Why Chicago Bears Will Win

Where the hell was that all year?

All of a sudden, just when it seemed like everything was totally loss after a collapsed against Detroit and a six game losing streak, the Bears dominated Houston in a 36-7 win. Mitchell Trubisky was a real, live NFL quarterback, the running game was great – albeit on one great David Montgomery run – and it was a total wipeout.

The Vikings still can’t stop anyone from hitting the deep ball and turnovers are still an issue, but …

Why Minnesota Vikings Will Win

One big scoring dash doesn’t mean the Bears have a running game. It is starting to work better and Chicago really is starting to do a little more, but it’s still a problem, and Trubisky is still the quarterback.

The running game only came up with 41 yards in the first meeting against the Vikings – 19-13 loss – and the 149 yards of total offense were a season low. That’s not happening this time around, but the Vikings offense should be able to keep things moving with a good balance and one of the best running games in the NFC. That means …

Fantasy Football Player To Watch

RB Dalvin Cook, Minnesota 
He’s still on a yardage tear, but if you need touchdowns, that’s been a problem. He was able to hit Chicago for 96 yards on a tough 30 carries with no scores, and that kicked off a run of two touchdowns in five games. Green Bay and Houston were able to run a bit on the Bears, now it’s Cook’s turn.

What’s Going To Happen

Chicago played with its swag back over the last two weeks offensively. Trubisky has been good, the running game has been shockingly great, and the team really and truly is in a position to dream of a playoff spot if it can win this week and keep it going.

The Minnesota offensive balance will take over, the defense will come up with enough third down stops to take over, and the team will be right on the edge of a possible playoff spot with a little help.

Why Minnesota Vikings Will Win

The Chicago Bears have stopped being so magical.

They weren’t very good over the first six weeks of the season, but they always found a way to get it done. Whether it was a late rally, or a key stop, or a dropped pass by the other side, they kept on winning.

That magic is gone in a three game losing streak with the O coming up short way too much. The coaching staff is changing up the play calling, but will that help the league’s worst running game? Can the turnovers stop after giving it up five times over the last three games? On the flip side, Minnesota has found its mojo with Dalvin Cook and the running game rolling, but …

Why Chicago Bears Will Win

How do you stop Minnesota? You stop the running game.

That’s easier said than done, but the Chicago run defense has been able to hold up well enough to be fine. It’ll give up yards and the defense is the best in the league at coming up with third down stops. The group will give up a decent day from Cook, but don’t expect the gashes he’s getting against everyone else.

Fantasy Football Player To Watch

WR Allen Robinson, Chicago
With the many injuries in the Vikings secondary, look for Nick Foles to funnel passes to Robinson, who’s averaging close to ten targets per game, catching 17 of 20 targets the past three games. With a young, battered group of defensive backs, Minnesota will get hit hard.

What’s Going To Happen

Cook and the hot Viking offense will have a few good moments, but the great running game will suddenly be bottled up. Kirk Cousins will hit a few deep passes, but overall, the Chicago defense will keep this in range. The Bears aren’t going to be Kansas City all of a sudden, but the O will start to be a bit fresher.
