Detroit, finally, is getting healthier, as running back David Montgomery appears set to make his return. He makes the Lion offense that much more dangerous, and opens the play action passing game even more for Jared Goff. The statuses of guard Kevin Zeitler and corner Terrion Arnold are still unclear, though coach Dan Campbell sounded optimistic. The Commanders have been a great story, but the Lions are a far stronger team.

Washington’s Cinderella season ends in Motown. The Lions defense is going to have its hands full against Jayden Daniels, but they will make some big stops in front of their home crowd. The Lions physicality upfront will also cause problems for the Commanders.

This game has the potential to steal the show. Jayden Daniels continues to deliver and he’s able to play a great game in a hostile crowd. But in a back-and-forth affair, it’ll be whoever has the ball last, and that will be Detroit picking up in the win in a classic.
