The early wagering lines for the Detroit Lions in their Week 15 home date are about what you’d expect for the team with the NFL’s worst record hosting the first team to rack up 10 wins, the Arizona Cardinals.
Even with the Cardinals losing to the Los Angeles Rams on Monday night, dropping Arizona’s record to 10-3, the visiting Cards are still heavy favorites to beat the 1-11-1 Lions.
The line (as of 11:15 a.m. ET on Wednesday) has not moved since our friends at Sportsbook Wire posted these figures on Tuesday:

- Money line: Cardinals -900 (bet $900 to win $100) | Lions +570 (bet $100 to win $570)
- Against the spread (ATS): Cardinals -13.5, -110 (bet $110 to win $100) | Lions +13.5, -110 (bet $110 to win $100)
- Over/Under (O/U): 47.5, O: -110 (bet $110 to win $100) | U: -110 (bet $110 to win $100)
The 13.5-point line is the biggest point spread the Lions have faced all season. Detroit is 9-4 against the spread, with last week’s 38-10 drubbing in Denver the first game head coach Dan Campbell’s team did not cover the spread in over a month.
