Lions vs. Packers: NFL Week 18 Early Odds, Picks & Predictions (2022)
The final week of the NFL regular season is here, and there are still three playoff spots up for grabs. Additionally, seeding, including who will get the first-round bye in both the AFC and NFC, will be finalized during Week 18. With so many teams playing for nothing and others in desperate need of a win, Week 18 may be tricky to navigate from a betting perspective.
Here is a look at some early Week 18 lines and where you should expect them to move. And here’s a closer look at Lions vs. Packers.
Lions vs. Packers: NFL Week 18 Early Odds, Picks & Predictions (2022)
Two teams that were left for dead early in the season now have a chance to sneak into the playoffs as the NFC’s seventh seed. For the Packers, it’s straightforward. If they win, they’re in. The Lions need to win, and the Seattle Seahawks to lose.
The Lions have been a cover machine this season, winning against the spread in 11 of their 16 games. They have covered four of their last five games and have won six of eight. But the Packers have won four in a row, and Aaron Rodgers has a chance to silence his critics by beating a division opponent he has owned throughout his career. These might not be the same-old Lions, but the Packers should see a lot of support as kickoff approaches.
Current Line: Packers -4.5
Predicted Final Line: Packers -6
