NFL - (363) Minnesota at (364) Detroit  Total 56.5

Sunday, January 5 – 8:20 p.m. ET / NBC

The first-ever meeting of two 14-win teams in the regular season is for the top seed in the NFC. The loser of this battle will have no worse than the second-best record in their conference but will not get a playoff home game unless they face another wild-card opponent in the postseason. With how great the Detroit offense is playing and how dreadful their defense is, the total catapulted from 51.5 all the way to 56.5. We’re not sure that’s the ceiling either, with the Lions 8-1 OVER at home after a win by six or fewer points and the Vikings 10-1 OVER having won eight or more out of their last 10 games. Update: As expected, a modest buyback to 56 at midweek where the total has stood since Wednesday afternoon. With this important skirmish in the Motor City, the OVER has to be the call.

Bet Percentage: Was OVER 82%, now 74%
