The Chicago Bears have had some big games this season, but none bigger than this Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings. With consecutive comeback wins, there’s some national buzz around the Bears, and a win in Minneapolis will go a long way towards keeping that going. Chicago has won six of their last seven, but they have yet to win a division game, having lost to the Lions in Week 2 and to the Vikings in the season opener.
A win will keep the (6-3) Bears in the NFC playoff mix, keep them ahead of the (5-3-1) Green Bay Packers, and it’ll put some pressure on the (6-3) Detroit Lions to maintain their slim NFC North lead. The (4-5) Vikings are fighting to get back to .500 and send a message to the division that they intend to be a factor.
