I think the Cincinnati Bengals are on upset alert on Sunday as they travel to Detroit to take on the Lions. Yes, the Lions are 0-5 on the year, but Detroit is 3-2 against the spread this season and 2-0 ATS at home so far. The Lions have had to deal with heartbreaking losses all year, whether it be the just-short comeback against the Niners, the record-breaking Tucker field goal against the Ravens, or the last-second GW FG last week against the Vikings. That does not mean Dan Campbell's team has not been a tough team to face, and the Lions have already had a BRUTAL schedule facing the Niners, Packers, Ravens, Bears, and Vikings. At home against a young quarterback in Joe Burrow is a prime spot for Detroit to break its losing streak and find its first victory of the year. Jared Goff is certainly not my favorite QB in the league, but he has not been terrible this season. Goff has completed 66.8% of his passes for 1,303 passing yards and seven passing touchdowns this season. I expect the Lions to do enough damage offensively to at least be able to cover this spread at home. I will take the points with Detroit here. 

Ron’s Pick Detroit Lions: +3.5 -110
