If you were anything like me, your eyebrows raised
considerably when you saw the 5-7 jump out as the betting
favorite against the 10-2 for their divisional showdown
in Week 14. After all, this makes the Vikings the first
team since the 1970 merger to be eight or more games over
.500 and still be considered an underdog against a
jersey/james-paxton-jersey">James Paxton Jersey club
with a losing record (excluding teams resting
starters).This momentum swing came after the Vikings
initially opened as a 2.5-point favorite before Week 13.
At Caesars Sportsbook, Minnesota's advantage started to
dwindle last Sunday when the line dipped to Vikings -1 by
around kickoff of "Sunday Night Football" and after both
the Vikings and Lions pulled out wins in their respective
matchups. By noon on Monday, the script was flipped in
favor of Detroit, which is now laying two points in this
head-to-head."I really don't
jersey/mariano-rivera-jersey">Mariano Rivera Jersey
even know how to respond to that," said Lions head coach
Dan Campbell when asked about his team being favored over
a Vikings team that simply needs a win or tie to lock up
the NFC North on Sunday, via . "I'm shocked by
that."While Campbell may be shocked like most folks, it's
not as surprising once you dig a little deeper on these
two teams. Featured Game | Detroit Lions vs.

MIN Particularly with the Lions, they have been
playing solid football as of late. They have won four
jersey/jacoby-ellsbury-jersey">Jacoby Ellsbury
Jersey of their past five games (covered in all
five) and that includes a 40-point avalanche over the in
Week 13. While that offensive display was impre sive,
it's really been Detroit's defense that has sparked the
turnaround. Over the past five weeks, the Lions are
allowing just 19.8 points per game and the second-lowest
pa ser rating in the league. Through the first six weeks
of the season, they were allowing both the highest
points-per-game average and highest pa ser rating in the
league. Detroit is also tied for the league lead in
takeaways over this stretch.Moreover, the Lions have been
a fantastic team to bet on under Campbell's watch. The
team is 19 yankees-jersey/miguel-andujar-jersey">Miguel Andujar
Jersey -10 ATS under Campbell, which is tied for
the second-best ATS record since the start of last
season. Detroit has also covered seven straight
divisional games, including a 3-0 ATS record this
season.Those figures alone make Detroit a fascinating
team, but there's also the another side to this coin: the
Vikings. Despite sitting at 10-2 on the season
and on the doorstep of clinching the NFC North, Minnesota
might be a chunk of fool's gold. According to Football
Outsiders, the Vikings have the lowest DVOA (21st) for a
10-2 team in history. The team's +10 point differential
this season is also the worst by a 10-win team through 12
games in league history.The Vikings Achilles heel thus
far -- and what could prove to be a fatal flaw in this
matchup and going forward -- has been the secondary.
Minnesota's defense is allowing 283.6 pa sing yards per
game and 8 yards per attempt entering Week 14, which both
rank 32nd in the NFL. Meanwhile, has already tied the
most wins in a season for his career, but ranks 18th or
worse in the league in completion percentage, TD-INT
ratio, and pa ser rating.So, while the records between
these two division rivals may tell one story, the line
for this yankees-jersey/david-robertson-jersey">David Robertson
Jersey head-to-head and the nitty-gritty stats
tell a different one entirely.
