Bears-Lions primer: What you need to know

There isn’t much to go off of, but if the Bears can’t win against the Lions on Sunday, it will officially be the worst start of a John Fox-coached Bears team. The Bears went 0-3 to start the 2015 season but pulled out a 22-20 win in Week 4 against the Raiders. You have to go all the way back to the Dick Jauron era to match this kind of early-season failure: his 2003 team is the last to start the season 0-3, and his 2000 team began the season 0-4 before getting their first win in Week 5.
