It’s week 11 – The Detroit Lions are looking for their 3rd straight win as they head to Chicago to take on the Bears.
If the Lions plan to have any success this week – they should plan to stop the run. Detroit is ranked 10th in rush yards allowed per game at 101.2 yards, and holding Howard to short yardage will be key to any success. This game is a key matchup for the Lions, it is going to be a hard-fought game, but one we feel the Lions will walk out of with a win.
