Chicago at Detroit
Time: 1:00 PM (ET) | Sunday
Network: FOX
The Lions are in a bit of a problem because they’ll be without wideout Nate Burleson until November after he broke his arm in a freak accident during a drive home. Although he’s not one of the sexier names around the league, beginning the 2013 season, he and QB Matthew Stafford had the highest completion percentage between any passer and receiver so far. The Lions have Reggie Bush into their system with Joique Bell and have balanced out their offense with a certified passing game thanks to Megatron.
After semi-impressive victories against the Minnesota Vikings and the Detroit Lions, they now stand a real test today against the Chicago Bears who are still undefeated at the moment. The Bears have finally gotten an offensive line to protect Jay Cutler, which sadly wasn’t present with former coach Lovie Smith. With an even better defense, we expect Calvin Johnson see little to none single coverage throughout the day with surprisingly Lions leading receiver Burleson out of action.
