Coming off their upset win over the Green Bay Packers in Week 13, the Arizona Cardinals return home to face the Detroit Lions. The Lions have lost five of their last six and over that span, they've been generous to opposing defenses. Four of the past six teams to face the Lions have come away with a top-five weekly fantasy finish.

It's been a tough stretch for Matthew Stafford as he's taken 26 sacks over the past 6 games. On the season, Stafford has taken the seventh-most sacks (36) of any quarterback. The pressure on Stafford has led to him tossing 11 interceptions, which is the fifth-most leaguewide.

Now in Week 14, the Lions will be on the road against a Cardinals team that ranks third in the league in sacks (38) and seventh in quarterback hits (77). On the season, the Cardinals defense actually ranks as the league's 11th-best, per numberFire metrics.

The Lions are 2.5-point road favorites in this matchup, but oddsmakers aren't expecting a lot of points in this game. The over/under is set at 40.5, which is the third lowest in Week 14. Against a Lions team that has allowed the eighth-most fantasy points to opposing defenses, the Cardinals are an attractive streaming option at home.
