There is no team that is LIKELY to win the SB and there is no player that is likely to win the MVP.
The best odds to win the SB are NE at 11/4. There are 19 teams with better odds to win than the Lions. The Lions are 50/1 to win the SB.
Bovada has odds for winning the MVP this year. Brady is the favorite at +400, which means you bet $100 and to win $400. AR is next at +700. Stafford is +5000 along with guys like Antonio Brown, Julio Jones, Philip Rivers, Sam Bradford, Eli, AP & Kirk Cousins. That is actually an intriguing bet. If I were to bet $100 I might pick a guy like Rivers, Cousins or Stafford to win $5K.
The odds are wrong. Nobody is smart enough to comprehend how talented the Lions and Stafford are. The odds are forever in the Lions favor this year
you should probably go put your life savings on the Lions to win the SB and Stafford to win the MVP...you are likely to be rich in February!
Atlanta and Carolina came out of nowhere to make the SB the last two season. The odds makers don't know anything
The Lions are incredibly talented. Tons of upgrades made from an already playoff team in 2016. Super Bowl run is probable (barring major crippling injuries and ref blunders of course)
getting in your excuses already
Valid reasons a lot of teams don't win championships. Healthiest relative team gets a better shot a lot of the time. And it depends on who gets hurt, not just number of injuries.
And im assuming you think we have the defense that carolina had that year (and got destroyed in the super bowl) or the offense that Atlanta had (and got outscored like 28 straight points to lose a super bowl).
We have both. Sounds like a super bowl winner to me
Perfect...then help me out here. Who is our:
Julio Jones?
Luke Kuechly?
Cam Newton?
Marvin, Tate, Ebron, riddick, Abdullah, fells, Roberts golladay over Julio, sanu, Gabriel, hooper, Coleman and freeman
Stafford over ryan or cam
Its not 1 for 1 for wrs. Its the group of weapons. Lions have better and more
Stafford over ryan all day every day
Let's compare the top 3 WR for Atl last year to the Lions top 3 last year.
ATL 177 catches on 259 attempts (68%) for 2641 yards (10.2 YPA) and 16 TDS
Det 213 catches on 333 attempts (64%) for 2591 yards (7.9 YPA) and 16 TDS
The Falcons WRs out performed the Lions
All weapons. Golladay is a ypc upgrade too over boldin. Tight ends, rbs, 4 WRs. Lions better
And Stafford is better than ryan
And lions oline is better, lions Dline, lions lb, lions secondary over Atlanta
Lions have better offense, defense and st than Atlanta
Atlanta had extreme offensive health too
