The Detroit Lions dominated the Dallas Cowboys with a resounding 47-9 victory at AT&T Stadium on Sunday, marking the Cowboys' fourth consecutive home loss. The defeat, which occurred on team owner Jerry Jones' 82nd birthday, was particularly disheartening as the Cowboys were outperformed in every phase of the game. The Lions led 27-6 at halftime and extended their lead in the second half. This 38-point loss is the worst home defeat during Jerry Jones' ownership. In their last four home games, the Cowboys have trailed at halftime by a combined 110-35. Additionally, Lions' defensive end Aidan Hutchinson suffered a significant injury and will remain in Dallas for treatment. Coach Dan Campbell confirmed Hutchinson is in good hands but will be out for a while.
