Dan Campbell Against The Spread: Where Does Lions HC Rank?

Few NFL head coaches have the juice that Dan Campbell has in the Motor City. The former NFL tight end has led Michigan’s NFL franchise to new heights in his first three years and made Detroit Lions Super Bowl odds a real proposition.

That run includes Detroit’s first division title since 1991 last season, when the Lions went 12-5. Like that 1991 team, last season’s Lions fell in the NFC Championship Game, 34-31 against to the San Francisco 49ers. At least that was much closer than the 41-10 shellacking Detroit endured against Washington in ’91.

To get a sense of where Campbell ranks among his NFL brethren when it comes to success against the Michigan sports betting spread, BetMichigan.com broke down the numbers on the NFL leader’s run in the Motor City through three seasons.

These will help you as you review Lions vs Rams Odds For Week 1 coming up in just a couple weeks.

Where Dan Campbell Ranks ATS in NFL

Of the 32 men that are in Campbell’s shoes in the NFL, only one head coach ranks above Campbell’s ATS percentage of .679 and that’s Las Vegas Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce, who hasn’t coached a full season yet. Pierce has covered the spread in 87.5% of his nine games so far, all but one.

In total, Campbell’s 69.0% ATS figure at home is tied for second in the NFL, according to stats compiled by the nfeloapp.com website. Their stats include playoff games and our rankings do not include coaches who departed from their clubs after last season. Campbell’s 67.0% ATS success rate on the road is second in the league, something fans and folks using Michigan sportsbook promo codes will have noticed.

As far as ATS figures as the favorite and underdog are concerned, Campbell ranks in a tie for third when it comes to ATS percentage as the favorite (67%) and in a tie for second as the underdog at 69%. His Lions have covered 71% of the times against NFC North competitors since taking over the head coaching role in 2021.

For the 2024-25 NFL season, the Lions are a consensus favorite to repeat as division champions, with DraftKings Michigan Sportsbook offering the best value at +135 odds as of Aug. 21.
