Our Detroit Lions vs Chicago Bears Prediction

Chicago is the small favorite in this game; however, they still look to be the best betting option. Detroit has no doubt had a disappointing season and, as a result, was eliminated from the playoffs last week. The Lions are only 3-5 on the road this season as well, partly due to their inconsistent defense.

Chicago, on the other hand, has one of the most explosive offenses in the league, thanks to the emergence of their quarterback, Caleb Williams. The Bears struggled defensively last week, but overall, they are allowing an average of 24.8 points per game.

Simply put, Chicago is better in nearly every area compared to the Lions, plus they are 6-1 at home. For that reason, our Chicago Bears vs Detroit Lions prediction is: Chicago Bears ML.
