Premium Pick

Both teams are out of the playoff picture, but Chicago is in better form after winning its last two games while the Vikings have lost two in a row to the Rams and Packers while now covering in either of them. Minnesota appeared to have given up on the season while losing 37-10 to Green Bay, and backup Sean Mannion was 22 of 36 for 198 yards and a touchdown, but the Vikings managed just 27 yards rushing. Justin Fields was going to start, but now he has been placed on the COVID-19 list and either Nick Foles or Andy Dalton will start this game after they each played in Chicago's last two victories. The Bears are 7-3 ATS their past 10 games after winning by at least 14 points, and they held the Giants to just 151 yards of offense and minus-10 yards passing in winning 29-3 last week. The Vikings are 3-9 ATS as favorites and 3-8 ATS their last 11 home games overall. Also, Minnesota is 1-7 ATS versus teams with losing records and 2-6 ATS after giving up at least 30 points in its previous game. Play the Bears.
