AI ANALYSIS

"Detroit (5-2) arrives in Miami Gardens on a three-game winning streak, including back-to-back wins over divisional opponents. Miami (1-6) is coming off a loss to the Patriots. The independent model gives the Lions about a 71% chance, which matches the market view. Detroit's defense is thin. Linebacker Jack Campbell, safety Kerby Joseph, center Cade Mays, cornerback D.J. Reed and edge DJ Wonnum are all ruled out. Amon-Ra St. Brown (ribs) is questionable but expected to play, and Jameson Williams and Sam LaPorta give the offense other options. Miami has running back problems, with Jaylen Wright out and Kaytron Allen questionable. Kadyn Proctor is back on the offensive line after clearing concussion protocol. Malik Willis starts at quarterback for the Dolphins. Conditions look dry and warm, around 82 degrees with light northeast wind and little chance of rain, which suits Detroit's outdoor passing game. The Lions are roughly a one-touchdown road favorite."
