The Lions enter this game having surprisingly struggled a bit on offense so far. Running the ball has gone just fine, but has Jared Goff turned back into a pumpkin? The erstwhile Ram has crashed to 27th in EPA+CPOE composite. Some of his turnovers have been rather ugly.
If Goff has regressed and/or the league has caught up to Ben Johnson’s scheme a bit, then the Lions will fall short of lofty preseason expectations.
Still, good signs exist here too. Jameson Williams has emerged as a legitimate WR2 in his third season.
The major concerns here for Seattle will come up front on both sides of the ball. That’s where Detroit has excelled on offense (tops in the league in rushing EPA and Success Rate). And Aidan Hutchinson has been a terror on defense. He registered an eye-popping 4 1/2 sacks in Week 2.
Seattle will hope Charles Cross’ early leap (PFF grade over 90) is no mirage. The Lions pass rush brings a significantly higher level of play than either of the team’s first two opponents.

Adjusted for the sportsbook vig at best prices, Detroit has a 63.9% implied win rate.

DraftKings opened the line at Lions -4, and there hasn’t been any early movement on either the side or the total.
Given how high-scoring last year’s affair was (37-31 Seahawks), and the fact that these offenses are off to pretty strong starts aside from Detroit’s proclivity for turning the ball over, we may see this total catch some action to the over. At the same time, the scoring environment thus far has skewed heavily toward the lower end of the range through two weeks.
If the Lions’ offense can regain its juggernaut form against a questionable Arizona defense, their outlook here might improve, and we may see Lions odds inch up toward -6.
