00:00Joe, we can make this game rather quick. The Lions are a 13.5 point favorite at home on Sunday
00:05against Max Jones and Jacksonville. The Jags a 2-8 football team. It's a very large number by
00:13NFL standards. In fact, the largest spread this season, but the Lions are an elite, not just
00:19football team, but cover team. Is it possible though for the Lions to cover as a two-tug favorite at home?
00:26Well, it's a big number, Ben, for any NFL game, right? It's just, it's over the top. But we've
00:34already seen the Lions with 30 or more point wins against, what, the Cowboys and the Titans in the
00:41last couple of weeks? I mean, heck, they got a quarterback throwing five interceptions and
00:45they're still winning games. No Trevor Lawrence for Jacksonville, although I thought the defense
00:51finally healthy, showed up last week against Minnesota and put on a show, but that was at
00:56home. Now you're going to get Jared Goff at home if he doesn't make the same mistakes.
01:03The team total for Detroit to me is the, is the, just bet it, just bet it and keep betting it.
01:09That's it. Forget about Jacksonville. 30 and a half is that number, Joe. It's the way that I would
01:14look as well. Oddly enough, the Jags are five and one against the spread as a dog this year,
01:21including three consecutive covers in each of their last two as at least a touchdown dog last
01:27week at home against the Vikings. And then with the help of Nick Sirianni and the officiating
01:32crew in Philadelphia the week prior.
