    Lions +700 Money Line Looking Good
    ML posted at Bookmaker at +700. Here's why I LOVE IT AND ALREADY PUT $150 AND MIGHT WAGER MORE:

    1) Lions simply due to win, played close games with Vikes and Bears

    2) In the NFL, anything is possible, as we saw again Monday night when the 49ers should og beat Arizona.

    3) The spread is +14, so counteract ML wager with point spread wager. Which means if Lions cover, you would break out even.

    4) Low risk, great reward. I'm loving this play!

    I can't back a team based on the "due factor", especially Detroit sir.

      The Lions have buried Venditto all year long. Stay away.

        at +700 what do you have to lose?? Detriot, after 7+ SU losses are 9-2 ATS. Take that for what it's worth. might be worth 700-1?? I just might have to drop a small play on that just for shit 's and .

          I got a feeling on this one, When was the last time an NFL team went undefeated? I think it was the BUCS. I like the coach, Rod Marinelli. He's staying positive. Maybe Culpepper can light it up with Calvin Johnson. Carolina could take them lightly. It sounds crazy, but +700 for an NFL game is absurd. The Panthers aren't the 07 regular season Patroits.

            I just don't see it happening. Marinelli is a joke. Lions have lost 16-17 straight pal.

                The only way I'd even consider taking the Lions this week is if Pat was on the other side of the game.

                  Yea they have a shot at covering the spread cuz carolina is truely the doctor jekyll/mr. hyde of the nfl, but at home they have played better and culpepper isn't exactly inspiring a lot of confidence just because he used to be good when he had randy moss

                      Last time I had a "feeling on this one" situation, I was kicked in the balls by some girl. I'm staying away from feelings.

                        Why this obsession with the Lions...They dont really seem to be the top dogs anymore and putting up a strong claim to be the number 1 team in the division!

                              I don't see it happening. Lions have a very good shot at going 0-16.

                                I feel like we get this thread every single week. Someone says that Lions Money Line is a good play because they are huge plus number.

                                You cannot look at a team and bet them because they are due and eventually they SHOULD win a game. Maybe this Lions team is really that bad...maybe they don't win a single game.

                                  The odd thing in my mind, is that I don't even think the Lions are going to COVER this weekend. I have backed the Lions a couple of times this year, and although they tend to keep the game close for 2-3 quarters, they tend to lose by JUST enough not to cover. The Washington game comes to mind as I type this. Granted the ML is very high, but I would use your money for a better play than that.

                                      I think if Detroit wins it will be at home.

                                      I would back them at +14.5, though.

                                          I'm up to $200 on the ML. I also got $400 on the Jets. Jets win, I'm throwing another $100 on Lions ML. This is the week boys, JOIN ME IN VICTORY! LOL

                                            Head Coach for Detroit is one of worst that ever coached

                                            Culpepper was only good way back because of Moss

                                            Culpepper sucks now and could not play for a college team

                                            Taking Detroit is one of worst picks I have ever seen on a forum

                                            Never ever bet bad teams

                                              I think its pretty clear that the 0-12 Lions will beat the 12-0 Titans on Thanksgiving.

                                                  i think there's more value to put a futures bet on them at 360,000 to 1 to win the superbowl

                                                    Let me tell you one thing, living in Detroit all my life and being a die hard Lion fan and having season tickets for the past 15 years, there is one thing that is never never put in the same sentence especially this year, the words LIONS WIN, there is never a good chance or a guarentee for the Lions they are just flat out terrible there MVP is there kicker, they have used 4 different quarterbacks this year who all all terrible in exception to Stanton, the line doesnt give them a chance to establish a running game or time to throw the ball, the WRs cant even get the ball to them no matter how good Calvin johnson is and the defense well i think they speak for themselves, while i rank on the lines as much as i do i LOVE the lions plus 14 Carolina is overated and the Lions have kept some games close this year, but i will be watching this and rooting for them all the way BOL GOOOOO LIONS

                                                      Lions on the ML

                                                      So are you taking Lions on the ML? No way, in my opinion. Jacksonville put up 30-some unanswered points on them last week and that's after coming off a loss to the Bengals! I think some of the better college teams could beat the Lions!

                                                      Save your money for a ML bet that you at least have a chance of winning.

He's staying positive. Maybe Culpepper can light it up with Calvin Johnson. Carolina could take them lightly. It sounds crazy, but +700 for an NFL game is absurd. The Panthers aren't the 07 regular season Patroits.

                                                          KC was +700 at SD this past Sunday and almost won. The Lions will win this year but I don't know if this is the week.

                                                              The Lions are not in the same league as the Chiefs

                                                              The Chiefs as least have some good players on their team. Gonzo is fantastic and whatever QB they play that week, Gonzo is always on the receiving end. The Chiefs would easily beat the Lions ... so it isn't wise to compare these two as equivalents.

                                                                Much like the John McCain +600....you can give as high of odds as you want, but that doesn't make it a good bet. I'm not wild about CAR, but the Lions are horrid.
