If the 2014 version of Mike Zimmer’s Minnesota Vikings needed to focus on improving one area, it was very easily their ability to win within the NFC North. Last year, the Vikings lost five of their divisional matchups, with their only win coming at home in Week 17 against an uninspired Chicago Bears team.
This week the Bears are not feeling quite so down on their luck and the fight will take place in their house. The Vikings are undefeated against NFC North teams so far this season, but they have only faced the hapless Detroit Lions thus far.
The Vikings will have to win without Sharrif Floyd in the lineup yet again, but the excitement surrounding rookies Stefon Diggs and Eric Kendricks has the team looking like the superior squad this week.

Can Spielman trade Patterson for Mack?
Almost a must win here. Lose and it's going to be tough to get to 10 wins...really going to need AD to get 120+. Stay strong Defense! Don't over commit, Forte is good.
38 seconds, 2 timeouts. Need about 30-35 yards for a shot at a FG, in a tie game...and you don't even try? I don't get it...I guess no confidence in Teddy after the pick.
Finally a win!!!!!!!!!! I hope Diggs isn't hurt to bad. Blair Walsh player of the game.
About all I can say, is the old cliche: better to win ugly than lose pretty.
Amen to that old buddy! Going to drink a couple cold Colt 45 's tonight and be happy with the win.
Norv;s play calling continues to suck.
Any news on Diggs injury? Teddy ok?
