1994 NFC Wild Card Playoff Game - Chicago Bears v Minnesota Vikings Photo by Joseph Patronite/Getty Images

The Chicago Bears (2-2) have alternated wins and losses since opening up with an unexpected victory in week 1, so if that holds true then they’ll pull off the upset against the NFC North leading Minnesota Vikings (3-1) today. The Vikes meanwhile, have given up the sixth-most yards in the league so far, so perhaps the Bears will get their stumbling offense on track.

Both of these teams are in year one of a regime change, but Minnesota’s approach to the 2022 season was a bit different than Chicago’s tear-it-down method of rebuilding.

Here’s everything you need to know about this week 5 matchup.
