Week 17 Predictions

PFN Rolfe Bears vs. Lions Prediction, Odds, and Picks for Week 17 (Bears vs. Lions Prediction - Lions 28, Bears 24):  https://www.profootballnetwork.com/bears-vs-lions-prediction-odds-pick-nfl-betting-week-17-2022/

SN Iyer (Bears at Lions (-5.5, 52 o/u):  The Lions got a defensive wake-up call by getting pounded on the ground by the Panthers. That should give the Bears' confidence on the road knowing Justin Fields can rebound in a more favorable rushing matchup while leaning on David Montgomery and Khalil Herbert. But the Lions can counter with more offensive explosiveness with Jared Goff in a complete comfort zone at home.  Pick: Lions win 31-27 but fail to cover the spread.):  https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nfl/news/nfl-picks-predictions-against-spread-week-17/lvmtoxr6x2sosa6zwfx3vh7p

SN Bender (Chicago Bears at Detroit Lions (-5.5):  The Lions allowed 320 rushing yards in a Week 16 loss to Carolina, their worst showing since allowing 258 yards against the Bears in Week 10. Detroit still has playoff hopes, however, and they are at home where they have won three of their last four. We're counting on a Lions' bounce-back against a spoiler trying to break a nine-game losing streak.   Pick: Lions 31, Bears 24):  https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nfl/news/nfl-picks-predictions-week-17/xizurtfna8kjtxgqiutn8coc

Big lead (LIONS (-6) over BEARS:  Detroit needs to win two football games and get a little help to make the playoffs. Outside of Justin Fields' legs, there isn't much for them to be concerned about. Getting back indoors will do wonders for Jared Goff and his assortment of weapons. Lions 32, Bears 19):  https://www.thebiglead.com/posts/nfl-week-17-predictions-picks-spread-lines-01gn7nwta94y

CBS Prisco (Chicago Bears at Detroit Lions (-5.5):  The Lions are coming off a bad loss to the Panthers, while the Bears are playing out the string. Detroit needs to win out to have a chance to make the postseason. It was awful last week against the Panthers, but back home against the Bears should get it back on track. The Lions win it behind a strong offensive showing.  Pick: Lions 31, Bears 23):  https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/priscos-week-17-nfl-picks-bills-edge-bengals-in-high-scoring-thriller-packers-keep-playoff-hopes-alive/


AP Pro Maaddi (Chicago (plus 5 1/2) at Detroit:  The Lions (7-8) couldn’t stop the run against the Panthers and now face Justin Fields with their playoff hopes on the line.  LIONS, 30-23):  https://pro32.ap.org/article/cowboys-kick-week-17-huge-road-favorites-titans

NFL.com Week 17 NFL game picks: Eagles clinch NFC's No. 1 seed; Giants secure playoff berth (Lions win 31-24:  NFL.com Week 17 NFL game picks: Eagles clinch NFC's No. 1 seed; Giants secure playoff berth (Lions win 31-24:  The Lions' defense was torn apart by Carolina last week. Not great heading into their rematch with the Bears, who racked up 258 yards on the ground against Detroit in a narrow loss back in mid-November. That’s still not enough for me to pick an upset here. Jared Goff is going to have all day to throw, and Lions coordinator Ben Johnson has proven he’ll scheme up open receivers.):  https://www.nfl.com/news/week-17-nfl-game-picks-2022-nfl-season

PFT’s NFL Week 17 2022 Picks (Bears (+6) at Lions - MDS’s take: The Lions’ run defense looked awful on Sunday, which makes the Bears a dangerous opponent for them, but as they cling to their playoff hopes they’ll turn in a much better game.  MDS’s pick: Lions 28, Bears 17.  Florio’s take: Detroit remains in the running for an unexpected playoff berth. The Bears are good enough to cover the spread against most teams, however.  Florio’s pick: Lions 30, Bears 27.):  https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2022/12/29/pfts-nfl-week-17-2022-picks/

Football Meteorology For NFL Week 17 (Chicago Bears at Detroit Lions (-5.5): Chicago has won once in the last 13 weeks. Their top pass rusher is rookie safety Jaquan Brisker. Their top receiver for this game is Equanimeous St. Brown, but he could be out with a concussion. The Lions have the better St. Brown brother in Amon-Ra, and the Bears defense will struggle to stop him. Good test for the Lions defense after an abysmal outing in Week 16--can they rebound against Justin Fields and a bunch of practice squad refugees?  Lions 30, Bears 17):  https://football.realgm.com/analysis/3535/Football-Meteorology-For-NFL-Week-17
