Research shows that when two teams that will have losing records on the season play in Week 16, you want to take the points. So I'm going to do that here despite the Lions going to battle with David Blough. Drew Lock took a step back last week in the snow, and the Lions defense is actually getting healthier. That should serve them well against a Denver offensive line that is really banged up. The Broncos defense had been the strength of the team but they've given up 400 yards in three of their last four. I think Denver wins but the final score lands inside the number.

I like how the Broncos have played under coach Vic Fangio. Outside of the loss to the Chiefs in the blizzard, the Broncos have been solid on both sides of the ball. They face a Lions team that doesn't have any firepower offensively, which consistently puts its defense in disadvantageous situations. Take Denver.
