vs market (Earl \u2212 line)
Detroit sits 5th with a 12.42 neutral-field rating, up nearly a full point (0.979) from last week, and that rating already matches the market at 12.42 โ so there's no edge either way at the current number. The schedule has been soft (0.57) and the 3-0 record flatters them slightly, but the rating climbing from 8.898 last season shows real improvement, so this is a hold rather than a buy or sell. No key absences are docked, so the number is clean.
