Brian Urlacher and the
Chicago Bears had Adrian
Peterson all bottled up, at
least until it really counted.
Peterson's 8-yard touchdown run,
started by a shoulder-shake to
fake Urlacher at the line of
scrimmage, sent the Minnesota
Vikings to their fifth straight
victory, 20-13 over the Bears on
Monday night.
The Vikings (8-6) stayed in
control of the NFC's last
wild-card spot, despite four
turnovers and a missed extra
point. Tarvaris Jackson threw
three interceptions, his first
bad game in more than one

BEARS:
The Bears like to talk a good
game when it comes to running
the ball, but they've thrown 97
passes in the past two games in
addition to being sacked eight
more times. They've thrown 40 or
more passes in six of the
previous 10 weeks, and that
could be their best bet against
the league's best run defense.
This time around, the Bears
will sell out to avoid the
embarrassment of allowing 311
rushing yards...

VIKINGS: Although the
Vikings beat the Bears in their
first meeting, this is a
much-improved Minnesota team.
Tarvaris Jackson has settled in
at quarterback, meaning if
Chicago focuses on the running
game of Adrian Peterson and
Chester Taylor, it could open up
things for a guy like rookie
receiver Sidney Rice to make an
impact.
On defense, the Vikings
remain next to impossible to run
against. That means Kyle Orton,
who will be making his first
start since the 2005 season,
will be called upon to have
success through the air against
the NFL's worst passing
defense...
