NFL Picks and Predictions – Week 11

Vikings vs. Bears

The Chicago Bears have lost five of their last six games and the last three were by convincing margins.  A return home might help them get back on the right track, but the Minnesota Vikings come into this one having won two straight and appear to be gaining momentum going into the second half of the season.

I expect the Bears to perform better this week, but although the Vikings won’t blow the Bears out like the Patriots and Packers did, I think the Vikings will get a close win on the road in the NFC North.       NFL Picks
