Chicago
You can say what you want about the weather last week but the Bears were thoroughly outplayed by the New England Patriots. Lucky for them the Lions shocked the Packers so their slim lead in the NFC North is still in tact. This week they get division rival Minnesota who despite their stadium collapsing might actually be experiencing some calm with the Favre streak now over and done with.
The Bears gained only 138 yards of offense last week so if they want to win against the Vikings they might want to crack 200 on Monday night. They can’t blame it all on the weather because Brady and Co. managed to rack up close to 500 yards of total offense. As always it starts with Jay Cutler. He was brutal last week. I don’t have any numbers on this but if he struggles in the cold things could be even worse on Monday evening now that the game has been moved outside. 
Adding to the Bears challenges this week is that they haven’t won at Minnesota in a long time. All those previous games were on the fast track of the Metrodome so maybe the game moving will enable them to change their luck. This series usually has the home team winning so be careful backing the Bears whenever the spread is released.
Minnesota
Has the shine rubbed off Leslie Frazier? In an odd game played at Ford Field in Detroit the Vikings lost the first game of the Frazier era to the Giants 21-3. As if it couldn’t get any weirder Brett Favre was unable to answer the bell ending the streak and enabling Frazier to see how the team would play with Tavaris Jackson at the helm. The results weren’t great before Jackson left due to injury.
I am excited about rookie Joe Webb getting the nod this weekend. At this point he is more of an athlete than a field general but if the weather is going to be crazy he could have some success running on a snowy field. For his sake I hope that Adrian Peterson and Percy Harvin are healthy enough to go. Otherwise his only option might be going deep to Sydney Rice.
When you move a game to a new venue you never know what can happen. Last week Ford Field was dead but you have to think that this week the Vikings can expect a partisan crowd. Plus given how green Webb is it might make him more comfortable to play in a college environment. This is going to be a tough one to call. Lucky we have until Monday.
The Pick: There are so many unknown variables in play here. The one known is the Bears and I don’t like this team one bit. Back the Vikings and enjoy the show
