Disclaimer
These contests are intended to be fun as you’re watching the game. It’s incredibly difficult to get a real edge as there are so few options, and in MME contests, there are often many duplicate lineups. One play or one penalty can change the entire outcome of the game.
Game Strategy
- Over/Under: 50.5
- Spread: Lions -3.5
- Lions Implied Team Total: 27
- 49ers Implied Team Total: 23.5
This is a game between two good offenses. Lineups should feature both sides with a lean toward the Lions. D/STs should not be considered.
One thing to keep in mind this week is that Detroit has nothing to play for. While Dan Campbell is saying all the right things, they are in a position where if they win next week they are the number one seed regardless of the outcome of this game. If they lose this week it does not matter. So, this could have them take more precaution than they otherwise would. Campbell is saying that won't happen, but it remains to be seen how they'll approach this week.
