are back at home in Week 5, hosting the Carolina Panthers (+8.5) in a game that may mean more than it appears on the surface.
With the Lions (3-1) riding high atop the NFC North and the Panthers (0-4) yet to win a game, the folks over at DraftKings, are favoring Detroit with a Lions -8.5 spread. This is the biggest spread in the Lions’ favor since Week 10 of the 2017 season when Detroit was a 10.5-point favorite over a Cleveland Browns (+1)
team that would go 0-16.
