The Chicago Bears aim to keep their momentum rolling as they travel to face the Minnesota Vikings this afternoon.
Chicago’s recent games have been tight, but they continue to find ways to come out on top. The Bears have won two straight and six of their last seven, while the Vikings have dropped three of their last four, including a home loss to the Ravens last week.
My Bears vs. Vikings predictions and NFL picks look for J.J. McCarthy to throw an interception against Chicago.

Bears vs Vikings prediction
Bears vs Vikings Best bet: J.J. McCarthy Over 0.5 interceptions (-148)
Minnesota Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy threw three interceptions in his first two games of the season before getting hurt, and once again has three picks in his last two games since returning from injury.
The Chicago Bears lead the entire league with 13 interceptions this season, including that one against McCarthy in Week 1. They’ve had an interception in six of nine games this season, and McCarthy has been turnover-prone this season.
I’ll take both of those trends to continue in this rivalry matchup.
Bears vs Vikings same-game parlay
In addition to our best bet, we're also fading McCarthy's passing yards prop. He had just 143 passing yards in Week 1 against the Bears, and was held to 158 yards or fewer in his first three games before reaching 248 in a loss to the Ravens last week.
The Vikings can put up points without McCarthy throwing for too many yards, and I like the Bears to get the road upset victory.

Bears vs Vikings game predictions
Bears vs Vikings moneyline prediction
The Bears are finding ways to win, and the Vikings are finding ways to lose. We’ll see how long it lasts, but I’ll back Caleb Williams and Chicago to pull off the upset win and sweep the season series against Minnesota.
Bears vs Vikings spread prediction
The Vikings have been too up-and-down recently for me to take them as favorites, even if they beat the Bears 27-24 in Chicago to open the season.
This should be a close game in Minnesota on Sunday afternoon, so I’ll take the Bears and the points here.
Bears vs Vikings Over/Under prediction
The Vikings have gone Over the total in seven of nine games, and the Bears have trended that way in five of nine thus far. There were 51 points in the first matchup, and I see another high-scoring affair this week.
Bears vs Vikings odds
