To say confidence is high in Detroit would be an understatement. Fans and players alike are feeling great about the direction of this Detroit Lions (-1.5)
team, and it’s hard to blame them. We don’t get to witness a lot of Lions’ beatdowns the likes of what we saw on Sunday with their 40-14 blowout win, and it’s even rarer to see Detroit post five straight games of really good play.
That optimism has clearly seeped into the national betting audience, because although the 10-2 Minnesota Vikings (+1.5)
opened the week as slight favorites, that betting line has dramatically shifted in the last 24 hours, and now the Lions are 1.
