Our true line (previously known as outlaw line) is Detroit -2.5. The true line is what the line would be without public perception or bad line moves. Yes Oakland added a lot of talent in the offseason, but they are all veterans who have little to prove in preseason. WR has been terrible in camp and opening game. Mychal Rivera is only healthy Raiders TE.

The Lions have actually spoken of the importance to play well because they will have a few games outside their time zone this season and this game is a dress rehearsal for that.
