Detroit beat Tampa Bay on the road last week and destroyed Kansas City at home during Week 2. Both these teams had winning records last season and were expected to continue that trend. The Buccaneers did pull off a win in Minnesota on Sunday to start the season 1-1.
As for the Lions odds to win the 2012 Super Bowl, that number was coming in at 15/1 and Gambling911.com was expecting the price to be slashed a bit, perhaps to 12/1.
“This team is looking very good,” noted Mary Montgomery of Gambling911.com. “They added plenty of talent during the off season and it’s all paying off now. Both wins this season were decisive, which will help boost their power rankings.
