Leg #1: Lions -9.5
The first leg of our Commanders vs Lions Same Game Parlay is for the Lions to cover the spread as a 9.5-point favorite. The Lions have a rest advantage going into this game, having earned the NFC’s first round bye after finishing at the top of the conference standings. That should benefit them against a Washington team that had to play a game on the road last week that went down to the final seconds against the Buccaneers.
There is also the fact that the Commanders have been one of the most fortunate teams in the NFL over the last month and a half. Washington has won six games in a row, but they have faced several backup quarterbacks during that stretch. They were also the beneficiary of some late mistakes by the Bucs last week that paved the way for them to win a game that they could have otherwise lost. Expect Detroit not to give the Commanders anything in this game and for them to win with some margin.
Leg #2: Under 55.5
The next leg of our Commanders vs Lions SGP is for the game to stay under the total of 55.5 points. From a game script standpoint, we expect this game to be one that the Commanders can control on the ground in the second half. Detroit should take the lead pretty convincingly in the first half, which will allow them to focus on running the football and grinding the clock down in the second half of the game.
Additionally, the Lions are expected to have running back David Montgomery back for this game, as he has returned to practice for the Lions this week. The combination of Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs in the backfield will allow the Lions to salt this game away and to prevent the Commanders from doing too much offensively in the late stages of the game. That will help the game to stay under the total from Ford Field.
Leg #3: Jared Goff 250+ Passing Yards
Finally, we will take Jared Goff to hit 250 or more passing yards in this contest. Goff should rack up the vast majority of his passing yardage in the first half, as we expect the Lions to build up their lead over the first two quarters of the game. Goff has gone over this number in four of his last five games and has hit 250 yards or more in 10 games during the regular season. Look for him to do that again as the Lions should roar into the NFC Championship Game.
