Statistical Breakdown: How Bears and Vikings stack up before Week 12

The Chicago Bears (4-6) will face the Minnesota Vikings (8-2) on Sunday, where Chicago is looking to snap a four-game losing streak and record their first division win.

The Bears are coming off a heartbreaking 20-19 loss to the Green Bay Packers. Rookie quarterback Caleb Williams had his best game as a pro -- where he effectively operated this Thomas Brown-led offense, protected the football and came up clutch to set the team up for a game-winning field goal in his first start against the Packers. Unfortunately, head coach Matt Eberflus declined the chance to advance the ball and make Cairo Santos' field goal easier, and that ultimately cost them as Santos' 46-yard attempt was blocked and the Packers escaped with the one-point win.

Here’s how the Bears and Vikings stack up statistically ahead of Sunday's matchup.
