The Chicago Bears left Ford Field on Thanksgiving victors over to Detroit Lions, who now sit at 0-10-1. It took a walkoff field goal to beat the winless division rivals, and the Bears largely avoided the running game for no reason they’re willing to share. Quarterback Andy Dalton, filling in for Justin Fields (ribs), had one of his best games of his post-Bengals career, topping 300 passing yards and hooking up with tight end Jimmy Graham for a touchdown.
Nine different receivers were targeted, the second-most of any game this season (Tampa Bay saw 10 Bears receivers targeted), so there was a concerted effort to get different playmakers involved in the game.
