Overview
- Kickoff is Sunday at 3:25 p.m. CT on Fox at Soldier Field.
- Having already clinched the NFC North, the Bears need a win to lock up the No. 2 seed, and coaches say resting healthy starters is not planned.
- Caleb Williams needs 270 passing yards to reach 4,000 for the season, and first-year coach Ben Johnson can notch a 12th regular-season win.
- Prediction packages from the Chicago Sun-Times and Yahoo Sports largely pick Chicago to beat Detroit and secure the second seed.
- Detroit enters 8-8 after a lopsided loss and lists multiple players as out or limited in practice, yet the Lions still feature a top-tier offense with Jared Goff at 4,233 yards and 33 touchdowns.
