The Minnesota Vikings and Chicago Bears will face off in Week 6 of the 2023 NFL season on Sunday, October 15th at Soldier Field in Chicago, Illinois. Both teams enter this game with a record of 1-4, but the Bears are coming off a win over the Washington Commanders, while the Vikings are coming off a loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.

The Vikings will be without their star wide receiver, Justin Jefferson, who suffered a hamstring injury in last week’s game. Jefferson is one of the best wide receivers in the NFL, and his absence will be a big blow to the Vikings’ offense.

Despite Jefferson’s absence, the Vikings are still the favorites to win this game. They have a better offense than the Bears, and they are playing on the Bears’ home field. However, the Vikings have struggled to win in Chicago in recent years, so this game will not be easy for them.

Vikings without Jefferson

The Vikings will be without their star wide receiver, Justin Jefferson, who suffered a hamstring injury in last week’s game. The Vikings’ Jefferson is one of the best wide receivers in the NFL, and his absence will be a big blow to the Vikings’ offense.

Bears Look to build on Momentum

All in all, the Bears are coming off a win over the Washington Commanders. Meanwhile, they will be looking to build on that momentum in this game. The Bears and Justin Fields have a young and talented team. Furthermore, they are starting to come together.

Vikings Need to Get Back on Track

The Vikings are 1-4, and they need to start winning games if they want to have any chance of making the playoffs. The Vikings have a lot of talent on their roster overall. Yet, they have not been able to put it all together this season. In the end, they will need to get back on track this season if they want to make it. 

Vikings’ offense vs. Bears’ defense

Finally, the Vikings have a good offense, even without Justin Jefferson. They are led by quarterback Kirk Cousins and running back Dalvin Cook, and they will be a strong force against the Chicago Bears. In the end, the Bears have a young and improving defense. Yet, all in all, they have struggled to stop the pass this season.

Vikings vs Bears Prediction

In conclusion, I predict that the Vikings will win the game by a score of 24-20. In the end, the Vikings have a better offense than the Bears. Yet, they are playing on the Bears’ home field, but we still think the Vikings have it in the bag. However, the Vikings have struggled to win in Chicago in recent years, so this game will not be easy for them.
