So tell me Bears, are you feeling lucky…!?  B)  

[Guest]

Yeah I don't agree with that, some dudes are showcasing for other teams and possibly other coaching staffs. Some are playing for pride. It's a division game, expect an ugly, close game 

[Guest]

The Vikes almost always play to the level of their opponents. I expect a close game and because it means more for the Vikes this season, I suspect they will stink more than they should.

KOC ball; when we are up we don't need to do anything fancy, so...
Will the Vikings score a TD in the 2nd half?

[Guest]

On paper a Vikings win,  in reality I expect the Vikes to struggle tonight,  possibly even lose. With a fully healthy team the first time around the Bears gave us a tough game,  not sure if the home field is enough to overcome the losses we have had since the first match-up.   I think this bears D is one that we would be better suited to have KC at QB, as good as the bears D is against the run,  they are dead last in sacks,  we will need to best them through the air and this is where Dobbs has shown weakness.

Vikings cover would end historic week for faves

NFL betting history can be made on "Monday Night Football" if the Minnesota Vikings can cover as 3-point favorites against the Chicago Bears.
Favorites have covered the spread in 12 of 15 games in Week 12, tying the record for most in a single week (Week 12 of 2017) in the Super Bowl era. According to ESPN Stats & Information, there has never been a week in the Super Bowl era in which favorites covered the spread in 13 games.
"Probably the biggest week [of the football season] for the customers," Craig Mucklow, vice president of trading for Caesars Sportsbook, said Sunday.
