    Chicago at Detroit

    Does the Lions offense get back on track in this one against an awful Bears D? No TDs in the last 2 games for this squad and they have looked lost on the field. Early last week Bush was on track to play until getting ruled out, whats the likelihood he plays Thursday?

    On the other side, you have a struggling yet talented Bears offense coming into town against an excellent Defense that was just embarrassed by the Pats. Are we going to see a close low scoring game? Or are Cutler turnovers going to push this to the home team's favor?

    The Under 47.5 and buying the hook to 7.5 on the Bears is starting to look appealing. Thoughts?

    I am taking a shot with the Bears +7.5. Even when Detroit win, they rarely win by 2 scores.

    Teasing DET, they hurdle the lowly Bears, but I don't know WTF is wrong with DET's offense.

    Starting to like a 6 point tease Det -1/Seattle +8. Still liking the Under in this game straight up, already down to 47. Need to do some research on historical turkey day totals

    Total seems high on this game at 47 for how bad this Lions O is. Highest I can even see this going is 24-21 and thats still under the total.
