For just the second time this season, the Chicago Bears (4-6) will face a NFC North opponent this season as they welcome the Minnesota Vikings (8-2) to Soldier Field, looking to break their four-game losing streak. Looking to get off their skid and bury their heartbreaking losses to the Washington Commanders in Week 7 and Green Bay Packers last week, the Bears, with little playoff hope left, will just be looking to play spoiler against their divisional foes.
After losing their rookie first-round quarterback J.J. McCarthy before the season, the Vikings turned to veteran Sam Darnold and behind head coach Kevin O'Connell, they have been one of the biggest surprises this year.
