Week 11 of the 2025 NFL season started with the Minnesota Vikings in a poor situation. The team sat in the basement of the NFC North while their opponents, the Chicago Bears, were second in the division with a 6-3 record.
The Vikings had a few things going for themselves heading into this game. They were undefeated in division games, while the Bears have yet to beat a division opponent or a team with a winning record at this point in the season.
The game was also played at U.S. Bank Stadium, a venue known for having loud, passionate fans.
