#ustrend #webstory Chicago Bears vs. Detroit Lions #darakhonline

A game on Thursday means a short week and a quick turnaround, giving players less time to recover from injury. That's a problem for both Detroit and Chicago this week, but the

Lions in particular are dealing with a number of injuries. The Lions are without starting cornerback Carlton Davis III (knee), left tackle Taylor Decker (knee) and wide receiver

Kalif Raymond (foot). Davis and Decker are out today, and Raymond was placed on injured reserve on Wednesday, meaning he will miss at least the next four games. The Lions have

signed wide receiver Maurice Alexander from the practice squad. In Raymond's absence, he could take over the punt return duties today. Rookie cornerback Terrion Arnold is back

after missing last week's game with a groin injury. It will be interesting to see what the Lions do to replace Davis. They could use Kindle Vildor again, like they did Sunday in

Indianapolis, or play veteran Khalil Dorsey there, but Campbell also said moving Amik Robertson to outside and Emmanuel Moseley in nickel could also be an option to play. Detroit

named running back David Montgomery and wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown as questionable to play today, but both players are optimistic. The records between these two are not the

same, but the red zone stats for Detroit and Chicago are very similar. It has been a strength for both clubs all season. Detroit is No. 2 in red zone defense (40.0 percent), while

Chicago ranks No. 4 (41.0). Both are tied for second with four interceptions in the red zone. Offensively, the Lions are No. 4 in converting red zone trips into touchdowns (68.9),

while the Bears are No. 5 (65.4). Which team can win in the red zone today? The big difference in Detroit's win last week against Indianapolis was that the Lions were 3-4 in the

red zone and Indy was 0-2.
