Thursday games are always lousy. I think rough day for the Bears but they scrape by with an ugly win.

BEARS 24
Lions 19

I don't like the short week, and the Lions actually looked pretty good against the Panthers, and the Bears are on the road...

But, I don't think they have much of a problem with Detroit.

Bears 31
Lions 16

Hard one to predict being such a short week. Listening to the Bears coaches thought they had a plan in place even Mitch said he had to get to bed during his presser that's how detailed the plan is all the way down to nutrition. I think the Bears win this game decisively...

Bears < 36 vs 19 > Lions

”Damn -- Khalil Mack had another strip sack?” Gruden asked rhetorically, shaking his head at the Oakland Raiders assistant coaches in his midst. “Are you ... kidding me?”

Detroit is going to come out wanting revenge, and they are going to run into a defense that is playing at a possessed level. The defense is playing better than it was a week ago. The Lions are going to be confident coming off of a win, and just get smacked in the mouth.

Knowing what I know of Nagy. My guess is, he installed 80% of this week's game plan two weeks ago leading up to the first Lions game. There won't be a lot of new work this week, so the Bears will come into the game fresh and ready to play.

Akiem Hicks is a beast, Mack has two sacks, the back four have at least two picks.

Bears - 31
Lions - 17

_________________

Kind of a letdown. Bears coming off a big high with the Queen win. Kitties ramping up some confidence with the victory over the Panther.

Short week for both usually means inconsistent, shitty football. Both teams tired, Bears more so with the travel.

I think Kitties keep it close.

Bears - 21

Kitties - 17

If the Bears go up big early, I think that this game gets ugly and REALLY chippy. The Lions don't want to lose twice to the Bears.

More garbage yards and a score late make it closer than it was.

The Bears are rolling right now. Detroit won't be ready. The Swagwagon is in full force. #10 throws 3 TDs. Howard gets 100 yards and a score. The defense is just too much fun to watch. Half of Detroit's offensive starters decide to retire at halftime.

Bears: 37
Lions: 13
