Vikings -6.5 as they travel to Soldier Field to play the Bears. The Bears have won 4 of 5 vs. the Vikings 6 of 10, and the Vikings will look to win by a touchdown or more something they have only done 1 of the last 10 meetings. The Vikings 12 of 13 games have been decided by one possession, they are 2-5 on the road. The Vikings can move up to 7th and the final playoff spot with a win tonight. Cousins is 3-4 vs. the Bears, 3-2 at Soldier Field, with 9 TD and 5 INT.
It is Justin Fields first time seeing the Vikings we will see if he can keep up with how well Trubisky and Foles were doing against Minnesota. Their defense has allowed opposing QBs to have a 100+ rating in 7 of last 8 games. This team has lost 7 of last 8 games, lone win in Detroit.
The total has seen a lot of action on the over going from 43.5 to 45.5 with some 78% of the action on that over. This game is a must win for the Vikings and what happens may well depend on how well the Bears show up, they have lost their last two by double digits and went through a streak earlier in the year of losing 3 straight by double digits.
My prediction 30-20 Vikings.
