Best Bet For Saturday (January 18th): NFL Predictions

The NFL playoffs have been chalky thus far, with the top four teams in each conference making it into this weekend’s divisional playoff round – save for one team. And that team’s reward for pulling off an upset is a date with the league’s best team tomorrow. For my best bet for Saturday, January 18th: NFL Predictions, we’re zeroing in on that game, which takes place tomorrow afternoon at Ford Field in Detroit.

Best Bet For Saturday (January 18th): NFL Predictions

Washington Commanders vs Detroit Lions

Start Time – 8:00 PM EST

This is the first time that the Washington football franchise has made it to the NFC Divisional Playoff round since 2005, so this season has to be chalked up as a great success for them. Unfortunately for the Commanders, the party ends tomorrow in Ford Field, as the hometown Detroit Lions are clearly the league’s best team (if you trust advanced stats).

The Lions are superior to the Commanders on both sides of the ball, and the home-field advantage is worth almost three points historically in Detroit. Their only two losses this season, however, happened in Ford Field, so that’s something Washington can cling to, I guess. But those L’s were to Buffalo and Tampa Bay, two teams better than Washington.

My spread for this game is Detroit -13, so the Lions are the play.

Best Bet: Detroit -8.5 (-112)

 

Best Bet Overall Record: 162-138 (54%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): $734.18
Return on Investment: 2%
