December 15th, 2022 NFL Football Betting Online Odds

NFL betting heavily favors the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday as they host the Detroit Lions.The Lions are not likely to have rookie quarterback Matthew Stafford for this pro football betting contest so it will be either Daunte Culpepper or Drew Stanton getting the start. Here is a look at the information and trends for this matchup between the Lions and 49ers.NFL betting has San Francisco as a 12-point favorite against Detroit with a total of 41. For those that are considering taking the Lions plus the big NFL betting points, they definitely don’t want to see Culpepper as the starter. He has never won a start in his career for Detroit. Stanton at least gives Detroit Lions a little hope in pro football betting. Last week Culpepper was horrible again and Stanton came in for him at the half. It is hard to take Detroit at anytime in NFL betting but with Culpepper as quarterback it simply has been a losing proposition.
