Christmas came five days early for the Bears this year.
When they needed a win the most, they were able to come away with a crucial 33-27 win against the Vikings to improve to 7-7 and keep their playoff hopes alive.
At no point in the game did the Vikings hold the lead, and although it seemed as though the game was within reach for Minnesota at numerous points, the Bears were able to shut them down. It wasn’t a perfect game, but considering how they’ve played in other games this season, it was still a very good one.
