Saturday night takes us to the motor city where the Denver Broncos face off with the Detroit Lions in a crucial week 15 matchup. There are plenty of playoff implications on the line in this Saturday night game as they kickoff week 15 of the NFL season. The Denver Broncos will put themselves in a position to make the playoffs with a victory and Detroit can put themselves on the doorstep of clinching the NFC North division with a victory here on Saturday night at home against the Denver Broncos as well. This has the potential to be one of the best games of the weekend as these two solid teams face off here on Saturday night at Ford Field.
The Denver Broncos had a slow start to the regular season, but they picked it up throughout the middle part of the year, and they now find themselves in a position to make a playoff appearance in the AFC. However, they will need to pick up some wins throughout the last four weeks of the regular season, and a victory in this game would put them in a great position heading into the last three weeks of the year if they can pick up the victory here on Saturday night against Detroit. They come into this game one game above the .500 mark with seven victories, their first 13 games of the regular season and a win here would put them into one of the three wildcard spots in the AFC. Heading into the last three weeks of the year.
Russell Wilson has been solid for the Denver Broncos throughout the first 13 games of this season and he will look to record another quality performance on Saturday night against the Detroit Lions. They will need to play some of his best football of the season if they want to leave Ford Field with a victory here on Saturday night and he will have to protect the ball throughout this game if Denver wants to get the job done as well. After losing to the Houston Texans a couple weeks ago, Denver bounced back in a big way with a blowout victory over the Los Angeles Chargers to win their fourth game and their previous five contest and they have plenty of momentum coming into this game on Saturday night against the Detroit Lions.

The Detroit Lions have put together a pretty successful season, and they look to be on the brink of making their first playoff appearance in quite some time. They come into this game with nine victories through their first 13 games of the regular season and a victory. Here in this game would also put them on the doorstep of winning the NFC North division for the first time in decades. They have been very consistent throughout the season and they’ve been a very hard team to beat at home and they will look the whole truth to that narrative with another quality performance here on Saturday night against the Denver Broncos. Detroit will look to bounce back here in this one after dropping their previous game to the Chicago Bears in one of their worst performances of the season.
A victory in this game, for the Detroit Lions would put them on the doorstep of winning the division, and put them on the doorstep of clinching a playoff spot heading into the last three weeks of the regular season as well. This has been a long time coming as their rebuild has been something special throughout the last couple of seasons, and now they are finally seeing the fruits of their labor payoff throughout this season. They will look to pick up a solid victory against a quality Denver Broncos team, who are one of the hottest teams in the league at the moment, as they looked to build up as much momentum as possible before heading into the postseason and making a deep run into the playoffs as well. As long as this Detroit team remains healthy and consistent throughout the rest of the year, they have a legitimate shot to be one of the top contenders to play for a Super Bowl from the NFC this season.
Betting trends to consider in this matchup:
- Detroit is 4-2 at home

I expect this to be a close and competitive game here on Thursday night between the Denver Broncos and the Detroit Lions. In the end, I look for the Detroit Lions to pick up the victory at home over the Denver Broncos to grab their 10th win of the regular season. As I look for Detroit to make enough plays to get the job done against a solid Denver Broncos team here in this one on Saturday night and week 15 of the NFL season. As I look for the Detroit Lions defense to come up big at the end of the game to hold out and hold off the Denver Broncos for the victory.
