NFL Week 1 RECAP for NFL Internet Wagering: St. Louis Rams at Detroit Lions

The Rams will travel to Ford Field in Detroit to take on the Lions in what many analysts think will be a shoot out. These two teams both play on artificial turf which means these two teams have the ability to move up and down the field quickly. Rams new head coach Jeff Fisher will take on one of his former pupils in Jim Schwartz. Since Schwartz became the head coach of the Lions, the Lions have steadily improved while leading the team to their first playoff appearance in quite some time. Matt Stafford and Calvin Johnson will certainly light up the field as this duo poses a threat to the entire NFL. Defenses simply don’t have an answer for Stafford and Johnson and it will be interesting to see if the Rams can come up with an answer for them on defense.

Jeff Fisher is a defense first coach and he will try to force the Lions into making mistakes. If the Lions begin making mistakes, Jeff Fisher will look to capitalize and turn those mistakes into field goals or touchdowns. The Lions should be the favorites in this game although it is hard to count out the Rams. Their leadership change may be the spark the team needed in order to become competitive in the NFL again for your NFL bets.
