The Lions should not be disregarded in 2010 NFL preseason odds since they’re likely one of the most improved squads this season in online NFL lines. 
The Lions are extreme underdogs in NFL betting to win the Super Bowl at 125-1 plus they are also underdogs to win the NFC North. Detroit will probably be better this season and it may appear right away when they play at Pittsburgh in 2010 NFL preseason wagering.
In their first 2 preseason competitions at Pittsburgh and at Denver, 2010 NFL preseason odds will list Detroit as long shots, however the Lions should be preferred in their last 2 at home versus Cleveland and Buffalo. The Lions are still not on par with the other squads in the NFC North nonetheless they are getting closer. Detroit added wide receiver Nate Burleson, tight end Tony Scheffler along with defensive end Kyle Vanden Bosch among others and they got defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh and running back Jahvid Best in the draft.
Calvin Johnson is already a excellent player for Detroit, and this year he’ll get some support as Burleson should take some of the strain off him. Matthew Stafford should be greater in his 2nd season and Scheffler is a sound tight end that will provide him a safety valve target. The Detroit offensive line, which still needs progress, is the problem for the squad this year. Getting Rob Sims from Seattle can help but the Lions still need more.
While the Detroit defense does have some potential for 2010, the defense is still a major problem. In all the last 4 years, the Lions have been horrible on defense. The excellent news is that they ought to be better this season. The addition of Suh already makes them much better. They took him with the 2nd pick in the NFL Draft. The Lions also got Corey Williams from Green Bay and he’ll also facilitate. The Lions have the makings of a quite excellent defensive line if Vanden Bosch can restore his form. Because the secondary is horrible, the Lions need a fine defensive line.
The Lions are not going to roll over vs squads this season in 2010 NFL preseason wagering or in the normal season considering the changes they have made. They may even get a road win during the normal season. The Lions have not won a road competition since October of 2007.
This season will be the franchise’s 81st season in the NFL, and the 77th as the Detroit Lions. The squad was formerly established in Portsmouth, Ohio and named the Portsmouth Spartans. The squad accumulated a 2-14 track record in 2009, which was the 2nd worst in the league. That had been under head coach Jim Schwartz, who’ll be in charge again this year. The squad hopes to bounce back from this terrible track record. However, the Lions aren’t quite well known for their capability to bounce back. In 2008, they became the only squad in NFL history to lose all 16 competitions during the normal season. They also hold the 2nd greatest normal season losing streak in NFL history, having lost 19 competitions in a row from 2007 to 2009.
