The Arizona Cardinals have won just three games on the season but pulled off the biggest upset of the season last week. A warm-weather team goes up to Lambeau Field where the Packers were 15-1 ATS in their last 16 home December games, and win in the cold and snow. Unfortunately, that sets the Cardinals up in a huge letdown spot. A team winning their previous game on the road as a +13.5 point underdog or more struggles to find the same energy in their next game, having gone 8-22 ATS. The Lions have had a 10-game stretch where they have had to go up against a team that is currently .500 or better on the season. It is the longest such stretch of any team in the NFL this season. I think the Lions finally smell an opportunity for a win, while Arizona is likely still celebrating their big win in Green Bay. Play on Detroit.
