Prime-Time First TD Bets — Sunday Night Football, Week 16
Alex Christenson
Some teams walked away from Week 1 of the 2021 NFL season happier than others. While expectations were low for the Detroit Lions, they held their own against the San Francisco 49ers. If nothing else, there was offensive competence worth being excited over.
Of course, losing 41-33 will still leave a bad taste in a team’s mouth. Detroit must recover quickly as they go to Green Bay to face a Packers team that looked lost in Week 1. Despite this, oddsmakers are expecting a blowout for Green Bay.
Can the Lions again put together a competitive game plan and performance to help us cover?
We’re going to break down the Lions’ Week 2 odds and betting picks.
