I think the Lions win fairly comfortable, but I do expect the Vikings to be competitive, 27-13. I know the score looks a little lopsided, but often times in the NFL the score isn’t indicative of how close the game actually is. The reason I see the Lions winning is their pass rush has been on a tear as of late, and the last time these two teams played the Lions had eight sacks on Bridgewater.
