Just because the Ford's finally woke up and canned hapless Matt Millen, that doesn't mean the Lions are going to be any better. Bettors and the general public must really be enamored with Detroit's offensive weapons because they keep laying money on them, thus keeping the line tight. In their last 11 games, the Lions are 1-10 ATS.
I think folks are discounting Kyle Orton's abilities. He didn't look particularly great in his few starts a couple of years ago, but, for the most part he is getting the job done this year. However, he doesn't have to be great or even good. The Lions defense is horrendous. And, their run D is Swiss cheese, giving up an incredible 207 yards a game on the ground. Look for the rookie Matt Forte to have a lot of carries and a big day. The success onthe ground should eliminate the need for Orton to pass the ball frequently and avoid 3rd and long situations
Take the Bears -3 1/2. BOOK IT!!!
