Detroit — As the bones of the turkeys around Metro Detroit were being picked clean Thanksgiving afternoon, the Chicago Bears polished off the Detroit Lions by picking off quarterback Matthew Stafford twice in the fourth quarter of a 23-16 victory at Ford Field.
The Lions (4-7) had tied the game at 16 with 7:45 left in the fourth quarter on a chip-shot field goal from Matt Prater after stalling out just short of the goal line. And after the defense forced a quick three-and-out, the offense had an opportunity to maintain the momentum and retake the lead the team lost earlier in the quarter.
