Power-rating comparison
Why the model has the Lions by 8.5
The model does not think this one is close. The Lions rate 8th of 32 at +2.4, the Titans 29th at -3.4, and once home field is applied the line lands on the Lions by 8.5 — 73% to win. That is the 3rd-widest gap among the 15 games on the Week 14 board. A preseason rating spread this size is not a promise: it says nothing about turnovers, health, or a defense that shows up different than last year. What it does say is that the Titans need the price to be wrong, not the matchup.
The defense wins the headline matchup here: the Lions grade +0.6 on that side of the ball (7th of 32) against a Titans offense at -2.5 (28th) — 3.1 points the wrong way for the offense. Going the other direction, the Lions offense (+1.2, 10th) meets the Titans defense (-1.4, 21st), a 2.7-point gap.
Zoom out to the full season and the model projects the Lions at 9.8 wins (favored in 13 of 17) and the Titans at 6.8 (favored in 3) — 3.1 wins apart across the year. By win probability this is the 16th-hardest game on the Lions' schedule and the 2nd-hardest on the Titans'.
One team has owned this series: the Titans are 5-1 in 6 regular-season meetings since 2002. They last met in 2024: Lions won 52-14 in October. Over their last 4 meetings the Lions are 1-3. Worth saying plainly — the model does not know any of that. It reads 2026 ratings and nothing else, so a lopsided series is a story, not a number on this page.
A note on confidence this high: the model has only been this sure 312 times in 3266 walk-forward games from 2013-2024. Teams it put in the 70-75% range won 71% of those. So a 73% Lions number is well supported by the record, and still loses about 29 times in 100 — which is exactly why the position is a price question, not a certainty question.
There is no market to compare against yet — Kalshi has not listed KXNFLGAME-26DEC13TENDET — and we are not going to invent a price. What the model will say when it opens: Lions YES is only worth buying at 68c or below, which is a demanding ask on a side the model already has at 73%. The likelier position on a game this lopsided is the Titans at 22c or below, where the payoff does the work. Week 1's KXNFLGAME contracts opened in May 2026 and the rest of the slate lists as the season gets closer; this page picks up the price automatically when it does.

Titans vs Lions — frequently asked
Who is favored in Titans vs Lions in Week 14?
Our power-rating model favors the Lions by 8.5 points, a 73% win probability over the Titans. The Lions rate 8th of 32 (+2.4) and the Titans 29th (-3.4); Kalshi has not listed KXNFLGAME-26DEC13TENDET yet, so the model line is the only number on the board.
What would it take for the Titans to win?
The 8.5-point line comes from a 5.8-point rating gap, and a single-game margin has roughly a 13.5-point standard deviation around it — which is why the Titans still project at 27% rather than zero. Their best structural path is the unit matchup they win on paper. Ratings do not price injuries or turnover luck, which is where most upsets actually come from.
How do you take a position on Titans vs Lions?
The contract will be KXNFLGAME-26DEC13TENDET on Kalshi, a CFTC-regulated exchange open to traders in all 50 states. It has not opened yet; when it does, the model would take the Lions at 68c or below, or the Titans at 22c or below. There is no point spread — you buy a yes or no contract on a team and it settles at $1 or $0.
When and where do the Lions host the Titans?
Tennessee Titans visit the Detroit Lions on Sunday, December 13, 2026 — a Sunday game in NFL Week 14, at Ford Field, Detroit, MI.
What does the model project for the Lions and Titans this season?

How often does the model win when it is 73% on a team like the Lions?
71% of the time. Over 3266 walk-forward games from 2013-2024 — trained only on prior seasons, no market line as an input — the model put a team in the 70-75% range 312 times, and those teams won 71% of them.
