Lions vs. Vikings

Minnesota a huge favorite here the line opened -8 now -10, -450, +360(DET), team totals 28.5(Minn), 20.5(Det), combined 49.5. The Vikings have won 7 in a row in this division matchup, part of the reason for the huge spread. The other reason the Lions defense has allowed 4.4 YPA this year. Cook has gone 106.7 YPG, and 136.7 YPG last 3 vs. Detroit. Cousins has put up great numbers this season, 280.3 YPG, 9TD, 1 INT, 105.6 passer rating. 3 losses by a combined 11 points for this team.

Detroit 0-4 first time since 2015, they finished 7-9 that year. The Lions pass defense allowing 10.6 YPA. Goff now has tied for most losses of his career in a row but his numbers aren’t bad, 275 YPG, 7 TD, 2 INT, a 96.8 passer rating. As you can see he hasn’t been the problem for this team. Everyone was expecting them to win last week but how many times in a row do you think they are gonna lose and lose by double digits? Goff’s record vs Minnesota(with the Rams), 1-1, a 125.3 passer rating, 5 TD, 0 INT, 345 YPG. That might be one to consider before you go laying -10 in a division game, yes I know Green Bay covered their number, and Chicago won by double digits as well. My prediction 30-28 Vikings.
