Allen Robinson is back, baby!
Robinson has three catches for 98 yards, with the latest being this spectacular touchdown grab:

Robinson declared himself 100 percent at the start of the week and he sure looks it!
It’s a heckuva throw by Mitch Trubisky (on 3rd-and-15, no less!) and a better play on the ball by Robinson, who worked his way back to secure the catch and score the touchdown. It’s Robinson’s first trip to the end zone since Week 6 against the Miami Dolphins and the timing couldn’t have been any better. We’re just one quarter in and Robinson already has a season-high 98 receiving yards and I can’t help but think more are on the horizon.
As for Trubisky, he is out at Soldier Field throwing dimes all over the field. He has completed 9 of 10 passes for 139 yards, surpassing his yardage total from last week against the Buffalo Bills with just one quarter of work. Tack on that touchdown and Trubisky has a 152.1 passer rating in the early going.
The Lions moved the ball well on their first drive before sputtering and eventually punting. But if the Bears can keep up this pace, it might not matter what the Lions do when they have the ball.
