BILLS @ LIONS (-6.5) - 43.5
October 05 , 2014

The Lions are playing absolutely great football right now.  And they get to face Kyle Orton this week.  And the Bills like to run the ball, but this is not the week to do so.  The Lions are only allowing an average of 81 yards per game on the ground.  The Bills have actually done a better job shutting down the run, only allowing 72 yards on the ground, but there is one major difference in this one.  The Lions do not run the ball that often and and completely focus their offense around Matt Stafford, Megatron, and the passing game.  The Bills allow an average of 266 in the air, and expect that number to rise after playing the Lions this week.  I don’t think that Orton will be the answer to get this Bills offense back on track, especially against the Lions.  This game has the potential to be a blow out if the Bills can not find a way to slow down Stafford.  Both of these defenses have held opponents to an average of less than 20 points per game, but I think Detroit puts up plenty more than 20 this week and covers the spread.  The Bills have surprised me at times this year, but I’m not expecting to be surprised this week.
