Because our OL is dominant! We get major push and it's our strongest bet--to just punch them in the mouth straight forward!

Barr is a shadow of his former self. He needed to tackle that guy short of the first down, and he had help.

No kidding. Not that it'll matter with how they're playing but no reason to make it any easier on Chicago than the Vikings already are.
