Washington Redskins @ Detroit Lions
2* Free Play: Detroit +6.5
The Redskins proved again last week why you cannot play them as a favorite. They were favored by 10 points against the Rams and were barely able to beat them. They didn’t even score a touchdown! Washington is 1-6 ATS in its last 7 as a favorite. They travel to Detroit to face the Lions, a team who has lost 19 consecutive regular season games.
I can guarantee you that Detroit will be hungry to win this one and will give the Redskins a run for their money. The Lions may have gotten creamed in their first two games this season but they faced the Saints and Vikings, two teams that have a very good chance at winning their respective divisions and are considered to be Super Bowl Contenders by many. The problem with the Redskins is that they just can’t seem to be able to score points. They are averaging 13 points per game ranking 31st in the league and ranked 28th in that category last year. A team that is having this kind of trouble offensively should never be favored by this margin.
