The Bears (3-7) enter this game looking to snap their five-game losing streak. Their latest loss was a 16-13 defeat to a Ravens team that was missing Lamar Jackson due to an illness. Andy Dalton came on in relief of an injured Justin Fields in the third quarter with the Bears down 6-0 before being able to throw two touchdown passes in his first game action since October 10th.
The Lions (0-9-1) come into their latest Thanksgiving day game after suffering a 13-10 loss to the Browns. Detroit was held scoreless for the first 42 minutes of the game before D'Andre Swift broke a 57-yard touchdown run to give the Lions some life. Unfortunately, all they could muster offensively after that was a 43-yard field goal.
Detroit has lost their last four Thanksgiving day games with two of those losses coming courtesy of the Bears. These two teams faced each other in week 4 with the Bears taking that game, 24-14.

Bears vs Lions fantasy picks and odds
Bears: Dalton back as their starting quarterback could help jump start their offense as Justin Fields averaged just a 71.5 passer rating as a starter going 2-6. Wide receivers Marquise Goodwin and Darnell Mooney are each coming off 100-yard games. For Mooney will be looking for a repeat performance of the Bears' week four win over the Lions where he caught five passes for 125 yards.
Lions: Detroit doesn't offer much to fantasy owners. However, D'Andre Swift is their most consistent contributor. He's coming off a 136-yard, one touchdown performance against the Browns. Swift also leads the team with six touchdowns. If you need a tight end T.J. Hockenson is the Lions leading receiver overall and caught six passes last week for 51 yards.
Betting: The Bears are 3-point road favorites against the Lions. The over/under is 41.5.
