Big game on Sunday between the Chicago Bears and the Detroit Lions, and we have everything you need for it right here.
There are no shortages of story lines in this one.
Ben Johnson’s return to Detroit. His friendship with Lions head coach Dan Campbell. Detroit fans’ disdain for Ben for leaving to coach a division rival. Will Detroit get its new offense going after just scoring one touchdown in Green Bay? Caleb Williams’ continued growth in Johnson’s offense. Can Chicago’s defense play a full four
quarters? Is Cairo Santos on thin ice?
