Detroit Lions vs. Atlanta Falcons Point Spread Released
Following the Detroit Lions Week 1 win over the Kansas City Chiefs, they opened as one of the biggest favorites in the NFL for their Week 2 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. Unfortunately, the point spread meant absolutely nothing as the Seahawks looked like the better team during a 37-31 OT win at Ford Field. Up next for the Lions is another home matchup, this time against an Atlanta Falcons team that just pulled off a nice win at home over the Green Bay Packers. The opening point spread for that game has been released, and not surprisingly, the Lions are favored again.
What is the Detroit Lions Vs. Atlanta Falcons Point Spread
The opening point spread for next Sunday’s game between the Lions and Falcons has been released, and, according to DraftKings, the Lions are a 4.5-point home favorite. The current over/under has been set at 47.
Why it Matters
After watching the Detroit Lions’ first two games of the season, it is very apparent that the point spread means absolutely nothing in terms of which team will win or lose the game. With that being said, the bettors love this stuff, and you can bet they are already analyzing where to lay their money.
TL;DR (too long didn’t read)
- Lions’ Rollercoaster Start: The Detroit Lions had fans riding high after a dominant Week 1 victory over the Chiefs. They entered Week 2 as one of the NFL’s big favorites against the Seattle Seahawks, only to plummet into a disheartening 37-31 overtime loss at Ford Field. It’s been a wild start for the Lions, to say the least.
- Facing the Falcons: Now, the Lions prepare for yet another home game, this time against the Atlanta Falcons. The Falcons are coming off a significant win over the Green Bay Packers, so they’ll be no pushovers. The opening point spread indicates that the Lions are once again the favored team at Ford Field.
- Point Spread Paradox: In the Lions’ early-season journey, one thing has become abundantly clear: point spreads seem to hold little sway over the actual outcome of the games. While bettors are poring over the numbers, the Lions have been anything but predictable on the field, making for a fascinating matchup against the Falcons.
Bottom Line – Lions Favored Again
