00:00In Indianapolis, which was one of the spots DRS, I think a lot of people were looking
00:09at the Colts maybe keeping a game within margin as a great underdog cover team all year against
00:16the Detroit Lions with a potentially inflated number.
00:20No sir, the Lions pick up their 10th victory in 11 games this season and their ninth cover
00:26in 10 wins.
00:28Detroit is now 10-1 straight up and 9-2 against the spread as they go into Indy and win big
00:3624-6 covering as that 7.5 point road favorite.
00:41We were expecting some offense, hey it's Detroit who scored 52 the week prior and Anthony Richardson
00:47who led Indianapolis to 28 on the road against the Jets, nope, stayed well under 49 on the
00:53hook.
00:54What a turnaround too and this is the perfect storm for the Detroit Lions who their MO is
00:58always we got an offense that's going to score, we're going to play high scoring games
01:01and then flip it over on pro football focus once again, one and two in the NFL to fill
01:05it up the Eagles and the Detroit Lions.
01:07That's an impressive turnaround for both of those football teams and also you take a look
01:10at it yesterday, you saw the previous week before Anthony Richardson was really good
01:14against the Jets, measured, making the right reads, using his feet when appropriate.
01:18Yesterday goes right back into the doldrums, 11 of 28, no touchdowns, no interceptions,
01:24a passer rating of 60, a QBR rating of 48.3, the only thing that really did save him is
01:28he did rush 10 times for 61 yards but this is more of a credit to Detroit's defense,
01:33they are absolutely outstanding.
01:35Yesterday saw David Montgomery banged up, thank goodness he got the touchdown before
01:38he left but oh yeah, we have another guy, Jamar Gibbs, you can tote it, 21 carries for
01:4290 yards, no touchdown passes out at Jared Goff but still a passer rating of 93.4.
01:47This is one of those games where we talk about, same thing I said with Minnesota, kind of
01:50interesting they won the football game the way they did but I like to say it, this is
01:53one I like for the Lions.
01:54He didn't have to score 57 points but boy, that defense has been nothing short of spectacular
01:59here and it looks like it's going to continue to roll and quite frankly, they match up really
02:02well on Thursday against the Chicago Bears too.
02:04This is a great run for that Aaron Glenn defense here for the Lions.
