Chicago Bears 17, Detroit Lions 14
Here are the top-graded players and biggest takeaways from the Bears’ 17-14 win over the Lions.
Quarterback grade: Matthew Stafford, 49.1
Stafford struggles with accuracy throughout game
The Lions’ offensive line was outstanding in pass protection, allowing pressure on just six of their 40 pass plays, but Matt Stafford was unable to capitalize. Stafford struggled with accuracy throughout the game, and there were communication breakdowns with his receivers on at least one of his two interceptions. Chicago blitzed just three times, content to sit back in coverage and force Stafford to beat them with accurate passes.
