i'm actually more worried about the potential for major injuries than i am about the bears actually winning.

Divisional games are always tough. This team still seems to be bipolar, I'll no longer be worried when we are 11-4.

Was worried about the Vikings. The Bears D is collegiate.

Lions have lost 16 straight games with the temperature under 40 degrees. Last win with temp under 40?, 2000, against the Giants. Forecast for Chicago on shows 35?. Can't believe it'll be any warmer in GB.

All streaks come to an end. Relax. Plus, once this is broken vs Bears, it boosts confidence for the team that they will break the @Lambeau streak as well.
The level of embarrassment that the Bears achieved on Monday night worries me a little bit going into this game. What better way to regain a little pride by spoiling things for a division rival.
That said, the Lions should win handily, especially if the Bears decide to sit in zone coverage again. It's nice to see Cutler and Jared Allen suffer. I can't get enough of that.

They beat the Cowboys.

I never look past a division opponent. And as a Lions fan, I'm ALWAYS worried until the clock says 00:00.
Jimmy Clausen is starting...there is absolutely no reason to lose this game. Cutler is capable of putting together a good game, Clausen better not score a TD or it's a disappointment.

They're crushing Clausen. How do you think ol Jimmy boy feels knowing that he's going up against that defense?? He's toast!!

Clausen has 3 tds and 9 ints in his 5 year career. Lions should embarrass the Bears.
NFL network talkin bout cutler and da bears sounding to me like the Bears coaches have lost the clubhouse rumors of anonymous player or players saying these decisions make no sense
The Bears have lots of issues...good for us
Still...bring your A game lions Bears could decide to play for pride don't go falling behind 14-0 again!

It doesn't matter, this is a non-story. Why? Because Clausen is fragile. Look at his frame, he's frail.
So after 4 minutes against our D-Line, Cutler is back in the game and Clausen is telling coach he's Batman.
This effects the first few minutes of the game, and not much more.

So maybe we shouldn't rush to keep Clausen in the game?

I loved that commercial so much. Pretty funny it's in New York and the team is wearing green. I'm pretty sure even as Batman he'd be the best QB on the Jets.
After all the concussion related tragedy now it just seems a bit morbid, doesn't it?

I take absolutely nothing for granted as a longtime Lions fan, its deeply buried in my sportsfan DNA, and I can't just erase 40+ years of ever increasing angst in only one. I doubt that anything short of @ least one playoff win and/or reaching the NFC championship game would or could even begin to change that.
The Lions will be playing the NFL's version of the "Bad News Bears" this Sunday, but when the team is on the road playing outdoors on the cusp of Winter & vs a divisional opponent with nothing left to play for but perhaps pride and position & likely their BU QB in Claussen, it still reminds me of some past seasons/games when the Lions squandered similar chances to crush their opponents, or even handily defeat them, to prove once and for all that they are "for real."
