Detroit is favored by more than a touchdown at home over Las Vegas in primetime.
Las Vegas blew an opportunity as a road favorite in Chicago to have a winning record by losing to a backup quarterback who was making his first career start. Detroit was not expected to win in Baltimore, but the Ravens pummeled the Lions to end their four-game winning streak., Detroit is a hefty 8.5-point favorite at Ford Field. The over/under is set at 46.5 points.Las Vegas and Detroit Key Stats and Fun FactsOnly the Giants and Patriots average fewer points per game than the Raiders .
Since a 17–16 Week 1 win in Denver, Las Vegas is 0–3 on the road and has been outscored 92–39 in those games. That makes a trip to Detroit an even tougher task as Dan Campbell’s team is 2–1 in front of its fans with the one loss coming to Seattle in overtime in Week 2. Detroit has the second-best rushing defense in the NFL, allowing just 76.3 yards per game to opponents. Where teams have had more success against this unit is through the air, but this secondary is still better than any that O’Connell has faced.
This is the largest underdog position of the season for Las Vegas, which failed to cover the other two times it was an underdog of at least six points on the road against the Chargers and Bills . Conversely, the Lions have already covered a spread even larger than this one — they blew out the Panthers by 18 at home in a game they were favored by 9.5.
