Daniel looking like a guy who hasn’t started in years. Not exactly impressed.

Years? he looks like he's started 3 games ATM lol.
”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?”

My Pagan Prediction:

Trubiski sits to insure the shoulder is ready for the Playoff Push :D

Whole team steps up & rallies around Daniels.

Bears: 24

Lions: 20

So did the lions, only a few more hours of rest.

And this is why you want your franchise QB to tough it out. A 70% Tru is better than a 100% Daniel.

Cos if you give up a FG, you still have the lead.

If you make it, of course.

Miller is a warrior for coming down with that ball.

Somebody could've driven a semi-truck through the passing lane that was created on that touchdown.

Bear Down.

Be You.

Nobody looked like they were on the same page. I don’t like the call with a back up QB in. Just get the PAT.

Nagy is gonna call his game the way he’s gonna call it, regardless of who is in there.

Yep. The theory is one of constant pressure on the opposition.

How’d that work out? The guy hasn’t had any reps, take the point. Maybe this is a game to be smart instead of being you?

Hell yeah, defense came up huge! Daniel didn’t do anything to loose this game, he played good enough for a week. I’m so pumped for the team right now!

Eddy Jackson should be AP and PB.

Daniel is gonna be fine. We're gonna win this game.

He's not new to the offense at all. The defense is playing lights out. Detroit's offense is not what it was. Slay can't guard everyone.

Bear down.

And a new one we should add, "Be You" from Nagy's play card.
http://www.espn.com/nfl/boxscore?gameId=401030905

Preliminary final box score from ESPN

Daniel: 27/37 for 230 with 2 TDs and 0 INT for a 106.8 rating
Stafford: 28/38 for 236 with 0 TDs and 2 INTS for a 67.4 rating

Daniel played great. I hate our running game. The defense showed up to play big time.

Bear Down
Be You

Team circled the wagons, Def missed Mitch but Daniels managed the game very well & the Defense was in control.

Great Turkey Day win.

Enjoy those families friends!!

that was a bit more of a nail biter than I would have preferred

thank you Chase Daniel - you have earned your pay for the year just with this game IMO

thank you Bears defense for coming up big when needed and a special thanks to Eddie Jackson

Bears running game was weak, but I believe that was due to the Lions taking it away to force Daniel to beat them, which was a good strategy on their part ... that final first down by Cohen was hilarious as Daniels picked him up and carried him to it (which I think is technically illegal but it wasn't called)

nice win ... a needed win

helps to make the turkey taste better

Man. I can’t believe the Bears won. Daniel isn’t Mitch, but he played pretty well. He’s a tough dude.
