Week 6 picks: Who the experts are taking in Bears vs. Vikings

The Chicago Bears (1-4) will face the Minnesota Vikings (1-4) on Sunday, where the Bears will look to stack back-to-back wins.

Chicago is coming off an impressive 40-20 win over the Washington Commanders (2-3), which included a dominant first-half performance. The Justin Fields and DJ Moore connection thrived, the defense held on and the arrow is pointed up after the team got their first win of the season.

The Bears are 3-point home underdogs against the Vikings, according to BetMGM. But what do the experts think? Here’s a look:

Bill Bender – Bears 30, Vikings 25

Justin Jefferson went down with a non-contact injury, and the Vikings’ one-score luck has reversed this season. Kirk Cousins had led Minnesota to victories in his last three starts at Soldier Field, but Justin Fields is a hot quarterback all of a sudden – and has done a good job stopping the run in its last two games. Fields picks up his first career victory against Minnesota. It’s another step in the right direction.
