The Lions got into Bears territory for the first time today, settling for a 50-yard field goal from Matt Prater to cut the Chicago lead to 7-3 with 2:19 to play until halftime.
After the Lions got behind the chains on a holding call on Taylor Decker, Matt Stafford hooked up with Marvin Jones for the first time today, finding his favorite receiver for 17 yards. The Bears forced a third down, but they went offsides and gave the Lions a new set of downs at midfield. After back-to-back incompletions, Stafford found Anquan Boldin for a first down at the Chicago 39.
