Lions Betting Preview
It took 30 years but the Detroit Lions finally won another playoff game, playing host to the LA Rams and their old quarterback Matthew Stafford last week.
And while Stafford found plenty of success passing for 367 yards and 2 TDs versus the Lions 27th-ranked pass defense, it was Detroit and Goff getting the last laugh edging out a 24-23 victory.
Goff, having previously been traded by the Rams for Stafford, got the win over his old team and passed for 277 yards and 1 TD himself in the win.
Amon-Ra St Brown who was second in catches and third in yards for receivers this season had a seven-catch and 110 yard day. While David Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs each had a rushing score for the Lions.
Almost all of the scoring came in the first half with Detroit leading 21-17 at the break. That s both good from a defensive standpoint, but poor offensively that they only managed three second half points.
Detroit was the only team to win but not cover last week. But they have now won four of five games and are 4-1 ATS in that time.
