Prediction
The Lions are easily the best team in the NFC and have won and covered six in a row since a Week 2 loss to Tampa Bay. Despite not having their best defensive player, Detroit has held their opponents to 14 points or less four times during the winning streak. Houston’s offense has struggled without all of those great wide receivers they have and Stroud was awful last week. He was sacked seven times and I can see the Lions getting to him in this one and creating turnovers. I’ll lay the points with a Detroit team that is on a 22-7 ATS run away from home (4-0 this season).
Pick: Lions -3.5
