Detroit has been decimated by injuries, especially on the defensive side, with at least 15 players counting on injured reserve. Also, the Lions lost star running back David Montgomery, probably for the season. Chicago has covered the past three meetings, including an outright win last year, and the Lions were fortunate to win the first meeting this season on Thanksgiving Day. Detroit is on a 0-3 ATS run and has allowed 79 points in its past two games against Green Bay and Buffalo. The Bills piled up 559 yards of offense in their 48-42 victory last week, and Josh Allen picked apart the Lions defense while completing 23 of 34 for 362 yards and two TDs, plus two rushing touchdowns. Detroit has scored 2-4 ATS on its past six trips to Chicago, and the Bears have scored 8-1-1 ATS in their past 10 home games. Grab the points with the Bears.

Chicago at Detroit
Chicago's one-dimensional offense isn't very good, last in the league in passing, and 21st in points scored (20.2 ppg). QB Justin Fields (16 TDs, 10 INTs) has been sacked 48 times and is dealing with injuries to his foot and left shoulder. The Bears are 47-29 UNDER the total after being outrushed by 75+ yards in the last game, plus 39-23 UNDER on the road against teams that average 24+ points. Detroit's defense has actually been playing well at home giving up an average of 17.7 points in its last four home contests. The Lions are 19-8 UNDER the total at home versus teams averaging 175 or fewer passing yards per game. And NFL home teams like Detroit off of an upset loss by 14 points or more as a favorite are 21-2 UNDER the total when facing a divisional opponent. Take Chicago/Detroit UNDER the total.
