In the first three weeks of the season, one staff member picked the Detroit Lions in every game. Each of these staff members were burnt by the decision, sometimes in heartbreaking ways.
But for week 4, the staff at Pride of Detroit are singing a different tune. After last week’s unfathomable loss to the Baltimore Ravens on a record-breaking kick, we here at Pride of Detroit suddenly have a lot more confidence in this team. It also helps that the Lions face off against a Chicago Bears 1-2 team that just had one of the worst offensive performances in modern football history.
Since 2011, these two teams have exactly separated in games in Chicago. Five wins for the Bears. Five wins for the Lions. It’s been one of NFC North’s more even rivalries lately, despite neither team having won a playoff game in more than 10 years.
But with the Lions early in rebuilding and already showing signs of improvement, as the Bears head for a potential changing of the guard atop the franchise, POD staff are in the Detroit corner this week. Of our 13 staff members, 11 of them predict the Lions will pull off the slight upheaval at Soldier Field this week.
Here are our selections:
Jérémy Reisman (3-0): 20-17 Lions
Erik Schlitt (3-0): 21-20 Lions
Hamza Baccouche (3-0): 20-16 Lions
Kyle Yost (3-0): 24-18 bears
John Whiticar (3-0): 27-20 bears
Alex Reno (3-0): 27-17 Lions
Jerry Mallory (3-0): 23-20 Lions
Andrew Kato (3-0): 24-13 Lions
Ryan Mathews (3-0): 20-13 Lions
Kellie Rowe (2-1): 17-13 Lions
Mike Payton (2-1): 21-13 Lions
Chris Perfett (2-1): 25-19 Lions
Morgan Canon (0-0): 20-17 Lions
