The Chicago Bears are aiming to build on their success today.
After a thrilling 59-37 victory against the Carolina Panthers, they are set to face the 1-0 Minnesota Vikings in their first home game and NFC North clash of the season this afternoon at Soldier Field in Chicago.
Vegas has given Ben Johnson’s reigning division champions a 5.5-point advantage over their Midwest competitors.
Much of the game’s outcome could depend on the status of Vikings quarterback Kyler Murray, who was injured in Week 1.
His injury allowed backup Carson Wentz to step in, and he led the Vikings to a strong 39-22 win over the Green Bay Packers.
