Detroit Lions First Win Odds

The Lions are also given decent odds to get their first win against the Bears, +475, Steelers, +500, Browns +600. So, despite the crazy short odds, oddsmakers do still have faith that the Lions will win a game this year.

The Lions have played a few close games this year. They just haven’t figured out how to win them yet. That’s not surprising considering how young their team is. It takes time to learn how to win. That said, at 0-7 with a difficult schedule ahead of them, a winless season is very realistic. Those odds are likely to change drastically if the Lions can’t get a win against the Eagles on Sunday.
