The Chicago Bears look to stay hot when they visit the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday afternoon.
It’s been touch-and-go in recent weeks, but the Bears have found ways to win. They’ve won two straight and six of their last seven, while the Vikings have lost three of four, including at home to the Ravens last week.
My Bears vs. Vikings predictions are looking at 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.
