The Detroit Lions are heading to Soldier Field to face the Chicago Bears in an NFC showdown.

Although this game doesn't affect the division standings, since Chicago has already won the NFC North, the Bears will be motivated in Week 18 for two reasons.

Not only will the Bears be fighting to hold onto their No. 2 seed, but there may be some revenge sought against Detroit. Back in Week 2, Chicago suffered a 52-21 loss to the Lions. 

This beatdown is undoubtedly on the mind of former Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, who will look to win his first game against Dan Campbell since leaving Detroit. 

As for the Lions, they have nothing to play for except pride, which for the city of Detroit is essential.
