Chicago has lost seven in a row and plays its third straight on the road, off a 38-13 loss at San Francisco. Rookie QB Caleb Williams has been sacked 56 times and faces a Minnesota defense that is eighth in the NFL with 40 sacks. The Bears have lost all six of their road games. The offense is 31st in total yards and on third down (33.89%). Meanwhile, Minnesota's offense is 11th in total yards and on third down, plus ninth in points, behind QB Sam Darnold (28 TDs, 10 INTs). The Vikings have won six in a row, are 6-1 at home, come off a 42-21 rout of Atlanta, and play their third straight consecutive home contest. Division games can be close with the bad teams finding a way to get up for rivals so I don't necessarily trust the Vikings to cover this large number. Play the Minnesota Vikings on the moneyline.
