    Calvin Johnson had two touchdown catches in the second half and the Detroit Lions now sit atop the NFC North thanks to a 21-19 win over the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field on Sunday.

    Matthew Stafford passed for just 219 yards on 18-of-35 attempts with an interception, but did have three touchdown passes as the Lions (6-3) came out of the bye week with their second straight win.

    DaBears22's Take: The Bears had a chance at the end but two failed two point conversions sealed their fate. Cutler really wasn't the same qb throughout the game, perhaps he rushed his return to the field. In the end doesn't matter, the Lions outplayed the Bears today. Megatron set a franchise recored 63rd td catch.

    Big win for the Lions who get the tie-breaker with the season sweep of the Bears.

    Agreed dabears. Every time he would get touched, he was in pain and i think it affected his play.

    by halftime, i was thinking mccown might have been the better option

    yeah, outside of two throws to Marshall, Cutler did not look comfortable today. It really ended up hurting them on offense almost all day. You just wonder what could have happened had McCown gotten in there sooner. You also have to wonder if McCown is a better option than a healthy Cutler.
