Xam’s Gem(s):
Raiders/Lions Over 45.5 Points -110
The Lions have been dominant on offense at times. In 3 games this year, the Lions have scored 31 or more points. 2 of those games came at home. Jared Goff has this offense humming. Jahmyr Gibbs had the best game of his career last week and should be set for another featured role tonight with David Montgomery out. The Raiders defense has also left a lot to be desired. They’ve giving up 27 points on the road on average this year, and just got shredded by the Bears and Tyson Bagent last week. Even with Amon-Ra St. Brown battling an illness, the Lions should be able to move the ball and put points up on the board. Meanwhile, Jimmy Garoppolo is making his return for the Raiders tonight after missing last week’s game due to a back injury. The Raiders are 3-4 coming into this game, and a win would be a huge boon for them. Expect to see a heavy dose of running back Josh Jacobs and Davante Adams. Jakobi Meyers is also coming along nicely as the 2nd receiving option. Las Vegas should be able to do enough offensively in a game that could see them trailing early and often.
