Per FanDuel Sportsbook, the Steelers are 6.5-point underdogs to the Lions. Detroit is coming off a 41-34 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, sending them to an 8-6 record and on the verge of missing out on a spot in the NFC playoffs. The Lions have the fourth-best offense in the NFL in terms of total yards per game, but their defense is 21st in total defense.
