    The Vikings currently have the longest active streak of not being shut out. I'm not saying its impossible, but I wouldn't put money on it.

    Chicago deserves to be favored based on their play so far this year and the fact that they are the reigning division champs, but I don't think it will be a cake walk for them. Hopefully they will underestimate the Vikings and we can catch them by surprise.

    If we beat vikes, especially if we blow them out, they will say vikes only were 20-0 cuz they played weak washington and carolina sans steve smith, and that we still arent legit.</div>
    I'd say Minnesota is the NFC equivalent to Miami right now. They're just on the cusp of being a playoff contender. I did pick them to win the division, so I expect them to only improve as the season progesses.

    Honestly I think Chicago wins this one and wins it by a nice margin. Their defense is the best in the league and their offense is on fire. I expect Minnesota to slow down the Bears offense and bring them back to "reality" but their is no way the Vikings offense can do much on the Bears D. The Bears D will probably slow down Chester Taylor and the WR's in Minnesota are not good enough to beat the Bears secondary. I think Chicago wins by 10.

    I think the Vikings D is underrated & if given a short field their offense could put enough points to upset Chicago.

    Any NFL team can win every week. So, except for detroit and oakland (Not really NFL teams, more like minor league teams), everyone playing even the top team in the league can win.
