Vikings at Bears picks: How well will Bears rookie QB Caleb Williams stand up to Vikings defense’s pressure?
Members of the Pioneer Press sports staff who cover the Vikings forecast Sunday’s game in Chicago:
DANE MIZUTANI
Vikings 24, Bears 17: It’s not going to be pretty. It rarely is at Soldier Field. The difference is that the Vikings should be able to rattle rookie quarterback Caleb Williams.
JOHN SHIPLEY
Bears 24, Vikings 23: Chicago is a team fighting its coaching staff right now, with bad decisions costing them games against good Green Bay and Washington teams. They finally figure it out.
CHARLEY WALTERS
Vikings 30, Bears 20: Dispirited Bears are on their way to a head coaching change for 2025. Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell on his way to a contract extension.
