NFL Odds, Picks & Predictions: Broncos vs. Lions
Broncos vs. Lions
There's more room on the Detroit Lions bandwagon than there's been all year, and now's the time for me to hop on. This feels like your classic buy-low spot on a Lions team that's struggled as of late, as well as a sell-high spot on a Broncos team that's definitely played better, but has gotten some serious turnover luck. Denver's defense is improving, no doubt. But over the last four weeks they've faced Joshua Dobbs, who is now benched in Minnesota, Dorian Thompson-Robinson in his second professional start, who is also no longer the starter, C.J. Stroud in a game they lost, and Easton Stick. They've also recorded 17 takeaways in their last six games, and while they certainly deserve credit, turnovers aren't always sustainable. And even with all of those takeaways, the Broncos defense ranks 19th and 28th in pass and run defense EPA respectively. Jared Goff is far better inside the friendly confines of Ford Field than outdoors, and this feels like a good spot to buy back in on a Lions team that'll surely be motivated after its lackluster effort in Chicago.
Pick: Lions -4
