Which bye week game are you most interested in?

For me it's Monday night:  Chicago vs. Philly.

Our next opponent is the Bears.  If they win this game, they will be 5-3 to our 6-2.  Which means that it will set them up to tie us if they can win that one as well.

 

Looking at our next 8 games in total, there are 4 that we "should" win.  If we can do that and win the next one on the road, it would put us at 11-5, and almost assuredly in the playoffs. 

 

So, I'm hoping that Chicago wins.  I don't want the Lions to get in by default, as much as I want them to get in.  I want a classic matchup next Sunday.  We'll be coming off our bye.  They'll be on short rest.  But, its at Soldier Field.  And, if Bears can win against Philly, it will be the NFL game of the week. 

 

We've raised eyebrows across the nation so far.  The Monday night win was amazing and the Lions are now relevant for national conversation.  I'd like to keep it that way.
