The Bears have not had good luck against the Lions recently. The Lions have won the last four meetings and hold a 5-5 record with the Bears since 2010.
The Bears defense has actually looked improved under Vic Fangio despite not playing their first team much and opposing starting quarterbacks going a combined 17 of 22 against them during the preseason. Their offense looked surprisingly bad however. The Bears finished the preseason ranked 24th in total yards, 12th in points per game, 30th in third down percentage and 2nd in offensive penalties committed. On a good note they were +6 in turnover ratio.
The Lions continue their streak of wins over the rebuilding Bears in week six. Win (4-2)
