The Bears are locked into their spot but the Vikings are still looking to clinch. I think they need the win to do so and the line shows what people expect of the Bears effort.

Minnesota looks like it is heading back to the playoffs and if they play to potential maybe they are a factor there like they were a year ago.
Chicago Bears
No matter what happens in the playoffs this has been a very good season for the Bears. They are winning again and you can see how this team will be a contender for a while.
A lot of their success this season stems from a defense that is third in the league in points allowed. They have been able to use that unit to set up the offense all season long.

It might have been a little more encouraging to score more than 14 points last week in the win over San Francisco. The offense was not great, but they almost never feel the need to force things because of their defense.
This one is likely to be pretty vanilla. Not only are the Bears locked in the playoffs but there is even a chance these two play in the first round I think.
Minnesota Vikings
I feel like the Vikings fell out of the national story of the NFL so early it is weird that here we are in week 17 with them still having a chance. I believe it is as simple as win the game and they are in.
Whether they make it or not this is going to be a tough season to figure out. The numbers all kind of look where they should be but the wins have not been there like they were a year ago.

The defense may not be living up to preseason expectations but they have still given up only 21ppg – which is good for 7th. The offensive numbers are solid even thought they have struggled running the ball all season.
Kirk Cousins is a much maligned quarterback. The kind that can put up numbers but is never going to be elite in terms of wins and losses. This is a spot he can work on that.
