DETROIT — The Bears were outclassed by the Lions on Sunday, setting a franchise record with their ninth-straight loss and providing only one piece of optimism not named Justin Fields: that, mercifully, there’s only one more of these games left.
The Bears’ 41-10 loss at Ford Field felt like a new low. In a span of almost exactly two quarters — from the 6:48 mark of the first frame to the 6:44 mark of the third — the Lions scored 38 points. Receiver Chase Claypool, active for the first time in a month, played only a select few downs. By the end of the first quarter, injuries forced the Bears to use their third right guard of game.
