Detroit Lions - NFL Betting Analysis
This week, the Lions will be looking to get back to winning ways, as they fell to the New England Patriots by a score of 29-0 in week 5. Detroit entered the game as 3.0 point underdogs on the spread. Together, the two teams combined score remained below the over-under betting line of 46. The Lions were not able to make a comeback in last week's game, as they trailed New England by a score of 26-0 heading into the final quarter. Through 5 games, the Lions have an ATS record of 3-2. So far, they have an over-under record of 4-1. This week's betting total of 48.0 is right in line with their previous games.
As the Lions prepare to take on Dallas, they have played well on offense, ranking 3rd in points per game at 28.0. Even though they have a tough matchup against the league's 3rd ranked defense, look for Detroit to continue their strong offensive play. This season, Detroit has been one of the better passing teams in the league, averaging 260.4 yards per game through the air. Although the Cowboys' defense has been able to limit opposing teams in the passing game, Detroit should still be able to continue to generate big plays through the pass. On the ground, the Lions should be in line for a good performance, as they are one of the better rushing teams in the league and are facing a defense that has its problem stopping the run.
Dallas Cowboys - NFL Betting Analysis
Heading into week 7, the Cowboys will look to get back in the win column, as they are coming off a 26-17 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Not only did Dallas lose the game, they also failed to cover the spread. Going into the game, the team was 7.0 point underdogs. Going into the game, the over-under total was set at 42 points, which the teams surpassed. The Cowboys were not able to make a comeback in last week's game, as they trailed Philadelphia by a score of 20-10 heading into the final quarter. Through 6 games, the Cowboys have an ATS record of 4-2. So far, they have an over-under record of 2-4. This week's betting total of 48.0 is higher than the line in their previous games.
As the Cowboys prepare to take on Detroit, they are ranked 23rd in points per game at 18.33. Look for the team to put together a strong offensive performance vs a Lions defense giving up 34 points per game. Although the Cowboys come into the game ranked just 27th in pass yards per game, they will benefit from facing a Detroit secondary that is vulnerable through the air. We expect Dallas to have an above average performance in the passing attack. On the ground, our projections show that the Cowboys offense will have its problems. Even though they have a decent matchup against Detroit, look Dallas to come up with fewer rush yards than their season average of 118.83.
