The betting public is all over the Detroit Lions on the spread at a nearly 70 percent clip. This is a good opportunity for the Lions to reach .500 after a slow start against a team that has only won a single game this season.

Detroit is just 2-8 Against The Spread as a road favorite of between 3.5 and 7 points since 1993 although this is somewhat offset by Jacksonville being 5-10 over this same period as a home underdog within this range.

Against AFC South opponents, Detroit is only 1-8 Straight Up and 3-6 ATS.

More trends to consider before betting on the Lions vs. Jaguars: 

The Lions are 8-21-1 ATS in their last 30 road games vs. a team with a losing home record.

The Lions are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games after accumulating more than 250 yards passing in their previous game.

The Lions are 2-6-1 ATS in their last 9 games following a S.U. win.

Detroit is 2-6-1 ATS in their last 9 road games.

The Jaguars are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games following a S.U. loss.

The Jaguars are 4-12 ATS in their last 16 games after accumulating more than 250 yards passing in their previous game.

For whatever the reason, the Jaguars are just 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games in Week 9.
