NFL Odds
Atlanta -3
Total: 50.5 points
A lot of disrespect here for the Lions as Atlanta is favored by a field goal in Motown. The Falcons looked awesome last week in a win over Green Bay, at one point leading by 24 points in the third quarter.
Detroit might be equally impressive, coming back to win over Arizona in the opener and dominating for four quarters against the Giants. Matt Stafford threw for four touchdowns in the opener but did not have a great game against New York as the Lions actually ran the football well. Showcasing a diverse offense can only help the Lions get better.
There’s really been no Super Bowl hangover for Atlanta, but losing Vic Beasley will hurt. Detroit is known for playing well at Ford Field, having won 10 of the last 13 games there.
