These two divisional rivals have a habit of playing each other closer than expected. When the Lions aren't being beaten by better teams, they have been playing down to their competition. They beat Miami at home by 4. The week before they edged the lowly Falcons by 1 and the week before that they squeaked by the Saints (again at home) by a point. They haven't won a game by more than 7 points since October 12 against the Vikings. Megatron and Bush are hobbled, and they're missing key personnel on both sides of the ball. Chicago +7.

Line looks a little big for a under performing Detroit team. Neither will light up the score board. Turnovers should tell the story in this game. Chicago + 7 and the under 48. I will most likely tease this to chic + 14 and under 55 for $200.

Should be a bounce back spot for the Lions after two straight losses but do they cover? Division game.. Lions win...Bears with the backdoor cover cutting a 13 point deficit to 6...
Sip on that plus money honey!

Been doing this gambling thing a day or two, Thanksgiving is a nice holiday for bettors. I am up really large this week and doubling down today. I will give you my picks and explain why they will happen. 1st- Detroit -7 is the play. reasons- Lions lost 2 in a row and this being t-giving day they will want it more, Bears stars on defense are hurt and may or may not play. Detroit will put up some points today, Chicago doesn't play well when they can't run the ball, today they are playing against the number 1 rush def.... Cutler can't carry the team with no running game, and last reason, Detroit is 7-3 ats vs Chic in last 10 meetings. 2nd- Seattle + 1 is my 2nd best play, Seattle has recently and quietly got back on track. SF still looks like they are just missing something, this is a very important game for both teams and Seattle has owned SF in the last 10 games going 7-3 ats. The seattle defense is looking tough while the SF offense looks meek. Gimme Seattle please. 3rd Philly- This is my least favorite pick. I am taking philly and the points because this is an important game and I think philly has the better team but some things to be aware...I am extremely light on this one because Dallas has owned Philly going 7-3 also in the last 10 meetings, it is T-giving and based on the past, Dallas is tough on Turkey day. They usually win and cover easily. However it all turns out I hope you all have a great Turkey Day..

I believe the Lions with GA DAWG Stafford can cover the spread here. Detroit needs to get back on track to win the North, here is their opportunity. Recently Chicago only offense that Chicago really has is #22 Forte, Without him Tampa might have stolen a W up in Chi-Town last weekend. I do not think Chicago can keep up with Detroit and a healthy megatron, Tate combo. My money is on the 7 with the Lions. Detroit's D is playing well and should be knocking Cutler down often, hopefully Sue will not stop on his head or do some other bonehead move on Turkey Day...
Detroit to cover the 7! GLTA

But, you're missing one key element - Cutler just plain stinks. The only thing he is "elite" at is conning the public into thinking he's a good QB. My Turkey Day prediction, Lions move back from #3 to the #1 ranked defense
He winds up with like a 38.2% rating or some sh!t.....
Why do you guys think this divisional game is 7 instead of the usual 1.5 to 2.5? Hell, Cowboys/Giants last week with the Cowboys coming off a bye was only like 3 or 4?
Vegas is being kind, I would take the Lions if it were 10.5.....
This game will be the one that gets Trestman fired and Cutler doubted once again. Good luck & Happy T-Day!!

Lions haven't scored a TD in the last 2 games and Bears give up 2nd most TD passes in the NFL. Somethings gotta give, right? I'll give Detroit the Thanksgiving Day home game benefit of the doubt.

Detroit will cover this game easily after 2 poor outings back home after not showing up against the Pats Cutler is downright terrible and when Lions stop running game poor Cutler will be lost Detroit by 10
