TO SHOW FOR WHAT THEY’VE DONE TONIGHT AFTER THE

FUMBLE CEEDEE HAD, THEY WENT INTO THE BACK OF THE END ZONE. >> Joe: HERE IS A WIDE-OPEN CEEDEE LAMB.

HE LOWERS HIS SHOULDER AND GETS ABOUT TEN.

GOTTEN ANYTHING GOING ON THE GROUND IN THIS ONE.

>> Joe: BRINGS UP THIRD AND FIVE.

BLITZ COMING. THEY PICK UP ANZALONE.

HERE’S COOKS. WHAT A CATCH!

BRANDIN COOKS WITH A BIG FIRST DOWN FOR DALLAS.

PERFECT THROW BY PRESCOTT. >> Troy: YEAH. THAT COMPLETION TO MAKE SURE THERE WASN’T TIME TO REVIEW IT.

BUT THAT WAS A CATCH. AND A BRILLIANT ONE AT THAT. HERE’S HUTCHINSON, DOESN’T GET THERE, AND THE PASS IS CAUGHT BY

45-YARD RECEPTION OR SO. >> Joe: POLLARD, ONE OF HIS

BETTER RUNS OF THE NIGHT! PICKED UP TEN. THINK OF HIM AS A STEP BACK AND THAT HE’S MORE OF A FINESSE

RUNNER. WE’VE SEEN ON THOSE LAST TWO RUNS, HE’S A POWERFUL GUY, AND HE CAN RUN BETWEEN THE TACKLES.

>> Joe: SECOND AND FOUR. END ZONE — CAUGHT! TOUCHDOWN, COWBOYS.

TO CONVERT, NO DOUBT. THIRD DOWN AND FIVE.

GOFF — INCOMPLETE FOR AMON-RA ST. BROWN.

NO FLAG. WITH HEAVY PRESSURE FROM

DeMARCUS LAWRENCE. AND THE PUNT TEAM COMES ON FOR BIG THIRD DOWN RIGHT NOW. >> Joe: LIONS NEED A STOP.

UNDER 4:30 TO GO. THIRD DOWN AND TEN, AND THERE HE

IS AGAIN! WHAT A NIGHT, CEEDEE LAMB.

IT’S GOING TO BE A 200-YARD NIGHT.

AND NOT TO BE STOPPED. GETS 22 HERE.

PLAY. EXTRA MEN ON THE RUSH, AND IT’S

HUTCHINSON SPINNING HIS WAY TO PRESCOTT!

>> Troy: OH, MAN. THAT TAKES ALL THE DECISION OUT THEY CAN BE NO WORSE THAN A NUMBER THREE SEED.

THEY WIN THEIR FINAL TWO, THEY’RE THE NUMBER TWO SEED, AND THEY HAVE AN OUTSIDE SHOT AT THE NUMBER ONE SEED.

GOFF, DOWN THE MIDDLE, PASS IS CAUGHT BY LaPORTA. AND HE GETS 15 YARDS. >> Troy: THAT SHOWS HIS

BUT GOFF, HE’S GOT ONE-ON-ONE, HE GOES RIGHT TO HIM. IT’S A NICE COMPLETION. >> Joe: TWO TIME-OUTS LEFT FOR

THE LIONS — AND AN INTERCEPTION!

PICKED OFF BY WILSON. WE’LL SEE THE END OF IT AND MAKE SURE DONOVAN WILSON SECURED THIS GOING TO THE GROUND.

WHAT A PLAY. >> Troy: REALLY GREAT PLAY.

HE DOES SECURE IT. THE BALL IS BEHIND HIM, BUT, AGAIN, IT GOES BACK TO THE PASS RUSH OF THE COWBOYS THAT DONOVAN

DAN CAMPBELL WANTS ONE MORE STOP.

>> Joe: QUICK THROW. TIGHT END, FERGUSON MAKES THE

AUBREY. FROM 43.

LIKE A WALK IN THE PARK. SEVEN-POINT GAME WITH 1:41 LEFT. AT LEAST GET FOUR HANDS ON HIM. >> Joe: UNDERNEATH, LaPORTA

DRIVES THROUGH KEARSE AND GOT TEN. THAT’LL BE ENOUGH FOR A FIRST DOWN WITH 1:30 AND COUNTING LEFT

DALLAS DEFENSE PLAYING SOFT. HERE’S ONE FOR LaPORTA AGAIN, AND A STRONG CATCH TO THE 40, AND THE LIONS ARE IN BUSINESS TO DRIVE THE BALL DOWN THE FIELD, SO YOU TAKE CHANCES YOU

WOULDN’T NORMALLY TAKE. >> Joe: THEY CLOCK THE BALL AFTER THE CATCH BY LaPORTA, AND NOW HE’S GOT AMON-RA ST. BROWN,

>> Joe: INSTEAD, NO CALL. IT’S THIRD AND TEN INSTEAD OF A FIRST DOWN BY PENALTY. GOFF, LaPORTA — ROOM TO RUN,

STILL GOING AND DOWN NEAR THE 11.

INCOMPLETE PASS, THIS GAME IS OVER.

BUT THAT AFFORDED THEM EXTRA TIME.

>> Joe: SECOND DOWN AND TEN. THERE’S ST. BROWN.

HEAD OF STEAM. TOUCHDOWN, DETROIT!

WOW! AND THEY’RE WITHIN A POINT.

>> Joe: DAN SKIPPER, AN EXTRA OFFENSIVE LINEMAN COMES IN. PLAY ACTION. END ZONE, THERE IT IS!

UNBELIEVABLE! THE TWO-POINT TRY IS GOOD, AND IT’S TAYLOR DECKER, PART OF THE OLD GUARD THAT WAS DELUDED AFTER

OFFENSIVE LINEMAN, REPORT. >> Referee: TOUCHING BY NUMBER

68. [ INAUDIBLE ]

>> Joe: SO THE CALL IS AN ILLEGAL TOUCH.

HE CAUGHT THE TWO-POINT CONVERSION.

THEY THREW THE FLAG AT THE END OF THE IT, AND NOW A FLAG ON PARSONS. THIS ONE’S PICKED, BUT PARSONS

CAME ACROSS. THERE’S A FLAG ON THE PLAY.

>> Troy: [ LAUGHTER ]

THEY DEFINITELY GOT MICAH PARSONS IN THE NEUTRAL ZONE. >> Referee: OFFSIDES, DEFENSE, NUMBER 11 HE WAS IN THE NEUTRAL

>> Joe: HERE WE GO. GOFF GETS RID OF IT.

INCOMPLETE! AND NOW THE COWBOYS MAINTAIN

THEIR LEAD. JAMES MITCHELL, THE TIGHT END,

SEED. WHAT A GAME.

ONSIDE KICK TRY IS HANDLED BY THE PERSON THAT IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN HANDLED BY BECAUSE THIS NIGHT BELONGS TO CEEDEE LAMB.

AND THEY STILL HAVE A SHOT AT THE NFC EAST. THEY NEED THE EAGLES TO LOSE ONE OF THEIR LAST TWO GAMES AND TO

WIN THEIR NEXT GAME, WHICH IS AT WASHINGTON IN WEEK 18. FRUSTRATING END TO THIS THRILLING GAME FOR THE LIONS WHO

HAVE A HOME DATE AGAINST THE VIKINGS NEXT WEEK. >> Troy: THIS WILL BE A TOUGH ONE FOR THEM.
