Quinshon Judkins has been the lead back since his Week 2 debut. Ford has held the 3rd-down/2-minute role, with rookie Dylan Sampson mixing in on occasion. I’m projecting Ford to keep that role for now, but there is a chance Sampson starts mixing in those situations a bit more going forward, which would only help this under. Detroit plays man at the 8th-highest rate, and Ford’s yards per route run has cratered from 1.35 vs zone to 0.08 vs man. That tracks since he is more likely to see a linebacker spy him rather than sit uncovered for a checkdown. Justice Hill is the only opposing RB to clear 10+ receiving yards against them so far. The Lions also blitz at the 4th-highest rate; Ford’s YPRR dips there too, and he is more likely to stay in and block. His floor is lower if Sampson nibbles at 3rd-down/2-minute snaps. I’m projecting Ford’s median closer to 11 yards with around 60% to stay under 13.5. If you only have access to 12.5, I would pivot to under 2.5 receptions at anything -120 or better.

The Browns threw the Kitchen Sink at the Packers last week, shut down Green Bay's offense, and pulled off the miracle comeback late to steal a shocking win. It's rare to see huge underdogs pull off wins like that in back-to-back weeks, but there's a lot of similar reasons to like Cleveland here. That Browns defense is so good, though Jared Goff at home in Detroit has been nigh invincible too. Similar to last week, if the Browns do keep it close, it almost has to be an under — so that's our play. I probably don't have to tell you Cleveland won't score many points. The Browns have scored 16, 17, and 13 points this season and actually have not topped 18 points anytime in their last 16 games not featuring Jameis Winston. Per Clevta, they're an ugly 15-0-1 to the team total under in that stretch, if you prefer to bet that way. I prefer the game under, because this is not just a bet against the Browns offense but also one on their defense. Jim Schwartz's unit was one of the best in the NFL two seasons ago and appears to be back in peak form. Cleveland ranks third in Defensive DVOA through three games and best against the run, and it's not like it's been bad competition — the Browns have allowed just 204 yards a game so far to offenses led by Joe Burrow, Lamar Jackson, and Jordan Love! Detroit's offense has looked like a monster the last couple weeks with the run game dominating behind a great offensive line, but that line saw precious little resistance against Bears and Ravens defensive fronts that have been among the league's worst thus far. It was a different story against a terrific Packers defensive front in Week 1, when the Lions ran for just 46 yards and scored only 13 points. Cleveland has the league's best run defense thus far. Rookies Mason Graham and Carson Schwesinger have made huge immediate impacts, and Myles Garrett is matching his DPOY form. Browns games this season have seen 33 points, 23 points, and 58 in the Ravens game — but that one was at 30 entering the fourth quarter before things really got away. Detroit is on a short week after a tough, physical Baltimore game, and this is an emotional letdown spot after such a big win too. Cleveland's defense is good enough to keep this low-scoring and close.

There is a value opportunity on Jerome Ford's receptions prop. THE BLITZ is projecting him to record 1.99 receptions, while sportsbooks implies 3.36. The model believes there is a 68% chance he records fewer than 2.5 receptions, so there is some value on the under at +128. Love THE BLITZ?

THE BLITZ is forecasting 12.49 rush attempts for Jahmyr Gibbs compared to 15.37 rush attempts implied by sportsbooks, so I believe there is some value here. If you take the under, you’d be projected to win 69% of the time, resulting in a 36% ROI. Based on a $100 wager, the expected value here would be $37.27. Love THE BLITZ?

Detroit Lions Odds, Bet Types, and Team History

The Lions enter the 2025 season with plenty of hype. They set a franchise record with 15 wins in 2024 and earned the NFC’s No. 1 seed. However, their season ended in the divisional round with a home loss to the Washington Commanders. Now, the Lions have their eyes on a Super Bowl run.

Optimism surrounds Detroit everywhere. Dan Campbell stands as the “it” coach of the moment, Aidan Hutchinson has delivered on his high draft status, Amon-Ra St. Brown has become the new receptions star, and Jared Goff has won over the city.

Detroit featured an electrifying offense last season, but the defense suffered a barrage of late-season injuries. Hutchinson missed more than half the year with a broken leg, and his return should deliver a massive boost to the team.

The biggest losses this offseason came on the coaching staff. Offensive coordinator Ben Johnson left to become the Chicago Bears’ head coach, while defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn took over the New York Jets. The question now is whether the Lions can remain one of the league’s elite teams without them.

Detroit opens the season on Sept. 7 on the road against the Packers. Oddsmakers set the Lions’ over/under for wins at 10.5.

Detroit Lions & WynnBET

The onsite offerings include brand ambassadors, live betting lines, and food and drinks. WynnBET also gains visibility through the Lions’ mobile app, social media accounts, preseason TV broadcasts, regular-season pregame TV programming, and in-game radio broadcasts.

Detroit Lions & BetMGM

BetMGM became the Detroit Lions' first sports betting partner in September 2020. BetMGM hosts Lions Bingo and Lions Perks, and its brand appears throughout Ford Field.

Betting on the Detroit Lions

Detroit Lions Point Spreads

Betting point spreads mean you wager on whether a team wins or loses by a specific number of points. Here’s an example:

  • Vikings +4.5 (+110)
  • Lions -4.5 (-110)

In this situation, the Vikings enter as 4.5-point underdogs against the Lions. If Detroit wins by five or more points, a $100 wager on the Lions pays $90.91. If Minnesota wins outright or loses by four points or fewer, a $100 wager pays $110 plus the original $100, for a total return of $210.

FAQ: Everything you need to know about point spreads

Lions Over/Unders

Over/under, also called the point total, is a wager on the combined scoring of a single game. Bookmakers set a number, and you can bet either the over or — you guessed it — the under. Here’s how it works:

Suppose the Packers play the Lions and the over/under is 45 points. A bet on the over wins if Green Bay and Detroit score 46 or more total points. A bet on the under wins if the two teams score 44 or fewer points. The wager can also push if the game ends with exactly 45 points scored.

FAQ: Betting the point total, explained | What is a push?

Detroit Lions Moneylines

Betting on the moneyline is simple—here’s an example:

  • Lions -125
  • Bears +105

The minus (-) and plus (+) signs show the favorite and the underdog, making Detroit the favorite in this matchup. You can better understand odds by thinking in $10 or $100 increments. A $125 wager on the Lions nets $100 in profit. For underdogs, it works the opposite way: with the Bears at +105, a $100 wager profits $105.

Bettors also use moneylines in parlays, which combine multiple bets into one. For example, if you bet the Lions moneyline and a -2.5 point spread, Detroit must win by at least three points for the bet to cash. The risk increases, but so does the reward with boosted odds. Use our Odds Calculator to figure out any bet amount or conversion.

FAQ: How to bet on the moneyline | How to make a parlay

Detroit Lions Props

Player props let you wager on a single player and tie the bet to one stat from the box score of a game or even the entire season. Many bettors find these wagers especially fun, especially if you already play fantasy football and enjoy the player-specific focus. Check out a hypothetical example below:

Jared Goff passing yards: 3,900.5

FAQ: How prop betting works

Lions Futures

Futures work much like prop bets, but they track performance over an entire season. Most futures focus on end-of-season success. Examples include:

  • Detroit Lions odds to win the NFC North (+160)
  • Detroit Lions odds to win the NFC (+500)
  • Detroit Lions odds to win the Super Bowl (+1100)
  • Jared Goff’s odds to win MVP (+3000)

If you believe the Lions turn things around and win the NFC North—or go even further—this is the market for you. For a full list of NFL futures, click or tap here.
