Bears vs. Lions: NFL Week 17 Early Picks & Predictions (2022)
If the Chicago Bears can score about 20 points against the Bills, even if they lose, most bettors would view that as a win for the Bears.
Justin Fields is electric and can do many amazing things, especially with his feet. The offense is capable of scoring a whole lot against the Lions. Yes, the Lions have improved defensively over the last couple of months. But the Lions are still not a top-tier defense, no matter what stats you use to try and prove it.
Meanwhile, the Lions will show off against the Panthers a little bit. If that offense has a successful evening, most bettors would be impressed. The Carolina defense isn’t that bad.
If the Bears and Lions score in the 20s this weekend, you can expect this total line to jump up slightly.
Bet: Over 48.5 (-110)
