DETROIT -- The Detroit Lions continue to be favored in games against struggling teams, and this week will not be different.
Detroit opens the week as a four-point road favorite over the Cincinnati Bengals, per Bovada.
The Lions have been taking care of business in recent weeks, topping the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Chicago Bears to improve to 8-6. This week, they'll get a Bengals team that is 5-9 and lost to that same Bears squad 33-7 two weeks ago and then fell to the Minnesota Vikings 34-7 in a game that let Minnesota clinch the NFC North.
