The Dallas Cowboys are set to take on the Detroit Lions, a matchup at AT&T Stadium in which the home team is a huge underdog.

A lot of that has to do with the fact that Detroit has one of the best rosters in the NFL. While the status of Dallas’ roster can be debated, whatever you think of it has certainly been influenced by all the injuries the team has been dealing with lately.

One of the many issues for the Cowboys on the injury front is that rookie first-round pick Tyler Guyton left last week’s win at Pittsburgh early with an injury. Guyton is active for the game against the Lions, but according to Kristi Scales of Dallas Cowboys Radio, he won’t start.

It is unknown whether Guyton’s decision was influenced by injury at all. When he left against the Steelers, the Cowboys kicked Tyler Smith out of left tackle, Tyler will play the position against the Lions and have TJ Bass fill in at left guard. Some felt that this group was the better one for the time being. Maybe that’s a factor.

Anyway, how the Cowboys will stack up against the Lions.
