Lions vs. 49'ers

I will take the Lions -4.5 and ride the wave.

Haters gonna hate.

i agree, im not a big fan of the 49ers, i think they arent as good as their record would dictate. I think Lions should win this game and will cover.

lions are hot, but they are not good, they are a decent team...

didn't realize how pathetic the bears o-line was...

barely beat bucs

beat chiefs

needed a choke by vikings 2h

needed a choke by cowboys 2h

beat a pathetic o-line of the bears (2 of 3 TDs scores were on plays where the safety just played horribly, was out of position/wrong angle, etc) sadly, lions were fortunate to escape with a win last night...

good situation to take 49ers here (looks like sharps have already hopped on it)... lions off a big mnf game (hangover)... and i think lions are overhyped as they have played NOBODY

Leaning heavily on the UNDER here. That Lions offense isn't marching up and down the field against the NINER D imo.

I love how no one wants to give the Lions credit for the 5-0 start. First it's their schedule, then it's the Cowboys and Vikings collapsing and not the Detroit coaching staff making adjustments. The Cowboys should have just kneeled on the ball and blah, blah, blah. Now it's the Bears offensive line being shitty, not the Detroit D-Line being good.

I love all the reasons except maybe for the fact that the Lions, after a decade of futility, might have finally found a blueprint for success and might actually be good.

I love all the hate and excuses, I hope it doesn't stop. 9 straight wins dating back to last year, including beating Green Bay. But then everyone wants to make the excuse that Rodgers was knocked out of the game without even mentioning that Stafford was out most of the season.

Blah, Blah, Blah, excuses, excuses, excuses.

Niners are for real. The D will keep it close, this game is decided on a fg.

Niners cover

What is the total? I think the under might be a good play.

The bookies will love you if you do this

Not to mention that getting a win on the road in the NFL is a good win...no matter how or by how much.  The Lions first 3 out of 4 games this season were on the ROAD!  I agree, excuses, excuses!
