Detroit is 7-0 ATS in their last 7 games and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 Saturday games. The over is 11-5 in Detroit’s last 16 games. Carolina is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 December games. The under is 5-1 in Carolina’s last 6 games following an ATS loss.

Detroit is playing some of the best football in the NFL right now as they try to make a playoff push after starting the year 1-6. Carolina’s offense really struggled last week against Pittsburgh and will face a Detroit defense that is much improved from the beginning of the year. With how well Detroit is playing, I have to take them here.
