Vikings vs. Bears: Live updates, score, results, highlights, for Sunday's NFL game Wednesday, January 1, 2020 Get ready for an NFC North battle as the Minnesota Vikings and the Chicago Bears will face off at 1 p.m. ET on Sunday at U.S. Bank Stadium. Neither of those teams managed to put together many points in their previous contests, so their meeting could be a low-scoring affair. It looks like Minnesota must have gotten on Santa's naughty list since the team didn't end up with the win they were expected to receive last week. They came up short against the Green Bay Packers, falling 23-10. QB Kirk Cousins had a pretty forgettable game, throwing one interception with only 3.94 yards per passing attempt. Wednesday, January 1, 2020 Meanwhile, a victory for Chicago just wasn't in the stars last week as the squad never even grasped a temporary lead. They got maybe a little too into the holiday spirit this year, gifting the Kansas City Chiefs an easy 26-3 victory. Both of these teams will be looking to put their recent losses behind them and walk away with a victory. A pair of defensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: The Vikings enter the contest with only seven rushing touchdowns allowed, good for third best in the NFL. As for Chicago, they rank fourth in the league when it comes to passing touchdowns allowed, with only 17 on the season. We'll find out if either of these strengths ends up making the difference in the matchup. The Minnesota Vikings are locked into the No. 6 seed heading into the NFC playoffs next week, mathematically eliminated from the NFC North division title after a loss to the Green Bay Packers last week. With nothing to play for in Week 17, Minnesota has the luxury of resting starters heading into the wild-card round. Wednesday, January 1, 2020 Minnesota will rest a bulk of its starters for Sunday's game against the Chicago Bears, per ESPN's Courtney Cronin. One of the starters will be quarterback Kirk Cousins, who would end his regular season with a 10-5 record, completing 69.1 percent of his passes for 3,603 yards, 26 touchdowns and six interceptions for a 107.4 passer rating (a career-high). Cousins has started 79 consecutive games since the start of the 2015 season, the third-longest active streak in the NFL. Not playing Cousins could present a problem for the Vikings, who played one of their worst games of the year in a 23-10 loss to the Packers. The Vikings offense struggled without Dalvin Cook, with a season-low 139 yards and just 87 passing yards in the defeat. Minnesota went just 4 for 15 on third down and had the ball for just 22:28. Perhaps playing the starters in a meaningless game will get the Vikings into a rhythm heading into the playoffs, where they would face either the Packers, New Orleans Saints or the Seattle Seahawks on the road. If the Packers beat the Detroit Lions, the Vikings would play the Seahawks if Seattle was to upset the 49ers Sunday. Starting in place of Cousins would be Sean Mannion, who has thrown just 53 passes in the NFL, completing 62.3 percent of them for 253 yards and one interception. He has played just five snaps for the Vikings this year as Sunday would be his first NFL start since 2017. Cook is listed as out and rookie Alexander Mattison is ruled questionable for Sunday's game, which could lead to the Vikings starting Mike Boone for the second consecutive week. Boone had 11 carries for 28 yards in his first career start last week. With all the Vikings injuries, rest may be the best way to get ready for the playoffs ... regardless of how Minnesota looked the last time Cousins and the starters took the field.
