Chicago's one-dimensional offense isn't very good, last in the league in passing, and 21st in points scored (20.2 ppg). QB Justin Fields (16 TDs, 10 INTs) has been sacked 48 times and is dealing with injuries to his foot and left shoulder. The Bears are 47-29 UNDER the total after being outrushed by 75+ yards in the last game, plus 39-23 UNDER on the road against teams that average 24+ points. Detroit's defense has actually been playing well at home giving up an average of 17.7 points in its last four home contests. The Lions are 19-8 UNDER the total at home versus teams averaging 175 or fewer passing yards per game. And NFL home teams like Detroit off of an upset loss by 14 points or more as a favorite are 21-2 UNDER the total when facing a divisional opponent. Take Chicago/Detroit UNDER the total.
