For the majority of the week, the good folks over at BetMGM didn’t set a betting line for the Detroit Lions (5-8) Week 15 matchup with the Tennessee Titans (9-4) — presumably due to the uncertainness of quarterback Matthew Stafford’s game availability.
After a week of not practicing because of a rib injury, Stafford was listed as questionable and appears headed towards a game-time decision.
BetMGM doesn’t appear confident he will play and after designations were assigned, they set the betting line at Titans -10.5 points. Less than 24-hours later, the line moved to 11.5-points, indicating the betters also believe Stafford won’t play.
BetMGM has various bet lines to wager on, but here’s a look at the basic concepts most would be interested in, including the Moneyline, points spread, and over/under.
Moneyline
| Lions | +500 |
| Titans | -650 |
Spread
| Lions | +11.5 | -110 |
| Titans | -11.5 | -110 |
Over/Under
| Total points scored | Over | Under |
| 51.5 | -110 | -110 |
Typically there has also been a considerable amount of player prop bets added throughout the week, but with this game being set late, those have yet to surface. If these interest you, keep an eye on BetMGM through the weekend to see if they are added.
