Alright, zooming into the game between the Detroit Lions and the Chicago Bears, salutes are due to the Lions' QB, Jared Goff, who’s on one hell of a classy run with a passing efficiency of 107.6, 10 TDs to his name and only one interception. Over in the Bears' den, Caleb Williams is certainly no slouch, but he's not hitting the same insane numbers as Goff, marking 100.3 in passing efficiency and 8 TDs.
Let's munch on the offensive eye-candy on the Lions' side. Jahmyr Gibbs (RB) is going to town with 390 total yards and 5 TDs, while Amon-Ra St. Brown (WR) is not far behind with 381 total yards and 1 TD. On the other side, Bears’ DJ Moore (WR) and Keenan Allen (WR) are cranking it up a notch with 335 total yards, 2 TDs and 271 total yards, 4TDs respectively, but it just doesn't quite compare to Detroit’s offensive record in the last month.
And who’s that making a splash on the defense? Oh yeah, it’s the Lions’ Jack Campbell (LB) and Brian Branch (CB), bringing in 29 and 28 tackles respectively. The Bears fight back with Kevin Byard (FS) and T.J. Edwards (LB) tackling left, right, and center with 34 and 33 tackles, but what's a tackle without a sack or an interception to sweeten the deal?
Look, let's be honest: based on the 12-2 regular season record of the Lions, their top spot in the NFC North Standings, and, let's not forget, their recent history of clawing the Bears into submission, it's not looking rosy for Chicago. I mean, come on, you don't need to be a seer to predict this one.
