On Sunday, the Detroit Lions will visit the Indianapolis Colts in an inter-conference matchup in the NFL. Detroit is playing some of the best football in the league this season, but Anthony Richardson played his best game of the season last week and will look to spring an upset of Detroit. The Lions are favored by 7.5 points in this contest and you can get our NFL predictions for Lions vs Colts below.
Lions Look to Continue Destroying Competition
Last week, the Detroit Lions put together one of the best performances in the NFL this season. They annihilated the Jacksonville Jaguars, beating them 52-6 in Detroit. Jared Goff bounced back nicely from his five-interception game against the Houston Texans in Week 10, throwing for over 400 yards in a game that was over before it started. This week, Goff will need to be more precise on the road than he was two games ago in Houston if the Lions want to win a ninth game in a row.
Colts Seeking Second Straight Win
The Indianapolis Colts also got a win in Week 11, beating the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium. Much-maligned quarterback Anthony Richardson was incredibly effective finishing drives with his legs in that game, which was Richardson’s best performance since Week 1 against the Houston Texans. If Richardson can avoid throwing an interception the way he did
Lions vs Colts Betting Pick
Anthony Richardson had a very productive game last week for the Colts. But there is a huge difference between beating a toxic New York Jets team and doing it against a Lions team that is on fire. We will lay the points with Detroit in this Lions vs Colts contest, as the Lions will continue to crush their competition on both sides of the ball while the Colts lack the consistent passing game to threaten them.
