Bears Boost NFC North Title Chances With Win Over Vikings on SNF

The Bears picked up a critical win in the NFC North race with a 25–20 win over the Vikings in Chicago in a huge Sunday night matchup.

Chicago now leads the division by 1.5 games.

The Bears' (7–3) victory was locked up by a late field goal from Cody Parkey, who last week missed four kicks. His field goal with over two minutes to play in the fourth quarter made it a two-score game, securing the win for Chicago.

The Chicago defense dominated Minnesota (5–4–1), forcing three turnovers. While the Bears also had three turnovers, the Vikings failed to capitalize on them.
