Key Factors
Favors Over
At a -3-point disadvantage, the Bears are underdogs this week, implying more of an emphasis on throwing than their standard game plan.

In logging a whopping 1.03 interceptions per game this year, Justin Fields ranks among the bottom quarterbacks in football (21st percentile).
The Minnesota Vikings have intercepted 0.21 balls per game this year, grading out as the 2nd-worst defense in the NFL by this standard
Favors Under
The projections expect the Chicago Bears to be the 2nd-least pass-heavy team among all teams this week with a 49.6% pass rate, given their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics.
The leading projections forecast the Chicago Bears offense to be the 9th-slowest paced team in football (in a neutral context) at the moment, averaging 28.72 seconds per snap.
Windy weather conditions (like the 17-mph being called for in this game) generally prompt lessened passing effectiveness, lower pass volume, and higher ground volume.
The predictive model expects Justin Fields to attempt 29.2 passes in this week's contest, on average: the 4th-fewest out of all QBs.
In regards to protecting the passer (and the ramifications it has on all pass game statistics), the offensive line of the Chicago Bears profiles as the 6th-worst in football this year.
