Through 1 Quarter
The experts predicted a victory for the Chicago Bears, but it's no sure thing at this point. After one quarter neither squad has the game in the bag, but Chicago leads 9-6 over the Detroit Lions. RB David Montgomery has led the way so far for the Bears, as he has rushed for one TD and 36 yards on six carries.
Chicago might have shot themselves in the foot with a missed PAT kick. We'll see if that mistake comes back to haunt them later on.

What to Know
The Detroit Lions haven't won a contest against the Chicago Bears since Dec. 16 of 2017, but they'll be looking to end the drought Sunday. The Lions and Chicago will face off in an NFC North battle at 1 p.m. ET at Soldier Field. Given that these two teams suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this game.
It looks like Detroit got the smaller half of the wishbone at Thanksgiving dinner. The matchup between Detroit and the Houston Texans last Thursday was not particularly close, with Detroit falling 41-25. A silver lining for Detroit was the play of RB Adrian Peterson, who punched in two rushing touchdowns. Peterson's performance made up for a slower contest against the Carolina Panthers two weeks ago. Peterson's sharp performance set his single-game rushing touchdown high for the season.
Meanwhile, the Bears lost to the Green Bay Packers on the road by a decisive 41-25 margin. Chicago was down 41-10 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from. RB David Montgomery put forth a good effort for the losing side as he picked up 103 yards on the ground on 11 carries in addition to snatching one receiving TD. That nimble footwork stands out as the first time Montgomery has hit the 100-yard rushing mark this season.
The Lions are expected to lose this next one by 3. Those betting on them against the spread shouldn't have high expectations for them since the team is 1-5 ATS when expected to lose.
Detroit is now 4-7 while the Bears sit at 5-6. A couple numbers to keep in mind before kickoff: Detroit is second worst in the league in rushing touchdowns allowed, with 17 on the season. Chicago has experienced some struggles of their own as they are stumbling into the matchup with the fewest rushing touchdowns in the NFL, having accrued only two on the season. We'll see if Detroit's defense can keep Chicago's running backs out of the end zone.
