Can you please provide a new version of this?

After finally securing a win, Dan Campbell and the Detroit Lions are determined to maintain their positive momentum as they face the Denver Broncos in Week 14.

After their impressive 29-27 victory against the Minnesota Vikings, the Detroit Lions are now preparing for their upcoming journey to the Mile High City on Sunday. However, despite the team’s recent triumph, oddsmakers continue to label the Lions as underdogs for the 13th consecutive game week.

On Sunday night, Detroit was considered an underdog with varying odds between 7.5 and 8.5 points, depending on the Michigan sports betting site you consulted. During the summer, when the lines were initially released, Denver held a favored position with a 7.5-point advantage.

The point total for Detroit’s visit to Denver is established at 43.5.

After winning three out of their previous four games, the Broncos faced a 22-9 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday Night Football.

The game between the Lions and Denver will commence at 4:05 p.m. EST on FOX.

Detroit Lions at Denver Broncos: Week 14 NFL Odds

Lions dominating against the spread this season

Certainly, Detroit’s record of 1-10-1 is undeniably abysmal.

Despite this, the Lions have proven to be one of the top-performing teams in the NFL when it comes to covering the spread this season. Their victory against Minnesota on Sunday marked their fourth consecutive win against the spread.

Through 13 weeks, Detroit has achieved an impressive 8-4 record against the spread this season, which is currently tied with New England as the fourth-best in the NFL.

Denver trip is the extra game NFL added to the schedule

Due to the addition of a 17th game in their schedules this season, the NFL had to locate an extra opponent beyond the usual rotating schedule. This schedule previously involved playing each of the three division teams twice (six games), facing off against an entire division in each conference (four games per division, totaling eight games), and competing against an opponent with a similar placement in the other two divisions within one’s conference (two games).

Detroit’s upcoming game against Denver will mark their 17th match this year.

Next season, NFC teams will have the privilege of enjoying the extra home game on their schedule, a privilege currently enjoyed by the AFC.

After a strong 3-0 start, Denver faced a setback as they lost their next four games. However, with a current record of 6-6, the Broncos remain firmly in contention for the AFC playoffs.

The ongoing health situation of running back Melvin Gordon, who has been dealing with hip and shoulder injuries, has become a significant storyline to keep an eye on for bettors this week. Unfortunately, he was unable to participate in the game against the Chiefs.
