Chicago (3-7) at Detroit (0-9-1)

9:30 a.m. Thursday, KVVU-5

■ Line: Bears -3, total 41½

■ Bears player to watch: QB Andy Dalton. The 11-year veteran is starting in place of injured rookie Justin Fields. Dalton filled in for Fields when he hurt his ribs last week. Dalton was 11 of 23 for 201 yards and two TDS against Baltimore. The three-time Pro Bowler started the season’s first two games before going out with a knee injury.

■ Lions player to watch: RB D’andre Swift. Even though the Lions do not have another consistent threat on offense, Swift keeps making plays. Swift had a career-high 136 yards rushing last week and has run for 266 yards and a TD over the last two games. He leads all RBS with 53 receptions. ■ Key matchup: Swift vs. Chicago’s run defense. Detroit has come close to finally winning the last two weeks — tying at Pittsburgh and losing by three points at

Cleveland — because Swift has been able to run effectively. The Bears have given up 100-plus yards rushing in each of their last five losses.
