The Buffalo Bills (10-3 SU, 8-5 ATS) attempt to get back on track after their first loss in two months as they visit the Detroit Lions (12-1 SU, 9-4 ATS). The Bills couldn’t slow down the Rams, which isn’t an encouraging sign as they try to get a handle on the Lions, who own the highest-scoring offense in the NFL.
Detroit does everything well, which could be a major concern for the Bills’ weak run defense. Buffalo usually wins by forcing teams out of the run and making them beat them through the air, but it won’t be able to do that in this game. The Lions aren’t the kind of team that falls behind early; they usually put up points in a hurry and bury their opponents.

Our Detroit Lions vs Buffalo Bills Prediction
The Lions have one free mistake in their pockets, but this doesn’t seem like the spot where they’re likely to use it. Detroit has had two tough weeks in a row against division rivals Chicago and Green Bay, but they faced the Bears on a short week and the Packers on their second straight Thursday game. For this game with Buffalo, the Lions have had extra rest and should be closer to healed.
The Bills can likely score with the Lions, but there’s nothing that says they can stop Detroit. The Lions tend to do what they need to do offensively, which led to them putting up 34 points on the Packers last week in a win. In their past five home games, only Chicago managed to hold Detroit under 30 points, and Buffalo looks unlikely to change that. Our prediction for Buffalo vs. Detroit is Lions -2.5.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
