Maybe the Lions aren't as bad defensively as everyone thought. Maybe the Bears season is not over. Those two theories get tested again this week as Detroit and Chicago hook up in Week 8. The Lions, despite their win over Tampa, have the league's worst passing defense on the road, a point Brian Griese should exploit.
Oddsmakers currently have the Bears listed as 5½-point favorites versus the Lions, while the game's total is sitting at 45.
