Poor bastard Lions fans...

In addition to it being Blough's first professional start, it will also be the first time he takes a regular-season NFL snap

Meh...the only thing I can think of is the poor bastard who needs a win to secure a fantasy playoff spot and plays the guy who has the Bears' defense.

go lions! Blough better than expected. I like the fact that if we have to face him in a few weeks, we’ll have tape on him. maybe thats the problem for the Bears, they have nothing on this kid.

10 minutes left in the game, Lions have already scored 14 more points than MN did vs the Bears.

It's actually a pretty decent game. Division games on Thanksgiving are usually pretty competitive.

Was hoping the Bears would lose to a 3 win team that was using a third string qb...  Close...

I think I’d wait and see how the Vikings do against the Bears at home.

That is not my point.

I was replying to this comment--"Meh...the only thing I can think of is the poor bastard who needs a win to secure a fantasy playoff spot and plays the guy who has the Bears' defense. " My bad I misunderstood that, as the Bears D was going to destroy a rookie QB and his team.
I was simply pointing out the Bears D for some fantasy player, probably did not hurt their chance at a fantasy playoff spot.

Onto the, wait til MN plays Bears at home
I saw that movie already, week 17 of the 2018 season.
I actually believe that was a headline going into the game, 
MN had everything to play for and the Bears had nothing to gain,
and actually could have gone farther into the playoffs had they just forfeited to MN.

Hopefully the Sequel is better than the 2018 original B)
