Chicago still finds wins hard to come by; their losing streak has reached five games. But the Bears lost by just one point to a playoff team in Green Bay and took another talented team (Minnesota) to overtime, so things are trending in the right direction, it appears.

The Detroit Lions look more than prepared to snap their seven-game losing streak on Thanksgiving and get the feast started early. While the Lions have three field goals in the first half, they have scored on all four first-half possessions to take a commanding 16-0 lead over the Chicago Bears at halftime.
