There will be a Black and Blue Division matchup today at Ford Field when the Detroit Lions host the Minnesota Vikings. Detroit might be 5-7 on the season but they are a lot better than their record reflects. The Lions are coming off a 40-14 pummeling of the Jacksonville Jaguars and have won 4 of their last 5 with their only loss to the hands of the best team in football, the Buffalo Bills, in a close one, 28-25. Minnesota is 10-2 but I am still not sold on them. They have a defense that is shaky at best and Jared Goff should expose that today. Goff has thrown for 3,022 yards with 19 TDs and the Lions are averaging 369.1 yards per game.
