2. What can the Bears expect from the Vikings offense? Who’s the one player the Bears have to stop to slow down the Vikings offense?

Honestly, not a lot of good things. Minnesota is putting up an abysmal 2.6 yards per carry, which is the absolute worst in the NFL. As far as the passing game goes, Sam Bradford has proven that he can be accurate and make good decisions with the ball, but only when he has time.

Against the Eagles, the offensive line failed to get a strong push for the run game or protect their quarterback, so the success of the offense could hinge on the play of the Vikings left tackle, whether it is T.J. Clemmings or Jake Long.
