From a handicapper...

The ultimate defensive battle is in store Sunday when the Vikings meet the Bears. This huge NFC North division showdown between two 3-3 teams has a lot riding on it. The Vikings and Bears win games with similar styles. Both rely heavily on their defenses. Minnesota is giving up just over 19 points/game while Chicago is yielding just over 18 points/game. These defensive averages will drop after a big defensive battle Sunday. Minnesota cannot throw the ball, and the Bears stop the run extremely well. Chicago has found their running game behind Matt Forte to take the pressure off of Kyle Orton, but the Bears have not faced a run defense nearly as good as the Vikings Run-D is this season. If you like defensive football, then you will love this match-up Sunday. The UNDER is 23-8-1 in the Vikings� last 32 games following a S.U. win. The UNDER is 4-0 in the Bears� last 4 October games. As the whether gets colder, the Bears� defense gets even stronger. Take the UNDER 38 points here
