The problem with your record argument is the Vikings four wins are against the Lions (2), Bears at home, and the Chiefs at home. Their record is whole lot of meaningless at this point.
They haven't played the bears at home. The other win was against the chargers.

Of course Vegas odds account for more than records.

The score is 13-13 and there are 7+ minutes left in the game. Still not time to panic.

So.... Vegas odds are a more accurate barometer of how a matchup is going to go, then the two teams actual on field success? (facepalm)

Let's keep in mind that the Bears had 2 weeks to plan for the Vikes. So while their defense isn't great on paper, they had lots of time to game plan against us.

Yep, you're right. Point stands though, the Vikes haven't beaten anybody good enough to suggest that they themselves are a good team, nor that they should be expected to win in Chicago.

It's gonna be damn near impossible to win if the Bears score a TD here. Which is sad with this Bears defense.
