On Monday night, the Chicago Bears were at risk of becoming the first ever team to lose four nationally televised games before their bye in NFL history. A season plagued by injuries and controversies didn’t look like it would have a reprieve against the Minnesota Vikings.
Well, it turns out that having your starting quarterback in the fold as well as having an overall solid game plan does wonders.
The Bears dominated the Vikings 20-10 in a game where the result doesn’t tell the whole story. Never lacking hyperbole, that might have been the most complete game the Bears have played since the Lovie Smith era.
