Predictions and Selections for NFL Preseason (8/8): Spotlight on Friday Night Games

Football Preseason Predictions: A Look at the Detroit Lions, Cleveland Browns, and Washington Commanders

The NFL preseason is underway, and Betting News has released their divisional picks for the upcoming games. Among these, the highly anticipated matchup between the Detroit Lions and Atlanta Falcons has generated significant interest.

In this encounter, the Lions are favored as slight road favorites, with typical betting odds showing Lions at -3.5 spread and moneyline around -190 to win. The Falcons, on the other hand, are underdogs at +160. This is largely due to the Lions' advantage in terms of game experience, having already played a preseason game, while the Falcons are resting their starters like Michael Penix Jr. and Kirk Cousins.

The game is expected to be a competitive, low-scoring affair. In a partially completed preseason game report, a 17-10 final score favoring the Lions has been predicted.

However, for the Cleveland Browns vs. Carolina Panthers and Washington Commanders vs. New England Patriots preseason matchups, no direct search results are currently available to provide predictions or detailed analysis. Therefore, no authoritative predictions or betting odds can be cited from these results.

In the Commanders vs. Patriots game, Josh Dobbs is expected to see a majority of the action for the Commanders. The quarterbacks for the Commanders, Josh Johnson and Sam Hartman, neither of whom bring much confidence, will be taking the field. The Patriots, under the leadership of new Head Coach Mike Vrabel, might be slightly deeper than the Commanders in tonight's contest. Drake Maye will play a limited amount in tonight's matchup.
