The Detroit Lions and Chicago Bears had disappointing openers to the 2025 NFL season. The Lions looked outclassed in just about every way against the Green Bay Packers. While the Bears blew a 17-6 lead with a disastrous fourth quarter. Not only are both teams 0-1 overall, but with a loss already in the division, the Lions and the Bears cannot afford to drop another NFC North match just two weeks into the season. While there’s no such thing as a Week 2 must-win game, tensions will certainly be high
in this.
