Venue: Soldier Field — Chicago, Ill.
Coverage: ABC/ESPN

After losing two of their past three games, the Vikings cannot afford another slip-up if they wish to make the playoffs. They seem determined to make sure every game comes down to the final drive. However, with Kirk Cousins sporting a historic 1-9 record on Monday Night Football, it would be wise for them to not do that this week. Instead, they should feed the ball to Dalvin Cook, who seems determined to make his on-field play wash away the headlines from off-field situations.

The Bears, however, are playing much better than the start of the season. They have quite a few playmakers out, but the improved play of Justin Fields and the expanded playbook he can handle has led to more offensive success. While their 30 points last week should mostly be attributed to their special teams unit, Fields still put up over 300 total yards and two touchdowns. He must play his sharpest game of the season for them to pull the upset tonight, though it is fully possible.

According to the model, betting the game total under 44 is the best bet to place, giving it an expected ROI of 6.2%. This makes plenty of sense for the Bears, as the under is 8-5 for them this season. They will look to run the ball with efficiency tonight, controlling the clock and keeping the Vikings offense off the field. As for Minnesota, the over is hitting for them often, but Cousins’ 14 touchdowns to nine turnovers in 10 Monday Night Football games could lead to too many mistakes.
