It all started in 1961 when the Vikings faced off against the Bears for the first time.
In Minnesota’s first game as a franchise, the Vikings pulled off an upset victory over the Bears. Since then, there have been plenty of back-and-forth games and plenty of stars on both rosters.
Last time out, the Vikings got the best of the Bears, 19-13. Kirk Cousins did enough to put Chicago away and Minnesota got one of its best performances from its new-look defense. Minnesota is 61–56–2 all time in the series.
