The Detroit Lions are the class of the NFL as they own a 9-1 record and appear destined to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl.
The Lions have shown they can win in a multitude of ways, though the thing driving their success remains their offense.
Detroit is able to overwhelm opponents in a hurry, as it has the best running game in the league coupled with an explosive passing game led by Jared Goff, Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams.
Head coach Dan Campbell is doing an excellent job keeping his team ready every week, and the Lions get another good opportunity to add another win when they take on the Indianapolis Colts in Week 12.
Detroit is the betting favorite to defeat Indianapolis, and for good reason, as the latter has been inconsistent on both sides of the ball this year.
However, the Lions’ defense will take a hit with an injury in the secondary.
“Lions downgraded CB Terrion Arnold to out for Sunday’s game at Indianapolis due to his groin injury. Arnold will not travel with the team to Indianapolis,” ESPN insider Adam Schefter wrote on X.

Arnold has been a steady presence for the Lions, so his absence will be noticed, though it might not matter too much given the matchup.
Colts QB Anthony Richardson is slated to start, and his inaccuracy as a passer very well could be the difference.
