Jared Goff overcame a career-high five interceptions to lead the Detroit Lions to a comeback 26-23 win and non-cover against the Houston Texans in the Week 10 installment of Sunday Night Football, capped by Jake Bates’ 52-yard game-winning field goal. Goff threw for 240 yards and two touchdowns as Detroit rallied from a 23-7 halftime deficit, scoring 16 unanswered points in the second half. The Lions improved to 8-1 SU and 7-2 against the NFL odds with their seventh straight win, marking their best start to a season since 1954. David Montgomery and Amon-Ra St. Brown contributed touchdowns, and Bates tied the game with a 58-yard field goal before clinching the win as time expired.
Despite throwing five picks, Goff maintained resilience, helping the Lions become the first NFL team to win after throwing five interceptions since 2012. Houston (6-4, 4-6 ATS) led early behind a balanced offense, with C.J. Stroud passing for 232 yards and a touchdown. However, Stroud’s two second-half interceptions contributed to the Texans’ scoreless half with Joe Mixon getting shut down not helping the cause. Rookie Kamari Lassiter led Houston’s defense with two interceptions, setting a franchise record, while Jimmie Ward and Henry To’oTo’o also contributed picks. The Texans had a chance to reclaim the lead late in the fourth quarter, but Ka’imi Fairbairn missed a 58-yard field goal, setting the stage for Bates to seal Detroit’s improbable comeback.
This one stung. The 26-23 final score saw us lose out position on the Lions by half a point, and we suffered the exact same fate with the under after the 49 combined points barely exceeded the 48.5-point target. Hopefully you were able to get in at the 49 close at PROLINE+ and were able to settle for the push. That first half was something! I watched in horror as the Texans erupted for their highest scoring first half of the season. That touchdown Detroit allowed right before the break proved to be the backbreaker making it impossible to cash both legs of the same-game parlay regardless of how the final 30 minutes played out. Win some, lose some—onto Week 11!

The Week 10 installment of Sunday Night Football takes NFL bettors to NRG Stadium where the Houston Texans will be faced with the daunting task of locking horns with a white-hot Detroit Lions outfit that invades the “Lone Star State” winners of six straight. Dan Campbell’s troops covered the NFL odds a sixth straight time last week in the elements at Green Bay to take a stranglehold of the NFC North, while DeMeco Ryan’s squad dropped their third game of the NFL betting season due to the injury-riddled offense once again having issues moving the ball against an inspired Jets defense. PROLINE+ opened this bad boy up with the Lions laying 2.5-points and the total set at 48.5. The number to beat has since swelled to 3.5 with Detroit aligned with 85+ percent of the bets and nearly 70% of the money. While the O/U is yet to move off the opener, total bettors look to be enamored with points hitting the board evidenced by over tickets being written at an 80% clip with 60+ percent of the handle riding the over train.

Detroit Lions vs. Houston Texans NFL Same Game Parlay:
How can one not come away impressed with the job Jared Goff and the Lions have done for the better part of the last six weeks? Since dropping a shocking 20-16 decision at home to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as 7.5-point NFL odds home favorites, Detroit has rattled off six straight victories against the @Cardinals, Seahawks, @Cowboys, @Vikings, Titans, and @Packers by the aggregate score of 216-108. Four of those six dubs occurred on the road where they racked up an insane +57 scoring margin! Though they just saw their four-game over streak bite the dust in Lambeau, Mother Nature had much to do with it due to the game being played in a driving rain storm with the 24 points scored proving to be the team’s lowest scoring output since Week 3. Regardless, everything is firing on all cylinders right now for what looks to be the team to beat in the NFC, and maybe even the entire league with the team’s odds of winning Super Bowl LIX at PROLINE+ all the way down to 5-1 after initially hitting the board 12-1.
The song doesn’t remain the same for the Houston Texans who’ve failed to live up to their preseason billing as a contender to represent the AFC in the big game. That being said, injuries have played a large role in the team sitting 6-3 straight up and 3-6 against the NFL spread through nine played games. Earlier in the year, it was Joe Mixon that couldn’t get on the field due to an ankle injury. Then, stud WR Nico Collins went down with a hammy and was put on IR. To make matter worse, Stefon Diggs was lost for the year after shredding his knee, and most recently, Will Anderson was knocked out of last week’s game due to an ankle injury that currently has him questionable to go in Week 10 betting action. The belief was that Collins would be able to give it a go under the Sunday night lights, but he’s yet to log a single practice at the time of this writing and is believed to not be ready to get back in the huddle.
If Anderson can’t go, Amon-Ra St. Brown and the return of Jameson Williams will have the Lions passing attack thriving once again. NFL bettors just saw what a 40-year old Aaron Rodgers was able to do with half of the Texans vaunted frontline pass rush on the sideline. Its third-ranked pass D relies heavily on the pressure the front seven musters week in and week out. Take that out of the equation, and it’s tough envisioning the home team preventing Jahmyr Gibbs and Co. from doing as they please. That paired with C.J. Stroud and Houston’s passing game hurting terribly right now leads me to believe Mixon gets extra burn in this one. The goal for the Texans will be too take the air out of the ball, dominate the time of possession battle, and keep the Lions offense on the sideline at all costs. With that, the under is my strongest position in this matchup along with the over of Mixon’s rushing yards prop. If forced to pick a side, there’s no way I’m stepping in front of the Detroit runaway freight train against a wounded opponent.
- DETROIT LIONS -3.5
- DETROIT/HOUSTON UNDER 48.5
- JOE MIXON OVER 82.5 RUSHING YARDS
