The Detroit offense is averaging 26.8 points per game with 248.8 passing yards per game and 127.5 rushing yards per game.

The New York Jets are 7-6 this season after they lost to the Buffalo Bills by a score of 20-12 in their last game. New York out gained Buffalo by a total of 309-232, but turned the ball over two times in the loss.

Detroit is 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games and 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games against a team with a winning record. The over is 4-1 in Detroit’s last 5 games. New York is 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games and 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games following a loss. The under is 6-2 in New York’s last 8 games. The over is 4-1 in these two teams last 5 head to head meetings.

Detroit is playing very good football right now and is making a very late push towards the playoffs, while New York has lost three of their last four games. New York has some quarterback injury issues, but they will be going up against one of the worst defenses in the NFL. Detroit’s offense has been humming recently, scoring 31 points or more in four of their last five games. This is a big game for both teams, but Detroit has all of the momentum coming into this game. I like the Lions here.
