NFL Betting: Week 4 trends (Part 1)
The Detroit Lions have had eight head coaches since 1991. The one thing they have in common, other than being fired, is losing on the road against the Green Bay Packers.
The Packers have defeated the Lions 18 consecutive times in Wisconsin and are 13-4-1 ATS during that span. Detroit will try to break that streak Sunday when it travels to Lambeau Field.
The Lions actually have been very profitable when getting 10 ½ points or more, going 15-7-2 ATS.
Green Bay entered its Monday night game against the Bears in Chicago with an 8-1-1 ATS mark when playing on a grass field. The Packers also were 6-1-1 ATS in NFC North Division competition. The ‘over' was 23-10-1 when the Packers were playing an NFC rival.
Some other noteworthy Week 4 trends and angles appear below.
