Just thought I'd share this after running the numbers. Here are the stats from all of Detroit's bounce back games since the 2022 losing streak. * in front means it's the home team. After that are the splits of points in 1st hf/2nd hf for each team followed by the differential between both teams at half time and full game. Also included the total.
11/6/22 *DET 8/7 GB 0/9 1st hf diff 8 FG diff 6 TOT 24
12/4/22 *DET 23/17 JAX 6/8 1st hf diff 17 FG diff 26 TOT 54
1/1/23 *DET 24/17 CHI 10/0 1st hf diff 14 FG diff 29 TOT 51
9/24/23 *DET 13/7 ATL 3/3 1st hf diff 10 FG diff 14 TOT 26
10/30/23 *DET 16/10 LV 7/7 1st hf diff 9 FG diff 12 TOT 40
12/3/23 DET 24/9 *NO 7/21 1st hf diff 17 FG diff 5 TOT 61
12/16/23 *DET 21/21 DEN 0/17 1st hf diff 21 FG diff 25 TOT 59

9/14/25 *DET 28/24 CHI 14/7 1st hf diff 14 FG diff 31 TOT 73
It is worth noting the most of Detroit's bounce backs were against sub par teams. TB may be the best they have faced in this position. That said, it appears every time Detroit jumped all over the opponent in the first half having at least a 7 point lead at half time in all 11 games and often a lot more. There does appear to be some slippage in the 2nd half on certain occasions. I personally find some merit in this trend and am playing DET 1st half. Main reason in sharing was to point out that if you are going to bet on Detroit, it looks like betting them 1st half is a stronger play in this spot. This way you can also avoid a Mayfield backdoor as well which could be possible with his receivers back and a weakened Detroit secondary.
. Good luck tonight!
