The first 4:25 game of the Sunday season takes us to Green Bay, as the Packers play host to the Detroit Lions. With both coordinators departed for Detroit, questions remain about whether the Lions can repeat their 15-2 season. Let’s dive into my Lions vs Packers Same Game Parlay picks at +700 odds. Also, be sure to check out all of our NFL picks for EVERY GAME in Week 1 and throughout the entire season.
Lions Moneyline (+124)
Jameson Williams to record 50+ receiving yards (-124)
Amon-Ra St. Brown to score a Touchdown (+140)
Lions vs Packers Same Game Parlay odds: +700
Detroit Lions moneyline over the Green Bay Packers (+124)
The Lions are more than happy to play in Green Bay in September before the snow comes down. There’ll be no weather concerns come Sunday, which bodes well for a Lions offense that can fly around the field and is filled with weapons on the offensive end. The big question mark is how similar the offense looks to when Ben Johnson was in town, now the head coach in Chicago.
Turning to the defensive side of the football, Detroit returns Aidan Hutchinson, who headlined the Lions laundry list of injuries last season. Hutchinson, one of the best defensive players in all of football, is +750 odds to win the AP NFL Defensive Player of the Year. Align that with a strong secondary, and I’ll take the Lions on the moneyline on the road at plus money.
Jameson Williams to record 50+ receiving yards (-124)
Boom or bust. That was Jameson Williams m.o. last season as he had eight games of 80+ receiving yards, while registering five games below 40 receiving yards. He tied the league lead with five receptions of 50+ yards. He is one of the best at taking the tops off the defense. With Amon-Ra St. Brown underneath, plus a deadly duo in the backfield, look for Williams to eclipse the 50-yard mark in Week 1.
Amon-Ra St. Brown to score a Touchdown (+140)
To conclude our Lions Packers Same Game Parlay, I’m backing Amon-Ra St. Brown to find the endzone. Jared Goff looked St. Brown’s way a ton last season – Especially in the redzone. St. Brown registered 31 targets in the redzone, trailing Ja’Marr Chase amongst wide receivers for the league lead.
Newcomer Micah Parsons headlines a solid defensive group for Green Bay, also featuring Xavier McKinney at safety. But with the Lions implied team total of 22.5, St Brown to score a touchdown at +140 odds is too hard to pass up – Especially with this Same Game Parlay only coming in at +521 while DraftKings is at +700. Don’t forget DraftKings is also offering a 20% profit boost on any 3-leg NFL parlays.
