Yes after further review, it will be asking alot to have the Lions win in Chicago the opening game of the season. Have to go with the Bears today.
Chicago - 27 Detroit - 14
Bears -6 
under 43
Just not confident enough to take the Lions on the road in a divisional game. 
You got this just about right.... 
Aloha Big Daddy!!! Here we go, another year with big hopes for your Dolphins and my Bears!
I am a little uncomfortable with this spread, however, I have to take my Bears. I just hope their offensive line shows up today!
Go Bears!!!!
I highly doubt that the Lions will win this game and especially that they will be favorites at home vs the Bears later in the season however I love the Lions+7 in this spot. If they can improve on thier defense they should stay close with the Bears here.
I am still pissed over a Bears/Lions game in 2006 in which I had Bears-5.5 pts. They blew a nice halftime lead during the 3rd quarter and settled for 3 FG's in the 2nd half to win by only 5 points. Had they won by 6 pts I would have won a $60,000.00 parlay.
YES... That's a $60,000.00 parlay that had 5 dogs on the ML and only the Bears as the lone fav at -5.5 pts.

I will take that lose to eternity and beyond. I had that but it died by the hook.
My guesstimate for this game is Bears-24 Lions-20
Final Score = Bears-19 Lions-14
Personally I feel that the Lions got robbed. The rules regarding catches vs man-down-fumbles are way too inconsistant when compared. His ass was down in the end zone with possession so it should have been a TD. Had that been a runner in the field of play(not the endzone) it would have been a down by contact. They really need to make the rules more consistant so there are no blurred lines between passing and running plays regarding ball possession.
My pick however was a winner as of a result of the unfair call.
