The 11-2 Minnesota Vikings will host the Chicago Bears on Monday Night Football. The Vikings defeated the Bears in a thrilling overtime fashion on Nov. 24 at Soldier Field when Minnesota won 30-27.
There is more on the line than just beating their NFC North foe, this time. Looking at playoff implications for the week, the Vikings could clinch a playoff spot in three different ways.
- Vikings win or tie
- Los Angeles Rams loss or tie
- Seattle loss or tie
Obviously, Minnesota holds its own playoff life and could seal the deal with a win, but the Vikings might already be in the playoff if the Rams or Seahawks fall this weekend. The Rams are set to play at San Francisco on Thursday Night Football and Seattle will host Green Bay on Sunday Night Football. Minnesota could become a Packer fan for maybe the first time in its life.
Primetime games will have a ton of implications in Week 15.
