The Lions are definitely competitive.

They played teams closer in their 19-game losing streak than Tampa Bay did theirs. And hey have Calvin Johnson.

However, this is still well within the Bears’ grasp. The Lions have one of the worst pass defenses in the NFL, and it’s going up against Cutler’s Crew. And, again, the running game could take off here.

I loved this line about Bradley and CB….

I know you wouldn’t want either one of them back, but at some point you have to wonder why are other teams getting more out of former Bears than the Bears did.
