Game script: what to watch

If the Lions fall behind early, Jared Goff's passing volume usually rises. Jared Goff has averaged 301.8 passing yards over the last 10 and cleared 250+ pass yds in 8 of the last 10; check the passing-yards and alt-line hit rates on the player page.

If the Vikings build a lead, they tend to lean on the run late. Aaron Jones Sr. has averaged 68.4 rushing yards over the last 10 and cleared 40+ rush yds in 8 of the last 10.

A trailing offense throws more, so Amon-Ra St. Brown (95 receiving yards per game over the last 10) is the target to watch if the Lions are chasing points.

If a favorite goes down early, live lines and alternate spreads move fast. That is a moment to research, not to chase a loss.
