Anyone else think Chicago can beat Detroit? - StickierBuns - 09-14-2025
I don't know, I've got this weird feeling. Might be more of a game than most think. I predicted that this year if you punch Detroit in the mouth, they don't have much fight left after blowing the past 2 years opportunity to get to the Superbowl. The grind is real.

Oh you bet. Ben Johnson's going to really want this one. Lions should be favored, and they are (by 6.5), but that seems too much to me. Campbell and Johnson know each other's tendencies, so this one will be a real chess match.

I'd love to see the Bears win this one. Having said that, I will be surprised if they do.

Campbell playing chess?
Lol...
I'll dissent with a gut feel the Lions win this one...Since its a division game? I bet the Bears cover - and lose.

I really believed (at the time) last year was their 1998...
I dont think their window is shut - YET and I dont want the Packers running away with the division either.
Not sure how many wins the Vikings can put up this year?? Not sure what we got at QB yet.
I'm kinda hoping Lions keep pressure on GB.

Ha! Yeah, I probably could've chosen a better metaphor for that lughead. Maybe Damnatio ad bestias.

Can we agree that if lions lose at home today, that just maybe ragnow and zeitler leaving is a way bigger development than what football analysts have discussed.....
lions scored 13 points at Green Bay in Loss last weekend.
Last time that happened was September 2023.
maybe I'm looking at this all wrong but for a lotta reasons I think the lions are drawing dead this season.

Not really. They can hang with them for a while but Caleb doing Caleb stuff like running around and tossing a pick a few minutes ago will do them in.

I still hope so, but I doubt that I'd bet on it.

This thread aged well ?
Bears will be lucky to win 5 games.

Yah, predictions can come bite in butt for sure...
Johnson has his work cut-out for himself. Nobody likes starting 0/2, especially in your own division.
Williams was 14/19, 136, 2 td's and one int. But he didnt handle the pressure well.
Odunze is already a heck of a player.
