Mistakes pile up in bears 1st loss

Theo Spight wears a Lions hard hat, a jersey numbered "00" and after every touchdown scored by the home team at Ford Field, he grabs a microphone behind the end zone, and thrusts his deep voice into "Gridiron Heroes," the Lions' fight song.

Spight needs approximately 40 seconds to reach the end of each performance. Yet for a stretch of the second quarter Sunday, it would have been easy to think he somehow got stuck on loop.

Forwarddown the field! A charging team that will not yield …

Over and over again.

In a span of 11 minutes, 1 second, the Lions dumped 24 consecutive points on the Bears, turning an early 10-6 deficit into a commanding three-score lead. That tsunami carried the Lions to an all-too-easy40-32 victory.

And if the Bears spent much of their afternoon dizzied by Reggie Bush's open-field moves and Jay Cutler's four turnovers, Spight's repetitive encores had to further the agitation.

"This is the NFL," cornerback Tim Jennings said. "Any time you give a home team that momentum and that confidence, they're going to be tough to beat."

The Bears' bid for a perfect September went off the rails early in the second quarter. After running back Matt Forte provided a 10-6 lead with a 53-yard touchdown dash, the Lions erupted.

There was Bush darting through the middle of the Bears defense, spinning and juking and gliding through openings on his way to 139 rushing yards.
