What has happened to Detroit's defense? In the last three games, the Lions are 24th in total defense, 26 in points allowed per game and 22nd against the pass. They are also just 29th in sacks. Denver's offense is still mediocre but their defense has stepped up. The Broncos are 1st in sacks in the last three games, 3rd in points allowed and 9th against the run. I like the points here in what looks like a field goal game. Take Denver +4.5
