Better late than never? That is the question pertaining to the Vikings. Following a 1-5 start, Minnesota has won two in a row. Most impressive was their upset of the Packers two weeks ago. Meanwhile, the Bears are in free-fall after a hot start. Chicago has lost three in a row. Accordingly, the Bears’ lack of a reliable quarterback threatens their playoff hopes. What angers Chicago fans is that their strong defense is going to waste. It is true that the Bears are still in the Pro Football Betting playoff hunt. In reality, Chicago isn’t a legit title contender.
