There's no wind in the Windy City for this divisional finale with sunshine and 35 degrees. Minnesota's passing offense is fifth in the NFL with 258.9 yards per game behind QB Kirk Cousins (28 TDs, 14 INTs). They can finish second in their conference with a win and a San Francisco loss. The defense is terrible (22-11 run OVER the total) surrendering the second-most yards (396.8 pg) and points (25.9 pg). The Vikings are 14-3 OVER the total against losing teams, as well as 54-34 OVER versus rush defenses that allow 4.5+ yards per carry. Chicago's defense is the worst in the NFL in points allowed (27.1 pg) and on third down (48.7%). The defense has packed it in surrendering an average of 31.1 points over the last seven contests (5-1 run OVER). And Chicago is 8-2 OVER the total against pass defenses that allow a completion percentage of 61% or higher. Take Minnesota/Chicago OVER the total.
