The Detroit Lions (2-6) will travel to Soldier Field to battle NFC North division foe Chicago Bears (3-6) Sunday at 1 p.m. ET (FOX). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Lions vs. Bears odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.
The Bears may have finally found themselves a quarterback for the 1st time since 1985 and Jim McMahon. Ok, it was only 1 game. But what a game it was with Justin Fields breaking the mark of Mike Vick with 178 rushing yards against the Miami Dolphins. The Bears still lost 35-32, but Fields is finally being allowed to use all his skills and it’s doing wonders for the' Bears.
The Lions are coming in off a surprising 15-9 win over the Green Bay Packers which sent Aaron Rodgers to the first 5-game losing streak of his career. The Lions defense, which is still not good, picked off Rodgers twice in the red zone last week. It was a major key to the Lions pulling off the improbable win and coming into this game looking to start a winning streak.
