Winning the revenge game is not on head coach Dan Campbell’s checklist of things the Detroit Lions must do to defeat the Chicago Bears.
Campbell worries about everything, including the weather and pairings.
Campbell remarked, “I’m not worried about the whole revenge factor.” “Our hunger is growing. To win, we must triumph. We now also desire this.”
The Bears’ desire for revenge stems from how they fell to the Lions in their previous matchup. The Bears had almost controlled the game from the beginning until the Lions rallied for a victory with two touchdowns and a safety in the last 3:06.
“Justin Fields, man, he’s an issue,” Campbell remarked of the Bears quarterback before listing other Bears players that the Lions would find problematic. Campbell listed every member of the Bears defensive line.

“The problem is within the game, just like it is every other week,” Campbell stated. “From the schematics to the one-on-one matches.

“It will turn out well. This will be an exciting duel.
It’s not by accident that the Bears’ goal of making an impression in their past five games begins on Sunday at home against the Detroit Lions.
Upon their return from bye this week, the players showed head coach Matt Eberflus a renewed sense of zest as they started practice for the Lions at Soldier Field.

During this week’s press conference, Eberflus stated, “You can feel a motivation and optimism there.” “And without a doubt, the attention on our men there. That was palpable, as was the energy.
In the NFC North rankings, the Lions and Bears are positioned at opposite ends. With a 9-3 win-loss record and a three-game advantage over the Packers and Vikings in second place, the Lions remain undefeated.
With a 4-8 record, the Bears sit at the bottom of the North. On defense, though, especially with quarterback Justin Fields in his third season, they’ve improved.
The Bears are out for retribution after losing to the Lions at Ford Field in Week 11.
Up until the last 3:06 of the game, when the Lions scored two touchdowns and a safety, the Bears were in complete control.
“Our guys are wired in and want to perform well this week,” Eberflus stated
