Chicago Bears 10, Minnesota Vikings 36
The season just keeps getting uglier for the Chicago Bears (4-7) as they were embarrassed by Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings (10-1) Sunday. The Bears were able to keep it close for the first quarter and a half, but the Favre and the Vikings found their rhythm and it was all she wrote from there. The Vikings had a 24-7 halftime lead, a manageable deficit, but the Bears only managed a field goal in the second half and were blown out. Jay Cutler had another terrible game, throwing 1 touchdown and 2 interceptions for 147 yards on 18/23 passes. That brings Cutler’s interception total to 20 for the season, which already eclipses his career high even though they have only played 11 games this season. Matt Forte also continued his disappointing season, rushing for only 27 yards on 8 carries.
The Bears defense has been doing their best to keep them in games this season, but they were not ready for the Vikings high-powered offense. They let Favre have one of his best games of the season, as he threw for 3 touchdowns and 392 yards on 32/48 passes. They got very little pressure on Favre and he was able to sit back and pick apart the Bears’ secondary. They did do a decent job on Adrian Peterson, but he still finished the game with 85 yards and a touchdown on 25 carries. The Bears’ looked like they lost this game before it even started and they added another embarrassing blowout to their embarrassing season.
