    Lions

    8-3 to start the season, I'm on Detroit at -6.5. Matt Stafford doesn't beat good teams and he's inconsistent on the road, but he's been good against bad teams at home. Detroit's offensive line was hurt last year and they had no running game, but this year they are healthy and they added Blount and Johnson to go with Abdullah. Detroit's weakness on defense is inconsistent pass rush with the front four, but against a rookie quarterback with weak receivers Detroit should be able to blitz.

    Also like Detroit. Hopefully there’s some disagreement here on the forum. In my experience, seemingly always, when the forum has consensus in one way or another means a big fat L is coming.

    the detriment here is the head coach matt patricia. has no clue on how to run a football game as one since this is his first time ever doing it. patriot management did handstands when he bolted from the defensive coordinator position he held for too long at NE. somewhat inept at that job and in way over his head at detroit. does not relate to players a main concern.

    There's the catch. Some will argue that Jets are not as bad of a team as you might think.

    The Jets season win total coming into the season was 5.5, not sure how you can look at this roster and not think they are bad

    They are going to need to dig out of a two score hole here soon before they "pull away".

    I went to law school in Michigan, I remember watching Stafford before Detroit even had Calvin Johnson, he always seems to start slow
