Junfu Han / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images Checking in with Detroit Lions fans for our latest SB Nation Reacts survey: How many points will the Lions offense need to score to beat the Bills? Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NFL. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Detroit Lions fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys. Each week, in our SB Nation Reacts Survey, we will provide readers with a question or two specifically geared toward Detroit Lions fans, with an article exploring the results released later in the week. In this installment, we have two questions: the first being a recurring weekly question, and the next being designed for Week 15. 1. Are you confident the Lions are headed in the right direction? (weekly poll)2. How many points will the Lions offense need to score to beat the Bills? After four consecutive weeks of landing at 99% confidence, the fan vote last week dropped to 91%, the second-lowest mark of the season (the lowest being the poll following the loss to the Bucs). Despite the dip, the Lions once again took care of business, beating the Packers for the second time this season, moved to 12-1 on the year (a franchise record), have now won 11 games in a row (a franchise record), and have clinched a spot in the postseason for the second consecutive year. And now it’s time to vote again. Will the percentage jump back up after another win? Or are the Buffalo Bills too daunting an opponent for some opinion’s to be swayed? For our second poll, we are bringing back last week’s question for two reasons. First, the Lions defense is still dealing with injuries and Detroit is once again facing a top-five offense. And second, you guys nailed the poll last week! In the lead-up to the Packers game, the majority (49%) of voters said that the Lions would need to score between 30 and 34 points, and that’s exactly what they needed, as the Lions won 34-31. Like last week, this week’s question (How many points will the Lions offense need to score to beat the Bills?) will have five options to choose from: 19 or fewer 20 to 24 25 to 29 30 to 34 35 or more Over the Bills' seven-game win streak, they scored between 30 and 35 points in six games, and in last week’s loss to the Rams, they scored 42 points. They average 30.5 points scored a game this season, second in the NFL to only the Lions, who average 32.1 points per game. On defense, the Lions also boast a top-two scoring defense, only allowing teams to score, on average, 18 points against them. The Bills aren’t far behind, as they sport the eighth-best scoring defense and only allow, on average, 20.6 points per game. With points potentially at a premium in this game, it’ll be interesting to see how the results of this poll play out. Alright, it’s time to vote in the polls below, and keep an eye out later in the week for the results. Please take our survey
