@RayRayK I agree that the Lions are really good this year. What keeps this stat interesting is that they are always the better team in their thanksgiving match up yet they manage to fuck things up for everyone. Last year they lost to Jordan Love’s Packers, they were on a win streak entering Thanksgiving. There seems to be a pattern for Detroit Lions and Thanksgiving Games.
Goff first season 2021 the Lions were 0-9-1 going into the thanksgiving game, and the Bears were 3-7. Bears actually swept the Lions that season.
Now the last two Thanksgiving games vs Green Bay and Buffalo, both those teams were playing for the Divisions at the end of those seasons
The Bears most likely won't make the playoffs and certainly won't play for the Division this season
They were so deflated after that miracle tip TD vs the skins, and now off two more DIV games the should've won....this is a tough spot for Da Bears

you're totally reaching here IMO and the only legit angle you have is the Thanksgiving failures but there is an obvious difference in this year's team.
I'll have actual statistical angles in my own writeup but in short, none of those Lions teams had a defense like this one, none of them won in blowouts like this one, and also that 'bad game' you think they're due for? They had 2 of them already, the 5 pick game vs Houston where they still won, and the game vs the Bucs where Baker got the revenge on them.

How do they win?? They are going to stop that Lions offense all day? Lions defense ranks #1 in NFL on 3rd downs defensively. Lions defense hasn't allowed a TD in 2 straight games..
Tell me how the Bears win this game?
Detroit 38 Bears 14
Put your crack pipe down!!
