    Chicago Minn

    I really Chicago here (-6)

    I think last weeks win (as lucky as it was that they were still in that game at GB) will lead to the bears turn around and I think they pick it up right where they left off and win this game by 2 scores at home. Griese looked like he knocked the rust off last week and with him controlling the game (instead of losing it like Rexxy) I can see Chicago getting back to form. With this game being in Chicago I really like the Chicago D to shut down the Minnesota running game and from there I dont see a lot of scenairos where Minnesota puts points on the board. This is my lock of the week unless the lines gets above 6.5!

    Minnesota is tough on defense and the have a game breaker Peterosn at RB, but I can't see Chicago losing at home stealing a win in GB. I think Chicago wins by at least 7.

    Your lock of the week = my fade of the week. I like the Vikings in this spot.

    Word here in MN is that Tavaris Jackson will start, and he isn't 100%. They still won't give Peterson enough touches to be a factor. The pass defense is no where near as good as the run defense. I think Chicago will role after knocking off Green Bay. Chicago is the pick.

    Bears Off is still awful and I have had my bad luck WK.

    The turnover ratio against my teams must have been -50

    The under is the play

    I was actually leaning toward the Vikings in this match up and most likely will be playing them +6.

    Taking the points in NFC Norris showdowns is usually an excellent idea!

    As much as I don't care for either teams. I think the Vikings win outright. GB was able to do a little running on the Bears in the first half, and Peterson is a pretty good runner. I'm going with the Vikings. I know Griese is looking better, but I don't see him pulling this one off. Well see I guess.

    I like the Vikes. Don't think the Bears are there yet.

    As shaky as Griese can be I like the Bears to cover.

    Bears by a touchdown. Minnesota's offense is way too one dimensional.

    I like the Vikings here because their defense is good and the Bears offense is terrible. I think this is a 3 point game in a division rival game. I think taking the Vikings in a teaser is even better because the Bears don't have a very good offense at all. I just cannot see the Bears winning by more than 10 points against anyone.

    Really don't get the Vikings backers here? I'm a Bears fan so I will admit that upfront although I did actually go against them last 2 weeks. Paid off w/Lions on the ML. Peterson is the only Vike threat and Urlacher/Briggs & Co. will be ready! Griese has a new toy in TE Olsen and should be able to have some success vs Vikes 30th rated pass defense. Benson may fumble the Vikes into the game but more likely that the Bears D and/or Hester picks up a score. Bears are also 14-4 ATS at home after facing GB!! Bears 23 Vikes 13
