Lions Week 13 preview: Breaking down Bears’ offensive, defensive schemes

The Detroit Lions (10-1) will take on the Chicago Bears (4-7) on Thanksgiving Day in Week 13. For the Lions, they’re riding a nine-game winning streak, while the Bears have lost their last five. The Bears made a change at offensive coordinator ahead of Week 11, and while they’re still working out how things will be different, they do look more efficient after a couple of changes in their approach.

Let’s take a look at the Bears' coaching staff and how their offensive and defensive schemes operate.

Colts head coach: Matt Eberflus

Eberflus began coaching in 1992 at the University of Toledo and broke into the NFL with the Browns in 2009 working under head coach Eric Mangini and defensive coordinator Rob Ryan.
