Your Minnesota Vikings are approximately 24 hours away from lining up against the 3-8 Chicago Bears at US Bank Stadium and, as always the case this time of the year, the games are starting to mean just that much more with the playoff picture coming into focus.
Obviously, not for the Bears, who will be trying to play spoiler the rest of their season.
The Vikings are currently in the 6th of 7 playoff spots, tied with the Seattle Seahawks at 6-5, who hold the 7th spot.
The Packers and Saints hold 5-6 records and are each 2 games out of the playoffs.
