5 NFL prop bets to make on the Detroit Lions
Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated at 11:40 a.m. ET
Lions QB Matthew Stafford Over 1.5 passing touchdowns (-128)
Stafford threw just one touchdown in Week 1, but he had another go right through the hands of rookie RB D’Andre Swift. That touchdown would have won the game for Detroit. Expect the Lions to throw a bunch against Green Bay and for Stafford to eclipse 1.5 passing touchdowns.
Lions QB Matthew Stafford Over 22.5 completions (+100)
Nfl Best Bet Week 2
If you believe the Lions are going to be down early in this game, consider taking Stafford to complete more than 22.5 passes. Stafford has accomplished that feat in each of the last four games he has played in and his current roster just isn’t as talented as Green Bay’s. Look for Stafford to complete around 25-26 passes as he will try to keep this game competitive.

Lions WR Danny Amendola Under 52.5 receiving yards (-115)
Best Nfl Prop Bets Week 25
Amendola had a big Week 1 performance against the Bears, catching five passes for 81 yards from the slot; however, the Packers are much better than the Bears at covering slot receivers with multiple guys who can match up with Amendola. Look for him to see a few targets, but for players like Marvin Jones and Quintez Cephus to see an uptick in targets.
Lions WR Marvin Jones Over 59.5 receiving yards (-112)
Player Prop Bets Nfl
As mentioned above, Jones is a player that could see more work than he did in the team’s first game of the season. He caught just four passes for 55 yards despite being the team’s de facto No. 1 receiver with Kenny Golladay sidelined by injury.
If Detroit is going to stay competitive in this game, they need Jones to have a big game. Look for him to exceed 60 yards and potentially get to 100 in this NFC North showdown.
Lions WR Quintez Cephus to score first Detroit TD (+1200)
If you are looking for a fun long-shot bet, consider taking the Lions’ rookie to score the first touchdown of the game. With Golladay out again in Week 2, Cephus will draw the start opposite Jones.
With his great size and ball skills, Stafford could look to target the rookie near the end zone. At +1200, Cephus is a decent bet to score the first points of the game for the Lions.
