Keep your eye on ...
Air Orton: The Bears quarterback had career highs in passing yards, completion percentage and passer rating in Week 5. He wasn't alone. The Lions have allowed six opposing quarterbacks this season to establish a career-high passer rating.

Detroit's demeanor: Losing is starting to wear thin on the Lions and players are showing frustation at not being able to get into the win column. They will have to keep their anxiety in check against a Bears team that likes to attack early in hopes of cracking a team's confidence.

The Lions' balancing act: Coming into the season, Detroit planned on rushing the ball a lot more than they had in the previous two years under offensive coordinator Mike Martz. So far, it has not worked out that way. The Lions' early deficits have caused them to call the fewest runs per game of any team in the league.
