3 key stats that defined Bears' blowout loss to Lions in Week 2

Sunday's 52-21 beatdown against the Detroit Lions could not end soon enough for the Chicago Bears, who allowed 40 or more points for the first time since Sept. 24, 2023, and 50 or more points for the first time since Nov. 9, 2014.

No matter how you slice it, the Bears were outmatched entirely in their week two matchup, and these stats show exactly how they got pummeled, and perhaps their one silver lining from the loss.

The Detroit Lions had six straight scoring drives between the second and fourth quarters, a remarkable step back from the Bears' relatively strong defensive performance through the first three quarters a week ago.
