For the first time in five years, the Detroit Lions own a three-game win streak. The last of the trio of wins came in New York against a Giants team that entered the Week 11 matchup at 7-2.
Despite those impressive recent accomplishments, the Lions are still decided underdogs for Thursday’s Thanksgiving matinee at Ford Field against the Buffalo Bills. The Bills are 7-3 and coming off a win over Cleveland in Ford Field in Week 11, playing a home game in Detroit thanks to copious snowfall in the Buffalo area.
