Evan McLean and Ross Read were back on their microphones in their regular Tuesday time slot, breaking down all things Chicago Bears and talking through the excruciating loss in Motown.
The Bears hung around as long as they could, but they were outmatched and ultimately lost to the Detroit Lions, 52-21.
Detroit head coach Dan Campbell seemed to take the game personally, as he, his coaches, and his players all desperately wanted to make a statement. Campbell even predicted the win early in the week. The buzz surrounding Ben Johnson’s return to Detroit, and all the questions surrounding Detroit after its season-opening loss in Green Bay, seemingly irked the Lions, and they delivered.
The game was a reminder that Ben Johnson will need some time to remake this Bears team in his image, and also a reminder that this team may not be as talented as we hoped.
