<body><div><h2>Live scores, highlights and updates from the Cowboys vs. Lions football game </h2>ARLINGTON, Texas -- The 10-5 Dallas Cowboys' final regular season home game of the 2023 regular season is about as intriguing of a night as any this year. Dallas hosts the 11-4 Detroit Lions, the NFC North champions, in prime time Saturday night with Hall of Fame head coach Jimmy Johnson finally being inducted into the team's Ring of Honor at halftime. The Cowboys are a perfect 7-0 at home this season and on a 15-game home winning streak overall, the longest active streak in the NFL and the second-longest in team history. Dallas is the first team in NFL history to score at least 30 points in each of its first seven home games of a season. Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott leads the NFL in touchdown passes (30) and touchdown-to-interception ratio (30-7), and wide receiver CeeDee Lamb leads the NFL in catches with 109, three away from breaking Michael Irvin's franchise single-season record of 111 set back in 1995. Detroit has taken on head coach Dan Campbell's smash-mouth mentality with its multifaceted run game. The Lions' 141.1 rushing yards per game rank as the third most in the NFL, and they have the personnel to wear any opponent down. Rookie running back Jahmyr Gibbs -- the 12th overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft -- and veteran David Montgomery can become the first duo in NFL history to each have 1,000 rushing yards and 10 rushing touchdowns in a season. Montgomery is up to 910 yards and 11 rush touchdowns on the year, while Gibbs has totaled 872 rushing yards and nine rushing touchdowns. The rookie, who leads the NFL in yards per carry this season (5.7), has erupted down the stretch with 10 touchdowns from scrimmage in the past nine games. Which team will come out on top in the battle of high-flying NFC title contenders? Stay tuned to the live blog below for real time, on-site updates and analysis. <h2>How to watch </h2>Date: Saturday, Dec. 30 | Time: 8:15 p.m. ETLocation: AT&amp;T Stadium (Arlington, Texas)TV: ABC/ESPN | Stream: fubo (try for free) Follow: CBS Sports AppOdds: Cowboys -5.5; O/U 52 (via SportsLine consensus)Updating Live (11) Micah Parsons has been vocal about how he has been officiated given he has only drawn three holding calls when rushing the passer this season, tied for 24th in the NFL. That doesn't quite compute with him given he leads the league in quarterback pressures (97), quarterback pressure rate (23%) and pass rush win rate (37.6%). Here are Parsons' thoughts on why he feels he is officiated different and how he would change the handling of holding and roughing the passer penalties.<figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=17tpjn_0qUubnej00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=17tpjn_0qUubnej00" width="670" height="272" ></figure>However, Detroit will have to figure out an approach to slow down Micah Parsons, who leads the league in quarterback pressures (97), quarterback pressure rate (23%) and pass rush win rate (37.6%). The battle between the Lions' stout offensive line and Parsons, defensive end Dante Fowler Jr. (19.6% quarterback pressure rate, third-best in NFL) and the Cowboys' NFL-best pass rush (46.5% quarterback pressure rate, best in NFL) could decide the outcome Saturday night. The run game with Gibbs and Montgomery sets up play-action throws for quarterback Jared Goff, whose 115.8 passer rating on play-action is the fourth-best in the NFL among qualified quarterbacks, to connect with LaPorta over the seam in the middle field of the field along with receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown, whose 106 catches are tired for the third-most in the NFL this season.Sam LaPorta, the Lions' second-round rookie, is on pace to break former Philadelphia Eagles All-Pro tight end Keith Jackson's rookie catches record of 81 given he has 74 catches for 776 receiving yards and nine touchdowns this season. LaPorta is also just the third tight end in NFL history with over 700 yards and seven receiving touchdowns as a rookie, joining Hall of Famers Mike Ditka (1961) and John Mackey (1963). The Lions' running backs, rookie Jahmyr Gibbs -- the 12th overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft -- and veteran David Montgomery, are, in McCarthy's eyes, the best running back duo Dallas has faced in 2023. It can become the first duo in NFL history to each have 1,000 rushing yards and 10 rushing touchdowns in a season. Montgomery is up to 910 yards and 11 rush touchdowns on the year, while Gibbs has totaled 872 rushing yards and nine rushing touchdowns in 2023. The rookie, who leads the NFL in yards per carry this season (5.7), has erupted down the stretch with 10 touchdowns from scrimmage in the past nine games. Up front, the Lions are loaded. Pro Bowl left tackle Penei Sewell is Pro Football Focus' highest-graded offensive lineman in the entire NFL (92.5 offensive grade) as well as the best run-blocking offensive lineman in the league (93.8 run-blocking grade). Pro Bowl center Frank Ragnow is PFF's highest-graded center in the league (89.0 offensive grade), while guard Graham Glasgow is the fifth-best run-blocker among offensive guards (85.5 PFF run-blocking grade). The Detroit Lions don't have any surprises on their inactives list either. Cornerback Cameron Sutton was reportedly a game-time decision, but he is active tonight. No surprises with the Cowboys' inactives tonight. Backup running back Rico Dowdle (ankle) didn't practice most of the week, and he is out. Big boost for the Dallas' offensive line as Pro Bowl left tackle Tyron Smith is back after missing last week in Miami with a back injury. Smith's 89.9 Pro Football Focus pass-blocking grade is the highest among all NFL offensive lineman this season among those who have played at least 100 offensive snaps. He has yet to allow a sack this season. Lions head coach Dan Campbell began his tenure in Detroit by saying his team was going to "kick you in the teeth, and when you punch us back, we're going to smile at you. When you knock us down, we're going to get up. On the way up, we're going to bite a kneecap off." Offensively, Detroit has taken on its head coach's smashmouth mentality with its multi-faceted run game. Its 141.1 rushing yards per game rank as the third-most in the entire NFL, and it has the personnel to wear any opponent down. At home, the Cowboys lead the NFL in scoring offense (39.9 points per game), turnover margin (+10), third-down conversion rate (53.6%), point differential (+171) and time of possession (35:11). They are also the only team in the league to win every home game entering their regular season finale tonight. The Dallas Cowboys are a perfect 7-0 at home this season and on a 15-game home winning streak overall, the longest active streak in the NFL and the second-longest in team history. However, the 11-4 NFC North division champion Detroit Lions are, in the words of head coach Mike McCarthy, their toughest home opponent yet. I think [the Detroit Lions] will be our biggest challenge of the year in my personal opinion. Some may differ as far as Philadelphia or the past games, but just based on what we've seen on video at the end of last week and yesterday, this is going to be a heck of a game. ... The reality of it is because it's the next one. I do respect what I've seen on film. I'm impressed with the program that they've built up there. Obviously it starts with (head coach) Dan (Campbell). ... I just think Dan has done a heck of a job. I think it's going to be a hell of a contest Saturday night." </div></body>
